It wasn't easy to make this change. In fact, all of her children suffered serious bouts of guilt because of the decision. But after several visits to Mom's new home, we felt we'd done the right thing. She was happy in her new environment. She always looked clean, beautiful, rested and serene. Her medications were always given on schedule and her meals were nutritious and care was taken to insure that she ate regularly with enjoyment. The staff members at Larsens truly care about their patients. They treat them like a member of their own families. Someone was always in attendance when they were needed. We've never regretted our decision to make Larsens our loved one's new home. There is always financial and emotional strain when nursing home care is required for a loved one.
