I visited this facility

I visited Avista Payson. The facility itself is beautiful, and they seem to have a lot of activities, but we felt that my mom needed more care than they could provide. The staff seemed very nice. The rooms were pretty large. The dining area looked very pleasant and had lots of sunshine coming in. It appeared quite clean. They had an outdoor area.

Best experience for the family at a very difficult time

Avista provided end of life care for my father. They did a wonderful job managing his care in cooperation with hospice. He did not like the food but he was a picky eater and also didn't want to eat very much anyway. He was too weak to participate in activities. The cost was very high due to his medical needs. I am very grateful for the care he received. The staff was very friendly and they really tried to make him feel welcome and comfortable even though he was not happy to have to be there. But it was the best pla…

I visited this facility

It was very clean and smelled fresh. Everybody was friendly. The rooms were all updated. Everything and everyone were super nice. The staff answered all my questions and gave me paperwork to take back. She was very knowledgeable. Everybody looked like they were enjoying their lunch when I was there. They were watching the Olympics in the main room and enjoying that. The people were just walking around or were in their wheelchairs.

Best decision ever

First of all I would like to say that this place is just what Mom needed. Mom wasn't doing as well as she could have been living at home by herself. She has neuropathy which can make it unbearable to walk and she also suffers from congestive heart failure. When Mom decided it was time for assistance, we took a tour and SHE decided this was the place to be. We purchased a mobility wheelchair so that she could go anywhere she wanted to and now she has the freedom to even enjoy evenings on the patio! Another factor i…
