Hello Patrick, (When your loved one needs more intensive dementia care...)
I wanted to extend a thank you, for meeting with me and showing me your care homes.
I think you and your wife are doing a wonderful thing. There are so many who want to stay in their homes and are not able. You have created that perfect “homelike” environment, providing a safe and nurturing residence.
I will definitely pass along your information to those who are in need and looking for that type of setting.
If in the future, Autumn Leaves can help with anything, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.
I wish you the best of luck and hope to see you at a future networking event real soon!
