The Best Senior Living Communities in Jeffersontown, KY

"Facilities such as Storypoint need to understand that their residents are of an age and season in life that they need constant and sometimes over communication. The older an individual gets, the more "consistency" is needed as the individual gets uncomfortable with change - especially if that change is not communicated well in advance. Storypoint in Middletown is an excellent senior facility in many ways. The staff and director are a part of the community with the residents - not just overseeing a program. The facility itself is beautiful, bright and very cheery. Having so many activities and excursions allows the residents to be as involved as they want or need to be. Trips to the grocery store and Walmart allow residents another activity of interaction, but also take care of their needs even when they have no other access to transportation."

"I toured several facilities before finding The Ashton. I thought because it was such a beautiful place it would be out of our price range. It was actually more affordable than most places close to my mom’s home. What sets The Ashton apart is really the staff and I mean all of the staff. They are happy, attentive, caring and engaging not only with my mom but with me and our family. Mom’s one bedroom apartment is perfect and she has everything she needs. More important than everything listed above is that my mom keeps telling us how happy she is there, and doesn’t even miss her home, which is shocking to all of us. She had lived in her home for 62 years and did not want to leave it, but the time came where she knew she needed a little less space, more community, and more available care. We are thrilled with how happy she is being at The Ashton."

"Belmont Village St. Matthews was super nice and wonderful. The lady who gave us the tour was wonderful and super friendly. The place is very high on the list of places we're considering. Everyone was friendly. We loved the space, which was bright, open, and inviting. We liked it a lot. The rooms looked very comfortable and everything was well-done. It was a bright and cheery place, and wasn't dreary at all. It had a more modern, comfortable, and welcoming feeling. It looked like they had a lot of nice, smaller places for conversation for when you have friends or family come over. Everything wasn't just a big open space. The dining spaces were nice as well as the place where they do movies. It had a nice feel to it."

"We loved BeeHive Homes of Lyndon. It's a wonderful place. It was smaller and I would give them an excellent review. We had a friend that was there for several years and they just raved about it. The room was lovely. Everything was nice and clean, and the staff was wonderful and very attentive. I walked in and I just immediately loved it. There were also many activities and they had the director there that does it all."

"I went to Creekside on Whipps Mill for a tour. Everything seemed to click. It has much better security. I felt much more at ease about it. It is also based on a family-type program where they brought everybody together, like for meals and whatever. They were very friendly and very caring. We got to talk with some of the people in memory care. They came up to us and asked us about my brother. They seemed like they would be able to take care of his needs. They were very clean, and they had so much stuff to offer."

"My mother has moved into Traditions at Beaumont. What I like most is that all the people who work there are nice and friendly. My mother's caregivers watch over her very well. I'm very happy with the place. The staff members are the best. The building is very nice and very well-kept, too. They have a good variety of food and nice choices like fruits, vegetables and meats. It's a very nice meal. The rooms are very nice, too. They're all a little bit different, but well taken care of with fresh paint, and the floors are always kept nice and clean. Some are more spacious than others depending on whether a couple or a single person is living there. As for the atmosphere, they have an activities director who always gives them little games and little projects, so everybody seems happy. They've decorated pumpkins. They do a little bit of crayons and painting. They made little bird feeders out of bagels and put seeds on them with peanut butter for the birds to enjoy. They've got a lot of projects. I highly recommend it."

"I'm in Brownsboro Park Retirement Community. The people that work here are very friendly and very helpful. They have a nice place if you want to take a walk. The grounds are nice. They provide lunch and dinner, and sometimes they have breakfast, too. With regards to activities, they have an area downstairs where they may have somebody come in and entertain the residents, like playing a guitar and singing. They have movies down there on certain nights and stuff like that. In the rooms, the kitchen is fully equipped with a stove and a refrigerator. It's a nice place."

"I went to tour Village Crossing. It was a wonderful visit. We truly enjoyed the young lady who gave our tour. We loved everything about it, but it's out of my income bracket. The facilities were outstanding. I was really quite impressed because I did not expect this. In the apartment they have full kitchen like a full-sized refrigerator and a full stove. I was just totally impressed because I was not expecting full service. As far as the facility itself, that was the most impressive thing for what I would be able to utilize, and that I would not have to be restricted to the menu and the meals that they have. But what they had today was great. We enjoyed the lunch that we had there. They also have a full-sized washer and dryer. The staff member who gave the tour was very accommodating. The person who I met with initially was just standing in for the person that I had the appointment with, but they both were very friendly. The staff member took me through the whole facility to show me everything that they had to offer. And my son said it was like being on a cruise ship. Everything was really nice. We thoroughly both enjoyed it. And they have so many things to do there. I was just really blown away."

"Sunrise of Louisville was very nice and very clean. I liked the rooms. The staff answered all my questions and were very nice. I liked it. It was a nice layout. I know some of the places I toured didn't have a memory unit, and Sunrise did. I liked the rooms. I think my furniture would fit in there nicely. The atmosphere was nice. They had a nice entryway and a nice open lobby."

"Vitality Living Springdale was extremely nice and clean. The staff was great. The food was good, and that was a big thing. It was a nice place. I like the fact that they can order off of a menu; I like that a lot. That is one of the big things. They have an exercise area and a movie theater. And then they have snacks and stuff for the residents in the dining area."

"Magnolia Springs East was beautiful. They had a lot of great activities on a calendar and activity rooms, but my father is going to need skilled care and my mother needs personal care. The rooms were beautiful and fantastic, and the staff was really helpful and nice."

"I am a resident of The Grand Senior Living. It's a beautiful place to live. The people are very friendly and they make you feel at home. The food is delicious, including all the meals and snacks. The place is new. It's only been open for four and a half years and everything is well-appointed. I am gradually getting moved in because you provide your furniture. It's set up with a living room area, a fully appointed kitchen, a washer and dryer, a one-bedroom, and a large bathroom. I have a balcony that overlooks a wildlife area and it's a very quiet place to live. The layout of the building is very easy to get around and they have elevators everywhere. They have lots of classes offered. I've already been to a yoga chair class, there are plenty of offerings every day, and it's one of the few places that has a heated pool."

"My parents have been at Story Point for two years, and we are very happy with the environment and care they receive. The staff is kind, caring and professional, and always willing to help my parents in any way they can. The facility is clean and well-maintained and Management has always been available and responsive to our needs. I would highly recommend Story Point for assisted living and senior care."

"We visited Inspirations of Mount Washington which was very nice. The price is reasonable, and the facility was very clean and didn't smell. The staff was very friendly, they didn't know we were coming because we just popped in. We talked to some of the residents there, it seemed like a happy place to be at. They're affordable but they offered a lot of services and you could bring your pet. They had like an apartment there, each person had their own space and you could bring your own furniture. Whenever someone moved out, they replaced the carpeting, and repaint it, so everything is clean, new, and fresh when you come in. And the residents got to sit in the dining room with menus and order what they want to eat. They had a therapy place there for those who need therapy. The thing I liked about it was when your insurance finishes paying for your therapy, they were willing to pay for it out of pocket, and that was an option. A lot of other places, when your insurance is down they say that's pretty much all they can do for you. You bring your own furniture, but it had a little living room area, it had a shower, it had a toilet that had like rails around it where you can lift yourself better for those who can't get around very well. They had the pull cords all over the place to where if you fell or something there was help immediately available. They come in every day and help you get your medicines, help you get dressed, help you with the shower. If even if the patient was incontinent, they would help you with that. Their thing is you had to be somewhat mobile, whether it be on a cane, a walker, or a wheelchair, you just had to be able to be a one-person assist. The room had a microwave and a refrigerator in there, there was no stove. And also the family could spend the night there because it was her own apartment. The fee for it was $5500 a month but it included everything, including all the activities. The only thing it did not include was therapy or the beauty shop. They had a beauty shop there if you want to get your hair done and they would do manicures. But just overall, it looked like a hotel when you walked in and then each person had their own separate little apartment. They come in and clean your apartment for you a couple of times a week and they do your laundry for you. They have menus, and if you didn't like what was on the menu, then they had items they served every day. But they had specials on the menu every day. If your family member wanted to come and have lunch with you, you pay $5 and you could eat lunch with them. If you want to have a little slumber party with your mom, you could do that. If you're under palliative care, which our mom is for pain management, they could come in and continue their palliative care. If mom took a terrible turn for the worse and we needed hospice, we could also do her hospice care there in the room. But let's say you need more care like where you are bedridden but you're not considered end of life, then you would have to move. They also had a recreational area and somewhat of a party room, so let's say we wanted to have mom a birthday party there, the whole family could come there. You just reserve it, you tell them in advance. And it was a pretty big space too, you could bring pizzas, or if you wanted it catered or whatever, you have the space right there to have a family gathering. And I like that they had movie night with popcorn for the residents and it just didn't feel real nursing home. The person who gave the tour was Debbie. She was very kind and compassionate, all the residents spoke to her as we walked past. The facility was very clean and looked brand-new. It was very wide and open, where people could navigate very well with wheelchairs, walkers, and scooters, and there was plenty of room for people to move around."
