LETTERS: WONDERFUL PEOPLE SPEED RECOVERY

To the editor:

I started work at Jackson Manor in March 1996. The administration and staff took the time and patience to help me learn the best way to care for residents. They allowed me to take classes to further my knowledge so I could give the best care possible. It goes without saying that the residents deserve the best care possible, and that is what they receive at Jackson Manor.

I recently had surgery and had to take a medical leave. I am recovering and plan to go back to work soon. Even though surgery is no fun, the experience I had while recovering showed me another side of Jackson Manor's care. Not only do they give the best care to the residents, the consideration, thoughtfulness and care they gave to me while I was recovering at home was such a welcome surprise. A day didn't go by without someone calling to see how I was feeling, asking if there was something they could do. You seem to get better a lot faster when you have these wonderful people helping and caring.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone at Jackson Manor for the excellent care they gave to me. It is so nice to know there are still that special kind of people in the world today.
