“Residential Assisted Living" resonates with me because I want to create homes where I would have felt comfortable placing my 97-year-old Granny. I cared for her at home because I never found that level of comfort in a 'Big Box' facility. Owning a RAL home allows me to spend more time with family, teach my kids the importance of following their dreams, and give back to my community by providing seniors with the end-of-life experience they deserve.”
