Cal,

First, let me thank you and your extended team on the tremendous assistance you gave me while I was visiting The Guilford House. My recovery continues to improve and I owe this to The Guilford House.  Your team has the common understanding and appreciation of what joint replacement recovery is all about. From nursing through physical therapy and hospitality, I was very well taken care of.  Please extend my heartfelt thanks to the many folks who were assigned to my care and all those I bumped into while walking the halls. All of them said hello, were pleasant, and asked if they could assist in some way. You must be very proud of your team.

Best regards, RB  – August 2012

Dear Pat and Cal,

Congratulations on the excellence you have achieved here at The Guilford House!  You deserve all of the accolades one hears out in the community, and I am pleased to have spent ten days with you, recuperating from hip surgery.  It is rare to have the owners of a facility as present as you both are, attending to the needs and wishes of patients way beyond what is requested. Richard was very kind and friendly too.

Thank you especially, Cal for providing the conference room for a mini-reunion of some of my 1959 classmates!  The luncheon was made very special by your presence and the cool, lovely setting on a 1000 day.  The therapy staff was great, as were the meals every day.  I felt I was part of a family while I was here.  Thank you for providing such caring, excellent environment for healing.  I can’t imagine any better place to be.

Dear Workers at The Guilford House:

Because of all of you the Guilford House is an unbelievable, incredible place.  Starting at the top, the owners are on site daily and get to know all the patients by name and condition.  I think if they were asked, they would stand on their heads to make a patient happy.  Once when I wasn’t able to eat the wonderful meals provided, Cal asked what I might like to try.  I said “Maybe a poached egg”.  He went down to the kitchen right then to cook it.  Another time, I saw some root beer and mentioned it brought back memories of childhood.  A short time later Cal arrived with a root beer-float for me. The nurses were pleasant, sympathetic, efficient and knowledgeable.  The nurses’ aids, who have the constant care of the patients, were dedicated.  If anyone gets to Heaven it will be they. 

One night when I was in terrible pain, I actually prayed that Eileen would be my nurse.  I loved so many of them but can’t remember all their names.  There was “Precious” the girl with the beautiful hair, the girl with four children, Lynn, and all who helped me.  They are God’s angels for sure.  The cooks are outstanding.  The gourmet meals – and such a choice was works of art, not only delicious but artfully presented.  Bernadette, the hairdresser manipulated several wheel chairs in her small room, and magically beautifully fixed everyone’s hair.  The housekeeping crew kept the place spotless.  One lady who worked in my room daily, I called Patty Sunshine not Merry Sunshine, because she brightened the room with her happy disposition. The Therapy room was spacious with a nice view of the court yard.  My therapists, Teresa, Gayle and Ginny were outstanding!  Thank you all so very much. I’ll be back to see you when I get better. 

Sincerely, FR – March 2012

Cal:

Hope everything is going well with you.  It has been about 4 weeks since I have been home and meant to write this sooner.  I want to “thank” you, your wife and Richard for my stay at The Guilford House for 25 days.  It was very pleasant and helpful to be there for the rehabilitation time needed with all the disciplines such as nursing staff, dietary, Physical Therapy, discharge, etc.  Especially to you Cal as CEO, and your assistant Richard.  You both have been cordial and seem happy in your positions and even going on beyond and seeing all that’s going on in your facility, your reputation of the Guilford House is out there with the public and word of mouth and my cousin ES and others who have had their loved ones experiencing the care received.  The frequent visits, talks, newspapers every day and all you do for keeping the ship going.  Can’t thank all of you enough. 

Sincerely, JV – March 2012

Dear Cal & Pat:

I wish to thank you both for all you did to make my stay at Guilford House so replenishing. The nightly dinners for two, the morning coffee and daily NY Times, the lovely room and surroundings are just a few of the kindnesses that are responsible for my continued progress. I am doing well at home and look forward to visiting you in the not too far off future! Thank you again for everything!

Most sincerely, PB – October 2011

Dear Guilford House Friends,

Thank you for the wonderful rehab experience at the Guilford House.  The staff, care, food and therapy I received was flawless.  Every friend that visited could not believe how comfortable everyone was made to feel both as a patient and visitor.  My new hip is doing very well all due to your professional care and concern.  Hope to visit soon.

To the Nurses, Therapists & Staff:

I can’t thank you enough for all the hard work you did to get me well enough to go home in a short two weeks. Your kindness and patience certainly made my stay so easy.  Your dedication to your professions is evident every day, every session and even during the night when your swift care to my needs were met.  The word thank you isn’t enough to express how I feel and how much I appreciate all you did.  All the best & God Bless!
