Review content:
I came to The Center looking for answers four weeks ago. After arriving, and after confessing my hesitancy to trust people in general, I was asked by my Counselor, “Why do you trust me, then?” My answer was, “I believe that most organizations take on the characteristics of their Founder or President. I have observed that Dr. Jantz, a man of faith and prayer, has been devoted to his clients, supporting them through writing books and articles, and as a Clinician for decades. So, based upon that, I chose to come to The Center, and trust my gut." My experience has exceeded my hopes. I observed that the Counselors work together as a team, committed to each client’s whole life care. Clients' teams meet weekly, and sometimes more often, to discuss how each person is doing, and upon reevaluation, often update the schedule. This is to make certain anticipated and newly discovered needs: medical, nutritional, emotional, even spiritual, if requested, are being met. When I say team, I mean more like a family. That’s what the Center feels like, folks committed to the Whole Person. The Staff, from the Admissions Team to the Front Desk to the Counselors, are upbeat, authentic, and share from their own experience. Not once did I feel talked down to, or patronized. As far as the care clients receive, all I can do is compare it to, well, believe it or not, a Cruise. Each week, housekeeping comes into the Center and, if you’ve had the good fortune to vacation on a Cruise Ship, you may remember the little towel animals that housekeeping made and left on the bed. Not quite Cruise bundles, but it is pleasant to come back to a neat bundle of clean white linens, freshly made beds and sparkly clean accommodations. Lunch served is gourmet, professionally made. Plied with fresh fruit each day, no one can complain about going hungry or not eating healthy. The setting is amazing. Perched on the side of a gentle hill, there are stores and restaurants, and a Ferry System to embark upon. Did I mention the Gym, Whirlpool, and Pool? Steam Room.
