Dear Erica,

On behalf of all of our family, I want to thank you and all the staff for the excellent care XXXX received during his time with you. Everyone was always so kind, loving, helpful, compassionate. I appreciate that I was called with reports of even the littlest things concerning his care and health. We trusted all of you to give your very best. 

Sincerely,

My dealings with Ravenwood Care Initiatives was very positive when their caring staff cared for my 94yr old father recovering from a hip replacement. A caring and congenial staff is a direct result of the respect and care they receive from their employers. If I had a medical degree, I’d get a job at this facility in a heartbeat.

Mom entered Sibley Specialty Care under the care of Care Initiatives Hospice. She was only there a week but we cannot express enough how wonderful the care was from both Sibley's staff and the Hospice staff. Our family so appreciated the gentleness and caring shown to our Mom.
