Juniper Communities

Excellent facility. Competent and helpful caring staff. Highly recommend.

My family and I enjoyed our visit to Juniper village at State college, PA and our tour with [names removed]. Although Im not quite ready to move I have told her im definitively interested in moving to and living there within the next 6 months.

I toured several memory care communities to find the one that was best for my wife, and when I visited Juniper Village I knew right away that I had found the right place. She has now been there for two months and I feel that my initial impressions were correct and that Juniper Village is where she should be. The "neighborhood" layout with rooms for 13 residents surrounding common living and dining areas gives the impression of being home rather than in one large commercial setting. It also allows the residents to be familiar with the caregivers in their area and for the caregivers to really get to know the residents for whom they are responsible. In addition, the outdoor courtyard actually surrounds the building rather than in the center of the building. This provides a substantial area for taking walks outdoors, sitting in the gazebo, etc. Both the professional and caregiver staff are truly compassionate people and highly experienced in memory care. Many of the staff have worked there for 10+ years and so there is little that they haven't seen and dealt with. I haven't met a person on staff yet that doesn't know my wife's name and most stop and give her a hug. The caregiver staff actually encourage me to stay and eat whenever I visit my wife around mealtimes. All of the soups and main courses are made from scratch and I haven't had a meal yet that I didn't enjoy. Activities run from 9:30am till at least 7:00pm. The enthusiasm and positive energy generated by the activities staff is special and definitely keeps my wife involved in stimulating atmosphere that has a positive impact on her attitude and cognition. Juniper Village isn't the least expensive solution for a loved one needing memory care, but I feel that the value received makes the investment worthwhile.

Lovely place and [named removed] was very helpful and pleasant! Sadly my father needed a higher level of nursing care than they have a Juniper.

We have been very happy with Juniper Village. All of the staff have made the transition for both my mother and I as comfortable as ever could be. She has been more active there then she has been in the last couple years. The physical and emotional care that she has received has been excellent. I especially like the way I have been informed about her progress and any needs and concerns that they have identified. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Loving staff.

My mother was a resident. I was very pleased with the staff and the care she received staff is very professional and friendly and very responsive. They genuinely care about the residents. My mom went from independent living, to assisted, then to the dementia unit and finally hospice. I felt all levels of care met her needs. I was very happy she was there and felt she was in capable hands. It was nice to have confidence that she was safe and cared for. I would highly recommend this facility.

We are settling in what I like here is the friendliness of the residents and staff. We have 3 good meals a day. We have a 2bdrm apartment and they will come 1x weekly to clean and do our linens, we do our personal laundry. We have a nice courtyard and patio area. The housekeeping keeps everything nice and clean. They will give us a weekly calendar of daily activities. It also has a shuttle to go to the grocery stores or a appointment. I would recommend this community.

My loved one lives here. It’s a wonderful place, we really love it. The staff is real nice, the residents are friendly, and I love the dining room. It’s so classy and it’s really what you want. The food is excellent and there are plenty of options to choose from. Everything is very clean and housekeeping comes by her room once a week to clean everything. There are also a lot of activities for the residents to participate in, like bingo and movie nights, and different holiday events. I would recommend this place for others and even for myself.

Tuesday 9:30am grocery bus to Weis is great! Connections staff has lots of good activities (exercise, 4pm happy hour on bridge, watercolor painting, bingo etc.). Housekeepers keep rooms clean daily! Kitchen staff has good meals and choice of salads and sandwiches and soups. Mail gets sorted. M – Sat. (Not on holidays!) Nurses are very helpful with meds, diabetics’ blood sugar and all questions!

Juniper Village is the best community that I have toured. The top qualities impressed me. The competencies of the leadership team. The caring environment. Beautiful environment very clean and healthy living environment. This is a top 5 star rating for seniors.

During our time to first tour the facility, we had the unfortunate timing because the alarm was going off because of some electrical issues. We liked the fact that it was a one level facility but the main turn off was the price. Had it not been for that, we may have considered moving forward and having my loved one here. The facility itself seemed pretty contained, however my loved one tends to wander and she may have found herself outdoors without anyone being aware of that. So we went ahead and gone somewhere that was a bit more secured. Overall the community itself was still very nice.

Lovely facility, take charge contact. Good accommodations and swift attention to care and process needed.

Great place. Very receptive to needs she is clean and happy here. Never a problem with communicating with help. Food is very good and they have excellent holiday fun. Lots of activities.

My mother is very happy here at Juniper Village in Chatham. We have a peace of mind afforded the family given the care she is getting that is in surmountable. The very best!!!

The facility is well kept and clean, the atmosphere is friendly, cheery and positive. The staff takes extraordinary efforts to accommodate the residents and there are many fun and innovative activities going on. The residents we talked with are very pleased with the facility, the décor and amenities, and feel comfortable in their new community and truly feel at home.

Juniper Village has so many kind staff that work here. Staff are always friendly and extremely helpful. It is always clean and they truly care about their residents.

We are so happy we face Juniper Village! My mom loves this place and the staff is so incredibly nice and accommodating. Special thanks to Amy who is the best - what a great person she is. Thank you!

Great community to be a part of. Staff is friendly and courteous. Would happily refer to another.

I had a warm feeling from everyone from the front desk to the marketing department to the dining room. Everyone was so friendly. It felt like family. I loved Juniper in Chatham.
