None of any consequence.

Suggestions to Management or General Comment

My wife and I moved here in 2003 - she to the hospital (8yrs) and I to an independent apartment (have now completed 16yrs). This facility has been ideal for my family's needs. My late wife was a Parkinson's patient in the hospital for 8yrs and was given 1st class care during which time I was able to bring her to our apartment daily. Since her death I have stayed in the apartment for a further 8yrs with no real concerns with the facility - only praise.
