I can't begin to say enough about the Citadel facility and their staff. My dad passed away on…read moreJanuary 26, 2016 and spent the last 2 months of his life there. The accomodations were just amazing. My parents stayed in one of the efficiency apartments and it was so nice that they felt like they were at home. Because of my fathers dementia he couldn't really go to the cafeteria so my mother was able to order meals and have them delivered and the food was wonderful. Paula, my parents favorite CNA, and the rest of the medical team was so patient with my father and, I feel, truly loved him. Even the janitorial staff was wonderful. I can't thank the CItadel staff enough for making my dads tranistion much easier and being so warm and kind to my parents. I just can't imagine a better place to recommend. XOXO

BEDBUGS! The whole facility! 7 years straight! They cant get rid of them after trying almost…read moreeverything. Notice the new carpet inside. That was the last attempt to get rid of the bugs. My dad and his room mate were crawling with them. In their hair laying eggs, in the bedding, clothes, covered! Your loved one will be bagged up and carelessly thrown into another room for 7 days while they kill the bugs in their own room. Over and over. Rude staff that leaves people hollering in their rooms for hours...they dont answer the emergency buttons and friends of my dad died alone calling for help that never came. Poor food quality, rental hikes sometimes double without any advance notice, meds not given to most of them on time, countless excuses, zero entertainment and the place is filthy and stinks of urine everywhere. Horrible! Even if you hate your parents, this place is too much!! Last year the laundry room caught fire and the entire place had to be evacuated into the street since noone ever cleaned the lint traps. fun fun. Myself and the nurses that came in to work with my dad said over and over this place needs to be shut down. The front desk ladies are trained to have great big smiles.....its all a load of crap. Don't fall for this place. All the residents can only complain with nothing ever getting better. Pure hell hole! Sickens me!

For three years I cared for my mother as she battled dementia, it was one of the hardest experiences of my life, I struggled to understand her mood swings her refusal to eat, shower, or take medication. I eventually had to accept that I didn't have the skills or knowledge to provide the care she needed, after moving her four times since 2022 I was feeling hopeless until one day in March 2023 I overheard a woman at the grocery store raving about a place of joy she described it as heaven on Earth a place where her father was cared for with love and dedication her words stuck with me and I decided to visit from the moment I walked in I felt something different the owner Chela is incredibly attentive to detail and it's clear that she runs this home with both expertise and a huge heart every time I visit often unannounced I see caregivers who are genuinely happy always smiling and treating the residents with kindness and patience. Most importantly I always see the residents happy. the name says it all this truly is a place of joy, if you're looking for a group home where your loved one will be treated with dignity compassion and expert care this is it. I am beyond grateful to have found this place and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking the best care for their elderly family members

To the Caregivers at A Place of Joy Assisted Living,…read more I want to take this opportunity to say what a wonderful experience my Aunt Darlene has had during the almost three years she has been with A Place of Joy Assisted Living. She is well fed, the facility is always clean, the meals are wonderful, and she is as happy as one can be under her circumstances. Her husband, my uncle, visits regularly, and always knows he will find his wife up and dressed, having a meal, or just finishing one, with clean linens on the bed, a comfortable chair where she feels safe, and people around who care for her and make her feel safe. I am grateful for the peace of mind my uncle has knowing the staff care greatly about and for my aunt which allows him some sense of comfort since they cannot be together in their home. Thank you all for not only caring for my aunt, but for the tenderness with which you care for my uncle as well. He is a wonderful man, and a wonderful husband to my aunt for over 65 years. That is a saint in my book! With gratitude and thanks, Their niece, Linda

Horrible. My dad wen there. He hated it instantly, and he died after two weeks in their care…read more Prior to that he was going to walmart and harbor freight, dollar general shopping and was just fine. Once he moved there he called me on the phone the first hour and begged me not to have him move there. Its for Memory care patients only. Don't be fooled. If your parent is still functioning, this place will kill them. they will lose all freedoms and will become prisoners. Even at my requests, they would not open the gates so he could resume his normal life. You wont be able to communicate with then one on one again....ever. They insist on emailing back and forth cause they are "So busy" with the12 people that live there. disgusting. My dad had a dual stroke and died from all the stress of them taking away his entire life and it took a week and a half and he was gone. Don't do this to your parents....even if you dont like them. It should be shut down!

There was a wet diaper in the hall, and a woman wandering in the hall with no pants on! I was visiting when the tech came in and asked me if I could take care of the mess that I had gone to get her to clean up. The patients have NO way to call for help other than hollering until someone happens to come in. When I asked about this, they told me "we check on them". I was there for 4 hours, and no one came in. The meals are HORRIBLE. I stayed to enjoy a meal with her, and no one at the table could eat the meal. None of us could even figure out what it was, broccoli with a brown gravy stuff on it.

Assisted Living of Mesa is not the typical group home! Before I visited this home, I was sure that…read morethe type of loving, professionally-run home I so needed for my mom did not exist! I toured more group homes than I can count; typically leaving in tears considering the type of 'existence' my mom would have there. As a school administrator with high standards, I expected equally high standards from other professions; my expectations were truly always shot down when I visited group homes in the Phoenix area. I began to think the 'best' was just very below-average and felt despair in considering leaving my dear mother in any of them. But... when I stepped inside the Assisted Living of Mesa, I immediately felt a difference- a huge difference. At the other homes I had visited, I always had the sense that the caregivers were putting on a happy face for visitors but somehow sensed that when the door closed, things were not so happy. I was negative about the whole group home concept and was distraught over how I could take care of my mother. The caregivers have a really hard job, I know, but I can't compromise my mom's safety and care. ​But... when walked into the Assisted Living of Mesa, I could not continue with that negative feeling. I immediately felt that the employees were committed to making the group home a HOME for everyone who visited or lived there! There was such a genuine feeling that permeated every aspect of the tour. I immediately sensed that my dear mom, who has dementia and cannot really advocate for herself, would be loved, cared for and about, and not left alone. I knew, on that initial tour, that I could go to work each day knowing that she was loved, helped, taken care of, supported, and considered part of a family. Now, Mom has been at the Assisted Living of Mesa for almost three years. They love her there, meet her needs for dementia care, and I have never worried or wondered about how she is treated. I have to work; I also have to care for my mom who cared for me for so long. This group home is not the typical group home!
