Willow Springs Memory Care in Redding, CA

5.0
The Willow Springs Alzheimer's Special Care Center community was a good place for Dad. He was only there for about 3 months. It is a well-run place that provided the care he needed. It was also close to my step-mom's house.

A Touch of Heaven in Redding, CA

It's worked out quite well, actually. With what they've got they are doing the best they can. For the price and the quality of care we are really happy with them. It's a good balance with the quality for the price. Aesthetics aren't everything.
