Our wife/mother was brought to your facility as a result of symptoms of a stroke. She was found to have cancer through the evaluation process. Nicole Darbin went above and beyond. She was always available with a smile on her face and a helpful spirit in her heart to make the stay of our wife/mother as comfortable as possible. She answered our questions honestly and precisely and when she didn't have the answer, she sought the correct resource to get it. She was genuine!! When the news was broken that the diagnosis was cancer, she was there and we witnessed the same tears we faced in her eye. She is a testament to your efforts to comfort and create a healing environment. She is an outstanding, caring young lady that deserves a major pat on the back.
