Communities in Monroe, UT

"Monroe Canyon is a very nice assisted living. When my dad got there, he started to go downhill and his dementia got worse. They couldn't keep him because they're not licensed for that. Nevertheless, he loved the food there. It was home-made and had the best dessert. Every day they had activities but they didn't get out of the building much. Because residents were more mobile, families would come and take them here and there, so they're not as restricted. Some of the staff were very respectful and caring of my father, but others were very intolerant. Since my father is very hard of hearing, he went to the activities but did not participate. However, the staff wanted him to stay in his room most of the time, which I didn't like."

"I have visited this facility many times as a youth and as an adult. My church goes and visits the live in members once a month sometimes even twice. We take our youth there to sing them songs and read or just talk to them. I have always found the facility to be very clean and tidy. The nurses and employees are always very courteous and kind to those that visit and those that live there as well. Which I think is the most important thing when looking to put someone with special needs into an assisted living facility. The people who live there are usually always visited by people from the town. Sometimes the employees even book concerts for them from the local schools for special occasions such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, even mothers and father day too. I have participated in many of these occasions and to see the faces of those in the facility and that they are happy gives you a very warm feeling inside. "
