His room and the overall facility is very clean and inviting. In the almost two years that my husband has lived at Frank Residence he has not asked to come home, not once which is a miracle in itself! While my husband's short term memory is poor, he remains articulate and observant. From what I have observed, the activities for memory care residents at Frank are appropriate and inviting. The ratio of staff to residents in memory care is a real plus as I've noticed that residents receive the attention they need and are encouraged to participate in structured activities. The nursing staff are conscientious and tend to error on the side of being overly cautious which I appreciate. I have been promptly informed whenever my husband has exhibited any signs of being ill and proactive measures were alway taken!" - Susan…
