It was a special time at Bankers Hill (CA) this last weekend as team members worked together to set up one of the most heartwarming reunions that we've ever seen. With a few restrictions being lifted in California surrounding senior living communities, the Burritt family was able to visit their loved one for the first time in over a year.

If we have learned anything during this time, it is that we can't take quality time for granted. We can't thank our team members enough for helping create these memories and we are excited to see more of these stories over the coming months. If you would like to see local news coverage of this truly incredible moment please click the video below!

As we continue to progress through and adapt our protocols, we can't wait to see more families share these special moments that we've all been waiting for. We will continue to share these stories whenever we can and as always we wish you health, safety, and happiness!
