"My dad moved into The Brennity at Daphne. The very first thing I noticed about it was that it's a pleasant and safe location. It has a very nice topology around it with trees. Number two, the first person we met, Jan, was a very good representative. She listened to us and understood where we were coming from. She provided all the details that we needed to make a decision and gave us a tour. The place is very clean. It's newer than the other facility. What really helped us was when we got to my dad's prospective apartment, it was well lit and had a beautiful view out the back, where he could look at a nice view of nature. The director who's over all the med techs, Wanda, is efficient, and she has a lot of attention to detail. I've been working with her almost on an every-other-day basis, just ensuring that my dad's meds and his physicians are set up correctly. I've met almost all the med techs. Every one of them is very sharp, good people. It was a very short timeline, and I needed to get my dad moved from Troy, Illinois, down here. So, they were able to expedite the process and help us get him transitioned in very quickly. I just had one meal there with my dad. The main entree was salmon. It was a bit high in sodium content for me. It's cafeteria food. It's not like going to a white tablecloth restaurant. So, that's just the food, but the service there was a five because everybody was super attentive to us. They have assisted living, and right next to it, they have the memory care. It looks like it's on about maybe 20 acres or so. There is a lot of nature around it. It's a two-story facility, so they have accommodations on the first and second floors. They have a fitness center. My dad, even though he's 92, goes up to the fitness center. He rides the bike up there, but the equipment needs to be updated. It's a little bit outdated. I have a past experience with my in-laws at a facility out of state, for which we paid much more. And it was not anywhere close to what The Brennity is doing. So, I am pleased with the amount that I have to pay for my dad."
