What makes your organization unique?

Brandy Wotipka, administrator: We are an assisted living and independent living facility built less than five years ago. The purpose was to offer a beautiful community that both residents and their families would be proud to call home. We strive to maintain top-quality care and personal attention to each resident we serve.

What do you like about doing business in a small town?

BW: Ramsey Creek Village was built to serve the community surrounding the Scott City/Kelso area. As a family owned and operated business since 1938, we strive to keep the family atmosphere for every resident.

What may our readers find surprising about your business?

BW: Our dedication to service began in 1938. Those were tough times for the country economically, our commitment to helping seniors in their golden years filled a great need for people who were either alone or forgotten. That tradition remains the same today for those we are helping to care for.
