Where Every Moment Matters

Hi, my name is Elaine and my mother is a resident at Certus. One of the main reasons for choosing Certus was that I saw that from the facility she was able to get around. The service that she would be getting. The care that she would be getting. There were places for her to go while she was being watched without her realizing. She felt like a person.

One of the moments that I really enjoyed was walking in and expecting to find my mother in bed because it was possibly nap time. Instead, I found her in the gym, where she was doing exercises. She was using weights. Who uses weights? Not my mother.

She was using the bands, she was on the bike, and she was going quite quickly. I was thrilled.

The care that she is getting here, the people do not push, but they move along at their speed. Their resident’s speed.

My mother happens to eat like a truck driver. She is constantly eating. She has gained whatever weight she lost. She gained it back, so I know she is getting fed and getting fed well, and it is always under a schedule. Everything is when they are expecting it to be.

There is nothing stopping her from moving ahead.
