Before Jeff Young worked with senior adults, he worked with animals. In fact, that’s how he developed his passion for seniors – by sharing a common interest in canaries with a senior. After semi-retirement from the pet business, Jeff was approached by a friend to simply provide maintenance services at a skilled nursing community. The next thing you know, Jeff is the Admissions Director for Briarcliff Haven, a 165 bed skilled nursing facility and subacute rehab center. To contact Jeff, or arrange a tour, call (404) 875-6456. Briarcliff Haven is also on the web at www.briarcliffhaven.com.
