Ridge at the Stratford

Merry Christmas to Valerie and her team. I would like to express my deepest and heartfelt gratitude to Ridge at the Stratford for taking care of my mother who was in urgent need of respite care. The personal touch shown by Valerie remains in our hearts as we were able to make a quick decision based on the affordability and availability of this outstanding facility. Valerie (on a personal note) - Your care and efforts to make my mother's stay as comfortable as possible shows your amazing work ethic and love for what you do. May 2026 be an amazing year for you and your team. I will always be indebted to you for your compassionate and caring nature. With many thanks - Kunal

The med tech was writing gave it, but still in the bottle!! The staff acknowledged this via email and in our conversations. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize how bad it was till her TSH tested. Within a month and a half/two months living there her TSH went over 115!!! This caused what the doctors call encephalopathy a swelling of the brain. It’s all documented. Besides my moms issues, a lot of people smelled like pee. My mom was not being showered regularly, I would take her to my house to shower her. The staff was constantly fighting with each other and that trickled down to the residence. The residence meetings often complai
