Dear Gabe,
I am writing you to express my gratitude for your continued generosity. As you know, I have had the pleasure of working within three departments during my employment with Delmar Gardnes: Private Duty, Specialized Wound Management, and Home Care. Regardless of where I work within Delmar Gardens, I am surrounded by coworkers and management who have helped me grow both personally and professionally.
Kathy McClure, the Director of Private Duty, has been especially impactful. She is one of the most dedicated, loyal, and tireless individuals I have ever worked alongside. Kathy’s commitment to Delmar Gardens is evident in the many hours she has given to the facilities, their residents, and all other employees of Delmar Gardens. My time spent working with her has been inspiring and invaluable.
Once again, thank you for your investment in my professional growth. Last week I received my annual review, which was further proof of your kindness towards me. I wish you a happy Holiday Season and a prosperous New Year.
Sincerely,
Kathleen

Dear Delmar Gardens Private Services:
As of June 30, 2014 our mother, Audele, will move from Chesterfield Villas to move to Los Angeles, California. We know that she has really enjoyed meeting new people, participating in the activities, and enjoying her retirement life. After my father’s passing yesterday, she realized that she did not want to live alone. She could no longer go to visit him next door at Delmar Gardens Chesterfield.
All the staff members were very professional, kind, supportive, and considerate of our mother. We would like to thank you for your care, positivity, and most of all the effervescent smiles of people we met.
If anyone asks us where to send their loved ones for assisted living and/or a retirement home, we will let them know that Delmar Gardens Villas is the place to be. Good luck and God speed!
Sincerely,
Earl and Anita

Subject: Delmar Gardens Web Inquiry –
Select Service of Inquiry Type: Employee Feedback
Facility: Delmar Gardens Private Services
Message: My parents, Pat and Lorraine S. live at Chesterfield Villas.
In August of 2017, Delmar Gardens Private Services began Companion Care services because of my mother’s macular degeneration. We have had services twice weekly. Emma and Jennifer are our caregivers. They are very conscientious and my parents are very happy with the service they provide.
Additionally I want to thank several employees in your office who have been very gracious and helpful to me in this process.
Najean has been my primary contact. She has worked very hard to find the right fit of caregivers for my mom. Whenever there is a change in the schedule, she is very prompt to let me know.
Kathy revised the care plan to better fit Mom’s needs. She checks in with my parents to make sure all is going well. Melissa was instrumental in assisting us in the billing process for long term care.
These employees are quality caliber and are a great asset to your company.
I live in Oak Ridge, Tennessee and coordinate this piece of my parents care from a distance.
Your staff makes it easier for me to help my mom and dad.
My sincere thanks.
Regards,
Patty C.

Dear Mr. Grossberg:
In March 2016, my parents Pat and Lorraine, came to reside at Chesterfield Villas. In August 2017, my Mom’s health and eyesight had significantly declined; she is legally blind. At that time, we engaged the Delmar Gardens Private Services to provide companion care for Mom and to give Dad some respite.
Najean Byrd has been my contact for these servcies. She has worked hard to provide quality care and personnel that are a good fit for my parents. She keeps me up to date with schedule changes and I have had the opportunity to meet with her when I come to visit my parents. She gave me a copy of the Care Plan and Kathy McClure visited with my parents and myself to update the plan this past May.
In July on another visit with Najean, Kathy stopped by to chat with me to see how I thought Private Services were going. At the same time, Melissa joined the conversation. We have been trying to invoke Mom’s Long Term Care Plan but with little success. Melissa explained she had been submitting invoices for payment to the insurance company unaware that Mom’s policy had not been approved. The insurance company told her she did not need to submit the invoices and was surprised Mom’s policy had not been activated.
We then arranged for another evaluation for my Mom in September with the Med Life representative. Two weeks late, we received notification of approval. We would have never considered re-applying (this was the third time) if it had not been for my conversation with Melissa.
These women are the face of Delmar Gardens and are committed to providing quality care for their clients. I wanted to let you know these women are outstanding employees and Najean has made my job finding companion care for my parents (from a distance) much easier.
Let me also mention the staff at Chesterfield Villas are always willing to help residents and treat them with kindness and respect.
Thank you for your time.
Patty C.

Dear Mr. Grossberg,
I want to let you know how much I treasure Jordan Conley.
Jordan is a person I can count on no matter what may come up. She goes above and beyond when dealing with anyone (especially doctors’ offices, pharmacies and me.) I really appreciate all she does. She is a wonderful reflection of Delmar Gardens.
Thank you for your high standards!
Sincerely,
Karen S.
