    I recently had the opportunity to visit Friendship House and immediately felt the distinctive quality of home. The staff, warm and welcoming, the community, engaged, and the environment felt uplifting and well tended. When I myself, or someone I love, could benefit from memory care, I'm grateful we have the caring community of Friendship House.

    The management and staff at Friendship House are amazing. They made Grandma's room as welcoming and comfortable as possible from day one when she was mobile and talkative to her last day at 94 years old. The staff always did their best to accommodate my visits with Grandma and short outings. It's difficult watching one's loved one decline but reassuring that she was always in good hands. Thank…
