St. Joseph Villa

Kendra

My mom is currently staying at St. Joseph Villa. We have been pleased with them. I wish they would have small refrigerators, but the room is small. It's nice and clean. She's enjoyed bingo, live music, and chair exercising. Those are the only activities that she's really been involved with. I have not seen them personally, but Mom seems happy with them. Many of the staff do not talk to her enough, and that would be the one change that I would suggest: more communication directly with her. She does not like the food at all. It's a disaster as far as she's concerned, so we bring her hamburgers. It's an older facility, and that makes it less desirable than a newer one, but it's certainly adequate. There are some good things there and some disappointing things. There have been individual caregivers who have been very nice, open, and friendly, but in general the communication is disappointing.

My mother fell and went to St. Joseph for rehab. She was there for a couple of weeks. It's adequate, I thought the staff did a pretty good job. The room is OK, the facility is old, and it was clean.

I didn't like St. Joseph. It was dark and dreary. The receptionist was fine, but what I had been told and what she told me were two different things and there's no way I can afford $2,000 plus more a month. It wasn't acceptable for what I need. The representation was below $1,000, but then they told me it was $2,200 up. I saw their studio apartments and their one-bedroom wasn't big enough to put my bedroom set in. They were putting new carpets in two new places, but they were already filled up. The tour was OK, and I just wasn't happy with the facility. They had a little room where they eat and there were some people sitting in the corner putting a puzzle together. Whatever activities they have is in the same room that they eat in. The apartments were behind everything and the senior living part was in the front. I wasn't happy or pleased about what I saw. The lady who gave me the tour wasn't the one I had an appointment with. She was OK, but she wasn't prepared for it. I didn't like the facility at all. It didn't seem like a happy place.

The physical therapy is good quality. The nurses are few and hard to find. The facility itself is run-down. The staff will say anything to try to convince you not to move out, including misleading you about insurance coverage. If you ask a question who’s answer does not reflect well on them, it is replied with an intentionally convoluted shroud of pure, refined balderdash. Don’t trust them. Do your own research, and do it thoroughly. The food could be rivaled by any economy airline or adult detention center.

Mom was in St. Joseph Villa. They were good and supervised her, but she was able to wander around, so she fell. They checked on her frequently, but you could not be there 100% at the time. They did very nice work for her. The rooms circled around the dining and social area, so they were able to keep good, close watch on their patrons. Every time we went there, my mom had someone with her, and she was out of her room. With her mental state, that was really appropriate.

We had friends at St. Joseph Villa, and we visited a friend who died there. It’s antiseptically clean, and it looked well-staffed. The rooms looked more like a hospital.
