Mabel‘s House Reviews
Janelle Keating
I’ve been a resident here at Mabel’s House for a year now, and I can honestly say that I truly enjoy it and am satisfied with my stay. The team here makes me feel very supported and well-cared for, which I really appreciate. When it comes to dining, I’m happy with the food they provide, and the pizza is definitely a favorite of mine. My daily routine keeps me content; I spend a good amount of time watching television on my phone and working on my crossword games. I also look forward to participating in the day program. Above all, I’m just happy to be here because the people at the facility are truly nice to me.
