Fifteen
That is the number of residents who live at Angel’s Touch. Caring for this smaller number makes all the difference in the quality of life for your loved parent, spouse, or family member. Angel’s Touch is home. Residents are respected. They form bonds of friendship with other residents and caregivers. Residents are part of a family that gardens, cooks, and travels together. We have parties, visit museums, and watch ballgames together.
