“I was finally able to sleep at night because I knew my mother was being well cared for by the amazing staff at English Rose. The caregivers knew my mother as an individual, and always treated her with dignity and respect. It is hard for me to imagine a more caring or sensitive level of around-the-clock care.”

“As soon as I toured English Rose, I knew this was the place for us. The house setting, the small number of residents per home, and the intimate staff to resident ratio were only the start. From the minute my dad arrived, the caregivers greeted by with a friendly, welcoming, caring touch. For the first time in many years, I didn’t need to visit 4-5 times a week just to make sure he was ok. I got my life back! Later, when my father’s dementia advanced, he always recognized and trusted his care team. They had become like family –every one of them treated him as if he was their own father. In his final days, every staff member wept, held his hand, and whispered the most living things to him. To me, that is the most telling beautiful and telling testimony about English Rose. TO the compassionate and dedicated staff, this was not just another old man dying of dementia, this was a member of their family. I cry as I write this because it was so moving how much everyone at English Rose cared.”

“After serving as my father’s caregiver for 12 years, it was a heart-wrenching decision to move him into a residential facility. But his arrival at English Rose eliminated all my worries. I quickly realized that English Rose was everything I could have possibly wanted for my father. The staff was so compassionate, understanding, communicative, and accommodating. As for my father, he loved it here. On the way back from a doctor’s appointment, he asked where we were going. When I told him we were on our way back to English Rose, he jubilantly thrust his fist in the air and explained, “Yes!”

“My husband moved to English Rose after having been in a traditional memory care unit, where the caregivers were not adequately trained to care for someone living with Parkinsons Disease and had little interest in getting to know my husband as an individual. I chose English Rose because of its high standard of excellence, relationship-based approach to care, and amazingly low staffing ratio. The difference was like night and day. At English Rose, the family atmosphere and compassionate caregivers made my husband feel at home and provided me a tremendous amount of relief and comfort.”

“Working with English Rose has been a phenomenally impressive experience. Each staff member takes the time to get to know the person, not only in the present moment, but who they were before their diagnosis. Witnessing the care at English Rose is heartwarming, the residents are so well cared for and the atmosphere of the home is so warm. I can’t believe a place like English Rose exists. I’ve been in the industry for a long time and can honestly say there’s nothing else like it exists. English Rose is the Gold Standard when it comes to caring for people who need 24/7 support.”

“There are few words that can express the measure of gratitude we have for everyone at English Rose. While it’s true that the homes are all beautiful and warm, it’s the people, both the staff and other residents, that make English Rose so special. The patience and grace our phenomenal group of true care givers gave to mom and us is beyond compare. She was cared for the way we would have cared for her ourselves, surrounded by so much loving companionship. I hope and pray that each member of the English Rose staff remembers on their most challenging days that the work they do is of great purpose, honor, and of the highest calling.”
