“ My mom has been in Avalon since July of last year and everyone has gone above and beyond to care for her and turn her health around for the better. I love all the nurses but I'd love to personally thank nurse Preet Kaur for always being so kind and caring n always making sure my mom is doing good and helping to cheer her up when she's down n most of all just for always being a GREAT NURSE, she is so good at her job!! Thank you all and thank u for making us family feel welcomed when we're visiting. ”

“ My mom was just discharged after approximately 10 weeks at Avalon. I waited until she completed her stay before I left a review because I didn't know if my feelings about Avalon would change over time. From start to finish, I found Avalon amazing. There's not a single person working there that I wouldn't recommend. Some of the highlighted people who made my mom's stay were Preet (my mom loved her and she took good care of her) Emily (this woman is amazing and got to know and advocate for my mom at every turn, and Rani (who is on top of things and took care of everything). Reading some reviews, I think people mistake Rani's matter of fact way of dealing with people as a negative. Rani she shows her care for people by making sure they're taken care of. She does an amazing job with what I'm sure is an incredibly busy schedule. I found her easy to get ahold of and very responsive to any inquiries. She walked us thru all the steps that went from hospital transfer to Avalon until discharge to assisted living. It was all new to us and I don't think we could have done it without her. Sadly, I don't know the names of the people doing the daily big care for my mom (CNAs). She loved her caretakers and had glowing reviews of them and many stopped to give her hugs on the way out. Everyone at Avalon seemed incredibly caring and genuine. If my mom needs another rehab stint, or more significant future care, she has already decided she will go back to Avalon. Oh, and she raved about the food. A+ ”
