The community of Juniper Village at South Hills is nice. It's very clean and the people are friendly. They all seem to be good. Originally, my mother was in a single room, and when I moved her upstairs to memory care, she now shared a room with another lady. She has a twin bed, a dresser, and a closet. So as the other lady. It's very clean. They do a good job. They come in every day and they clean. They have a dining area in their memory area and if they need help as far as cutting their food or even feeding themselves, there's an attendant on hand to help deal with that. I was there yesterday, and they had a drummer come in and do drumming and singing. A friend of mine was there every other day and she said that my mother went to some activity that they had, but she just stayed in a room until my mother came back. I also know they have various activities, and they have a movie night for them at the place. They're very patient with the people. For the various holidays, they decorate the facility and they have activities that are related to some of the holidays. I know they had just had an activity for Mardi Gras. Easter is coming up so they have some decorations up for Saint Patrick's Day. The food looks good. My mother said it doesn't have enough salt on it, but it looks good.

I went to Juniper Village at South Hills. Everybody there was very nice. The administrator was very nice, friendly, and very thorough with the walkthrough. They're going through renovations. And so the place is immaculate. It's beautiful. The apartment sizes like the studios are a nice, decent size. And then they have the one-bedrooms, and those are also nice. And what they're doing as residents move out, they're renovating each room individually to just update them. And so it is a lovely place. It's so clean and so friendly, and a great atmosphere. My mother has an onset of dementia. So even the lockdown wards, if once they evaluated her, she would be in a lockdown ward. But as long as she has an aide with her, she's able to go outside and do everything, she just can't do it independently. And they've got plenty of recreational areas and little like snack downs if you will. So if they want to have like an afternoon snack or a drink or something like that, that is all available. They have plenty of activities. I looked at the activity calendar and they've got a lot of stimulating activities. Also, I looked at a sample of their menus and it had a lot of great food choices.

Juniper Village at South Hills was wonderful for my mom. It looked like a wonderful place. It was very clean. They offered a lot of different activities. It was very bright and clean. I loved it. If I was going into a place myself, I would love to go there. They were amazing. The woman who showed us around and stuff was wonderful, but the only problem is that it's just too far from my home. With regards to food, my mom is very, very picky but they have a program where my mom could choose what she likes to eat. They would be able to prepare meals for her that she would enjoy.

This is the second facility my mother has been in and we really expected more when we moved her but I think they tell you what you want to hear just to get you into the place. The cost was over $2,000 higher and we had the same issues. Slow or no response to pendant, not taking to the bathroom regularly, skipping showers on a regular basis (10 days with no shower). The worst part was leaving her sitting around in a soaked Depends to the point where her clothes and chair also got wet. When you're paying over $7,000 per month you expect to get decent basic care as far as toileting and showers but you don't even get that.

My tour of Juniper Village at South Hills was nice. The staff was friendly, and they were adequately staffed. They had a nice dining room. We saw the dining room, while dinner was being served. They give you plenty of options. The facility was clean. It looked like a big mansion with a homey feeling. They have activities, movie nights, and festive parties around the holidays. It was a nice place.

My father-in-law has moved into Juniper Village at South Hills. The staff is what made us want to go with them. So far, I've been very happy. We haven't had any issues. The staff is very helpful. My father-in-law seems to like the food and it's a good variety. The facility wasn't overly over-the-top, which was good. It's a nice facility. I don't know a whole lot of the activities, but I know he's been to a few of them. $6170 per month is not a good value for anything, but it is what it is.

I went to Juniper Village at South Hills. I would give that one a poor rating. It's dirty. It's completely outdated. It looks grand from the outside, but the inside is not kept. The rooms weren't that great either; they were small. It looked very nice from the outside, but not very good on the inside. They have like a one-tier salon, too.

My mom has been living in Juniper Village at South Hills for a year now. They changed management, and the prices went up. After I talked to the manager, the price was lowered. They're very caring. She gets excellent care. The place is very clean and she's always very clean. The meals are good. So my mom's room is very nice. She has a bathroom, a sink set up, a shower. I have hospice coming in. They got her a hospital bed. Her room is always clean. Well-kept. The staff is very caring, they're a nice group of people. I have no complaints about staff. In the dementia unit, they have noodle exercises. There are pool noodles, coloring, and they have crafts.

It was wonderful. They're smaller than other facilities and the rooms seemed a little small to me, but everybody seems happy and well taken care of since there's a little more one-on-one care there. The food situation and entertainment are excellent. There's a more intimate relationship between the staff and the people because there are less people. The staff was great and it's a very nice place. They have lots of entertainment and they have a very good chef.

It was a beautiful facility. They had sweet people there. The rooms were smaller. There were stairs or elevators. The person that brought me around was really friendly. Their dining room was gorgeous. It was like a 5-star dining room.

It was beautiful. You felt more at home since it wasn’t chopped up into living spaces for different places. They have somebody who would take residents to the dining room if needed. That was really nice because we weren’t quite sure how much my cousin would be able to do or not be able to do. They had a place where my cousin could play cards with the guys, plus a pool table and stuff like that too.

It was OK. The person that took us around was more like a glorified receptionist because the person who was supposed to take us around was not available. The memory care was in a completely separate locked-down floor. It was a lot bigger than the other places I saw, which I think would be harder for my in-laws. The room that I saw was just a bedroom. Even the apartment was quite small, like a studio. It wasn't going to work, but the place looked really fine. They had activities going on while I was there, and I saw an occupational therapy going on. They had a big living room with a big TV and the people were sitting around watching.

My mom is now in the memory care unit. They are very attentive and very caring. She is in lock down because she was wandering. However, they do bring her downstairs and let her participate in the assisted living activities like bowling, bingo, and cards. Honestly, we are very happy with it. We have seen her meals, and they also get to eat what the assisted living patients are eating. For the first week she was there, I had probably called 4 or 5 times a day just to check on her, and the staff was very accommodating and very nice. I also had the executive director call me for the first week just to let me know how she was doing. They are absolutely wonderful. She has like a small apartment, but there is enough room for a bed, a night stand, a dresser, a comfortable chair, a TV stand, and a table. She also has a little kitchenette with a refrigerator and a microwave, and her own bathroom.

It was a little bit smaller facility. However, I think they have a good location. I like their location. Though the facility wasn't able to take a wide range of individuals; but it seemed like a very pleasant community. It was peaceful there. There were nice people there too. They were most caring. They have activities for the residents but they also have support programs for family as well.

I toured the facility for assisted living for my mom, an Alzheimer's patient. While the tour was very informative and helped me make my decision to place Mom there, I would have liked to know at the beginning that we could also have hospice care, if she qualified. She is now on hospice, but she could have been before now. The home is an excellent environment for Mom. She is comfortable, happy and safe.
