I can’t say enough about the communication I get from the Leadership Team at Bethesda Southgate. Once a week emails are sent to residents’ family members to let us know how things are going. I know that the #1 job of the staff is to care for the resident, but #2 is probably taking care of the family members, and they do a remarkable job of that. I cannot thank them enough.
