I just want to thank The unit manager on unit 2 for her compassionate and professional service. Her attitude is always positive. When there is a Will…there is a way. She was so kind and knowledgeable. I couldn’t imagine this hard transition being any smoother. Her residents are her top priority. She’s always smiling and doing what she can to accommodate her residents as well as the family. Thanks a million nurse Lisa!!
