I volunteered here a couple times and it seems lovely. The staff were all really fantastic and the place is quite comfortably appointed. The residents seemed content and as comfortable as one can expect when old and in ill health. Certainly seems like a very nice place where people are cared for.

My grandad has been here for a couple of years. The staff are helpful. The size feels right. It doesn't feel like an institution. The common areas feel like home with two pianos we can play on and and different areas to hang out and spend time with grandparents and family.

My Mom just passes away after a year and a half living at the Conva Home. The staff there are just wonderful: caring and professional. I can't speak too highly about them.
