home with the help you need

They have been very helpful in overall care. The facility has beautiful spacious rooms, but there are some rough areas under renovation since moving in. There aren't many activities, but the ones they have are engaging and heartfelt. My mother says she would like some different food/choices, but is satisfied overall.

If you're looking for a place that's basically room and board, that's the experience we had here.

I know they were short-staffed. And I know Covid had a lot to do with it. We had to make appointments to go and visit, and we couldn't see her room. It was just kind of unhandy. And my loved one needed a little more attention than I thought they were able to provide.

I enjoyed the staff and the residents, but you could tell that the owners did not put much money back into the facility. It was pretty run down, with older furniture with rips and tears and poor lighting in the little common areas. The siding was green and needed to be power washed. The staff were very nice. Not a lot of activities compared to other communities.

THE GOOD LIFE

Joy is my home, I have lived here for 16 years. I want to stay here because of the way they care for me. The staff always call me by my name, and if I ask for something, they simply get it for me quickly. The atmosphere is like 1 big family, I have many friends here and we have lots of fun laughing at ourselves and stories about the old days. we go on trips shopping at several stores. the food is good, home-style we sit at our table and they bring the food just like a restaurant. I get help with showers and laundry. Medically they have a centralized computer pharmacy device that gives me my medication at the right time. Personally, I recommend this home to anyone. But we stay full because nobody wants to leave

Care for family

This is a nice community. The staff is caring to the residents. I like knowing that she is in a clean environment. The menu is good and she seems to be pleased with the variety. The activities are helpful to assist her with staying active. We would recommend this community for the excellent care and value.

Comfort For Mom!!

I would definitely recommend this community because all of the staff are very kind to my mother. She never feels neglected. The place is very clean. The only complaint I can think of is with the meals, they don't have enough fresh fruit and vegetables. I have to take them for her myself. The community has a mixture of activities available at all times. Great community overall.

We have been very pleased..

Overall we have been very pleased. The only thing that we are most disappointed in is the food. Everything else has been going great. My mom has adjusted. They do offer activities here. They have bingo, movies, and they walk around the park. I just wish they had more activities. The location is good. The Joy Assisted Living is a really good community. We are just really pleased with this community.

they've been wonderful

They are very good at keeping an eye on mom, being there when she needs them, give her all her medications on time, etc. They notify me proactively of anything I need to know about. I don't have anything but praise to offer up for Joy Assisted Living, they have really been wonderful.
