Remarks included comments on the extraordinary new Oasis facility, the level of care provided to residents of both properties and the impact of over 125 new jobs in Worcester.

Guests were entertained by local music star Dale LePage and his band. The food provided for the event was prepared by the culinary staff at the Oasis who took on the challenge and used it to showcase the range of food available to residents at both facilities. “Food is an important factor in helping our residents feel at home in our facilities’” said Micha Shalev, co-owner of Dodge Park and the Oasis at Dodge Park.
