My family and I recently had to find an assisted living / memory care community for our dad. We were lucky enough to be introduced to Crescendo Senior Living, which had a great team that was very helpful in guiding us through the move-in process. Everyone from the Executive Director to the Wellness Director and Marketing Director were extremely caring knowledgeable and supportive.. Although it was challenging due to COVID, we are now confident that our loved one is being well taken care of at Crescendo Senior Living.
