  • Mom’s Life!

    My mom has lived at The Birches for the last three years and I must commend everyone for keeping everyone safe during the pandemic. Cleanliness, friendliness and keeping everyone busy was key for the last few years. Our family recommendation would be to have a liaison established between the staff and family. We would like to be able to be contact a point person with the actions of our loved one. Thanks everyone!
