Caregivers are fabulous! Each client is treated with great attention to making them feel at home. The house is nicely set up, and being a smaller facility food is thoughtfully prepared and eating meals together fosters a true sense of home and family. Can't thank them enough - we'd all be lucky to find this as our housing in our latter years!
My mother was at Croton for about two years before her passing. She was initially upset about having to go to an assisted living facility and her loss of independence, but quickly bonded with the caretakers, especially Mary. She enjoyed her time there and was well cared for. She really enjoyed her time sitting by the pool.
