Referral service A Place for Mom recognizes senior-living communities for foodservice excellence

A Place for Mom, a referral service to help families find senior-living communities that best fit their needs, has announced 138 Best Meal and Dining Award Winners of 2022. The winners are based on reviews from residents in independent living, assisted living and memory care.
