The total price was for everything required by state regulations and OSHA standards and was much less than I expected,” Kapr concluded. “After installing plumbing and safety products, all the equipment, cabinets, countertops and other necessities, arrived at one time and everything fit perfectly in place.” Although the single station room is relatively small, Kapr and staff are able to work efficiently together. Kapr states, “Everything is so convenient and right at my fingertips. I enjoy working in it. And it is so easy to keep clean. The most important feature is the venti- lation. It is priceless in protecting our health. It is un- believable.” “We pride ourselves in having the most up-to-date, twenty-first century Care Center in our area and would be pleased to have families tour it,” Kapr said.
