    Beautifully restored WWII Air Force hospital. Great location and view of Bay. Looked at several places before deciding to settle my wife in a room there. Care staff and management has had a lot of turnover in past year. They have handled that well. Special shout out to Jennifer in placement. She was more than a sales person. Felt she advocated for the best placement for my wife.

    Hamilton Bluffs is a beautiful facility and our tour was comprehensive. Our tour guide, Doug, was professional and caring. He knew every person we encountered; he clearly cares about the people and is passionate about his job. The facility was immaculate and is situated in a beautiful setting.
