Whaler's Cove provides a safe and comfortable environment for its residents. As employees, we have the opportunity to care for some incredible people who need a bit of help in their daily routine. The level of care offered is less that that in a skilled nursing home. We encourage our residents to be as independent as they can be, supporting them where they have difficulty. We are fortunate to have long-standing staff that provide great leadership and teamwork everyday.
