Neither my brother nor I will ever again travel by Arleigh Burke Pavilion or think of it without a very warm feeling in our hearts. During her over four years as a resident, our mother was extremely happy. She often exclaimed how lucky she was to be a resident. The staff took exceptional care of her, involving her in numerous activities, tracking her health, attending to her needs and contacting us promptly whenever a health problem arose. You provide the standard of care both families and residents desire."
