Overall would recommend.

All the staff are very pleasant and helpful, everything is kept very clean and the rooms are very nice and are a good size. Due to the nature of Alzheimer's the process of moving in and adapting is a constantly changing and difficult process but the staff at Juniper Glen try to be as helpful as possible. Juniper Glen has many activities to help keep the residents as engaged and busy as possible which set them apart from the other places that we had toured.

Juniper has a lot to offer its residents. The staff seem wonderful, knowledgeable and the amount of activities was exciting for my mom. It was very clean, residents everywhere enjoying their day. Highly recommend Juniper Glen from what I saw. Its was early winter when I visited, but the garden spaces look amazing, and there's one the residents can access at any time.

A Safe Place for your loved one!

It is a very nice, clean community with caring staff. They really focus on memory care. My brother seems to be doing very well there. The staff are very professional at Juniper Glen and seem to care about the residents there. My brother has commented that he is enjoying his meals there. I would highly recommend this facility because of the great attention that is given to the residents. It has a homey feeling and a lot of attention is paid to the well being of everyone living there.
