Response from management
Meagan, we recognize the pain you and your family experienced in losing a loved one, and send our deepest sympathies. We cared for your mother diligently amidst her very aggressive decline and did our best to communicate her rapidly changing needs and recommendations for her care. We would be more than happy to sit down with you and have a conversation about your feedback, and want you to know your mother meant a great deal to us. We look forward to speaking with you. Please give Katie a call at 773-433-1800.
