Testimonials from Patient’s Family:
All of them seemed great in Hope Harbor. It is a terrific place. The nurse just “loved” my mom so much. It was what she needed and made me feel she was in good hands.
When mom was admitted, you took the time to document how to put her neck brace on correctly with notes and photos. It was important to us that you cared enough to get it correct!
