The staff are angels on earth providing a level of care that has truly been transformative for both my family and my dad as we transition him to long term care. Love. Love. Love.

Shadowridge has been the best facility my father has been at hands down. The staff are great and activities and efforts to make it a warm and friendly environment are evident. He is cared for very well and is a big relief to know he is in good hands in between visits.

This week marks my mother in law’s one year anniversary at Shadowridge. She’s come a long way in a year. She’s improved so much that she’s able to get along more independently and has the freedom to come and go around the facility on her own. She enjoys the beautiful garden whenever she likes, and loves the food, happy hour, Family Night, and the friends she dines with at every meal. We are so pleased with how this transition has turned out. None of this would be possible without the management team, care staff, the wonderful chef, and the whole support team that makes Shadowridge the warm and caring place it is.
