Schowalter Villa — Local services in Hesston

My grandmother (now 96) has lived in a variety of neighborhoods here for many years, and I have been super impressed. The food is A++ from freshly cooked hot breakfast to good snacks to a wide variety of choices at each meal. Each neighborhood focused on a special type of residents so that residents can support one another and the staff can provide expert care. I have never seen such caring staff or good food at a place like this ever. There are lots of activities from kids coming in to men’s choir practice and performance. The activities staff know all the residents and their relatives. The place has always been super clean and the degree of respect afforded to residences is amazing. Each room is custom decorated with items for each resident. This place really seems to be run with God in mind and with a real focus on the residents. God bless all of you for the amazing service you have provided...
