Betty Pleva - A home away from home.

When our loved ones are in need of assisted living, they are sometimes fearful, resistant, and reluctant to leave their secured home environment. My Mother, Betty, had concerns about living in a Board and Care home, but when she was greeted by the smiling and soft spoken caregivers at Irvine Cottages, she began to feel at ease at her new home.


The Irvine Cottages offered several weekly activities for Betty to participate in. She was involved with art projects, music activities, and a daily exercise program. Betty immensely enjoyed the monthly holiday activities and especially, decorating the house for that particular holiday and of course, the elaborate birthday parties, picnics, and outings.



Mainly, it was every detail of her care that made her comfortable and confident about living at the Irvine Cottages. The trained caregivers are very diligent, understanding, loving, caring, and personable. The cheerful and calm ambience of the Irvine Cottages made this a home away from home for my mother.
