PEABODY RETIREMENT COMMUNITY

I am pleased with how much communication has improved since my parents arrived there abruptly a year ago. They could improve on the Flavor and options of the food. Mom likes to eat healthier. She misses fresh fruit, chocolate and lettuce/salads.

If my mother-in-law had to go into memory care and her husband could stay in the assisted living, they would be right there t…
