Celebration Villa of Teays Valley

I toured the Celebration Villa of Teays Valley. I loved the outdoor courtyard area that they have. I talked to January, who's the director there, and she was very helpful in answering my questions and giving me the tour. She's very nice and even followed up with me. I saw both their assisted living and memory care when I was there. They really need to do some updating because it's an older building. She said they're going to be doing some renovations in the spring. The facility needs to get a facelift and update the appearance of the inside lobby and stuff. I like how the director interacted with the residents there at the facility. Some man came into her office and she interacted with him and talked to him, she treated him like he was her dad. She invited me to come back and bring my mom and dad up there for lunch.

Celebration Villa of Teays Valley was very rundown. When we walked into the memory care center, the smell hit us in the face. It's not well kept. It was a no since I walked in the door. The staff was very friendly and seemed to be paying attention to the patients and things. There was not a problem with the staff at all. It was just the facility itself. They showed us one room and it was very run down and it had just a horrible odor. They were having lunch and that smelled good. I had asked about an outside space, and the staff walked to the end of the hall, opened the door, and showed us a little concrete pad and two little chairs in there. That was their outside space. It was nonexistent, in my opinion. The dining area was very small and very cramped. If your relative was incontinent and had to have Depends and things, you had to pay for that. It's not an all-inclusive price.

We toured Celebration Villa of Teays Valley. The staff who assisted us was very thorough and she was very open to showing us around and offering us opportunities for visits with my father there to find out whether he would do OK there or not. She went over and above what was necessary for her job. The facility was nice. There was nothing that I saw there that would be detrimental to anybody's health. They seemed to be on top of things. They were feeding good meals. And from what I could see, there was a medical staff there to take care of needs. The rooms were nice. She showed us three different rooms, and they were all nice to us. You have to bring your own furniture. I think they need to be a little more competitive in price because they were a little higher than everybody else.

I liked the activities that they have and the staff seemed to be engaged with the residents. It had a very home-like environment too. When we first entered the facility, they had music playing in the 60s, so there's happy music playing and I felt positive about the place. The residents were visiting with each other in the big room, and there was a fire going in the fireplace while they were socializing. They have an activity where they study other countries, which is very nice, also Bible study each day for the residents, and a social hour in the evening. There was a resident working on a puzzle and one of the employees was helping him with that. I saw the room that my mom's going to be in, and it was spacious. They're going to replace the carpet, have it painted before she arrives, place a new vanity in the bathroom. and everything in the facility seemed very clean. We met the director, we met the person who's in charge of cleaning the facility, and some of the different people that take care of the residents, and they were all very friendly.

Our experience with has so far been very good. I like the ease and availability of getting my parents in and getting them taken care of. I didn't really see the rooms up close and personal because of the lockdown, so I just did a virtual tour, and the rooms looked very nice. Their dining area was very good. They have a library, book club, and multiple activities.

My aunt is happy here. I feel her health has improved because she's getting fed regularly, and she's getting the right medications on time. She likes the dining experience there. The staff is very friendly and helpful. She has nothing but positive things to say. They go on weekly trips and and there's an exercise room. Her room is just a bedroom with a private bath, but they have different room options.

My mother moved in, and we're happy with it so far. It's homey and clean, and everyone there has been helpful. It was close to where my sister lives, and they had a room available. The staff has been fantastic, and the food appears to be really good.

It is very clean, very uplifting, and cheery. All of the residents seemed to be happy, and the staff has been wonderful to my mom. She loves the activities and likes the food. She is eating very well and enjoys going to the dining room. It has a homey environment. They get to sit at the table and be waited on like in a restaurant.

We have mother placed here. It’s more family oriented. They have all three meals. The staff is good, very warm, friendly, and helpful. They have activities, church, bingo, sing-alongs, and have people come in from the outside to talk to the residents. They have a Super Bowl party tonight. They have a therapy room, a barber and hair stylist come in twice a week, and a doctor and nurses on-staff. They have a shuttle service back and forth from doctors' appointments.

I am impressed with this community. The people over there are just wonderful. It is very friendly and very clean. The staff is all very nice. They give my mother a lot of attention. I am afraid that she may have trouble adjusting, but she was at home within a couple of weeks. They have lot of activities. They take them out to eat. They play bingo and do puzzles, and they have lots of different people that come in to provide music. They have religious services probably two to four times a week for the elderly. They have family night every month. The families are invited to eat with their parents at any meal time. I have two or three meals over there, and what I have tasted has been very good. I have a lot of friends that go and visit mother, and they are surprised at how nice they are compared to some of the other ones.
