“Dear Dr. Arcidi: The intent of writing this letter is to applaud a most competent CNA in the Mayfair unit and also commend the Sippican Healthcare Center in Marion for employing such a fine professional person as Mr. Jean Wilhelm. Mr. Wilhem is a talented role model who is caring, compassionate, encouraging and respected with the Mayfair population. He has been instrumental with my father’s greatly improved health using his “Midas Touch” nursing skills. If Sippican has a tuition reimbursement program for continuing education it would be a great gain for Whittier Management to offer this to Mr. Wilhelm.”

“Thank you again to everyone at Sippican that was involved in the care of my dear wife. Her days were filled with love and comfort, thanks to the excellent staff at Sippican. From the Program Director of the wonderful woman who cleaned her room, everyone displayed for. The outpouring of love and care that was shown by the staff was truly touching. I have never encountered such a caring group of employees; If you ever need any recommendations, please don’t hesitate to call me.”

“Few family decisions can be more painful than the recognition that a loved one needs to be placed in a nursing home..In the last eight years, our family placed its faith in Sippican Healthcare Center in Marion. We entrusted, until their deaths, four critically ill family members: an aunt, a father, a husband and most recently our beloved mother. It is difficult to find adequate words to describe our connectedness with Sippican. In the case of each family member, our faith was well-placed.”

“I have visited several times and each time I was impressed by the capable ways things were managed. Always I was greeted by everyone with great respect and of course, the good natural banter that was so uplifting. You have a great and capable crew working here. I shall always remember the excellent treatment I received. Bless everyone of you.”

“Having spent two weeks in the rehab service of the Sippican Healthcare Center, I can say I was thoroughly pleased with the care I received. In this day and age, it is all to common to run into medical facilities which are cold, automated and inhuman in their approach. At Sippican, I met with a warm and caring staff while taking care of all my needs with warmth and interest, which led me to feel that my recovery was the most important thing to them. For this I am eternally grateful and can give anyone contemplating a situation undertaking to mind, my ungratified endorsement. I am glad my recovery is continuing after and please extend my heartfelt thanks to all the staff who made my stay such a success.”
