HEALTHCARE HAS DRAMATICALLY CHANGED SINCE 1970 WHEN THE LONG-TERM CARE UNIT WAS BUILT, HOWEVER, THE QUALITY OF CARE, COUPLED WITH THE FAMILY-LIKE ATMOSPHERE, HAS REMAINED UNCHANGED. IF THE FACILITY DID NOT EXIST, FAMILIES WOULD HAVE TO TRAVEL OVER MOUNTAINOUS TERRAIN TO RECEIVE LONGTERM CARE SERVICES. WHILE THE FACILITY ACCEPTS ALL MAJOR INSURANCES, PRIVATE PAY, MEDICARE, AND MEDICAID, THE MAJORITY OF THE PATIENTS (APPROXIMATELY 70%) HAVE MEDICAL ASSISTANCE.
