āI have recommended Windward Life Care to several of my friends. I most appreciate the flexible approach to care management. When I am in a place of stability with my momās needs, I know you are in the background, just a phone call, e-mail, or text away. That is exactly what I was looking for when I began searching for a support system.ā ā L.L.
