St. John Towers

I went to visit St. John Towers about 2 years ago to look at their independent living for myself. I enjoyed the walk-through, and I liked the small apartments. The kitchenette was also nice and I was pleased with it. They served one meal a day and I think it was breakfast that they served early in the morning. The staff who showed me around was very kind. The apartments they had were 1-bedroom ones, that had one bath, a kitchenette, a living room, and a dining room area. I was pleased with them. However, it was the price that I was not happy with.

I love living here. The residents and staff are caring and friendly. There are alot of activiies from line dancing to bingo, excercise classes to wellness classes. It is a diversed community. My dog with me and my car is in a well lit parking lot, with security, cameras. The St. JOHN tower community can fill your spiritual, social and mental health exceptations. And because the walls are ciderblock, fire is not a predominant worry. I feel very safe here and II really do not think I can find a better value anywhere else.

I checked into St John Towers. It was in my price range, but it was too far from my house. I didn't like it. It seemed like an apartment building with cement walls. They only had one laundry room and it was not a good laundry room at all. They definitely need to update the building and the grounds. The staff was really good, they answered all my questions, they were accommodating, and friendly. They only offer their residents one meal a day. The parking was ample, but it was confusing at first.

St. John Towers is in a very questionable part of town concerning safety there have mutable assaults and shooting just blocks away, parking is inadequate. Security is average. People approach you for money in the parking lot. Workers need more supervision issues are not addressed such as the cleaning in general. Also supposed to be a senior apartment not a nursing home. People in wheel chairs hit the walls that are not repaired promptly. There are only 2 elevators for that large place long wait especially if someone is moving in or out or a special event. I will not live there.

I would be moving to St. John Towers on Tuesday. The staff was very good. The apartments had a living room, a separate bedroom, a nice size bathroom, and a little area for a kitchenette with a little area where you could put your table and chairs. They had a stove and a refrigerator. They served meals 6 days a week. They had so many activities every day. They would take you on shopping trips and to your doctors. It was really great, and the people were so friendly. I was not able to eat there, but they gave me a sample menu, and it looked really great. They had a security guard there 24 hours a day. They also had a system for you to use, they would put it on your neck, and they a thing on the wall that you could pull when you had a problem. They also had a button that they would push so they would know that you were there. I was impressed by the residents there who were so outgoing and kind. They said I would like it there. It was fantastic and I was so blessed. They even had an aviary where they had different birds. It was just super and more affordable than the other places that I looked at.

My mother is at The Plaza at St. John Towers. Where she is living now, she has no stove because they give them three meals a day. They have a lot of entertainment. They have a salon and an exercise room. Also they have different pastors that visit them, and they have Bible study. It is a very nice place. The caregivers are nice; however, they'll tell you straight that it is not their job. They don't even assist my mom getting into her bed anymore. She is in a wheelchair, and she has to scoot herself around to get into her bed, and whatever way she falls to the mattress, that is the way she stays because nobody bothers to put her in there correctly. The facility is very attractive. They keep it very nice. It is very well run. However, they really need to improve on their workers. They need a strong supervisor over them.
