and satisfaction, as the survey measured
what we do for our residents on a daily basis, around
the clock, day in and day out, throughout
the year. This survey validates

worked at several other places and this was just the
best. At Doolittle Home a nurse is able to spend

"We have
visited many facilities in Massachusetts and
New York and nothing compares to Doolittle
Home. We did not worry about the quality of
care for mother at all. The staff was
always helpful and they went out of their
way to do little things to help her."
-- Judy, about
her mother Marjorie, a former Doolittle Home
resident
