Testimonials

"My mom, Evelyn Knoll, was a resident at Cedar Crest of Silver Lake. I must tell you that your staff and facility at Silver Lake is WONDERFUL! Prior to Mom's move to Cedar Crest from another Long Term Care Home, she spent most of her time in her room and was very unhappy. After her move, she was very involved in daily activities with several other residents and staff. She was cared for with respect and kindness."
