My oldest daughter, an R.N. with a Master’s degree in Geriatric Nursing, has in her career visited and inspected more than forty assisted living residences. “I have never seen one that matched Pacific Gardens,” she tells me. But I don’t need her professional opinion to know what an extraordinary home my husband and I have found. The owners/designers knew that human beings want a world of space and light, color and beauty, with a connection to Nature. They want delicious and interesting food. They want companionship and stimulating activity. But above all, if they need assistance, they want to receive help from caregivers who give it with affectionate respect. We have found all these good things and more at Pacific Gardens.
