Joe's Place is a Godsend. The place feels very homey and not institutional. I feel very comfortable leaving my dad there while I go to work.
I had been using this location for day care but as my husband's condition got more severe I decided that keeping him here would be the best thing. The staff is wonderful they treat him so good. The communication between myself and the staff is wonderful. They express genuine concern for the residents. They try and encourage them to participate in the appropriate activities. The community is always clean well maintained
