Visited an aunt here. Everyone was very, very friendly. The facility was clean. Bingo game was in progress in a meeting room upon arrival; was well attended by residents. Residents were spoken to kindly as I could hear conversarions from the open doors nearby. Security measures were in place for sign in and entering the "memory" section. My aunt was checked on several times during our visit. I appreciated their concern very much. I am glad she is being cared there!

If you are looking for the right place, read the following: Being a long-range planner, I started visiting nursing homes over two years ago. We have two or three very good ones in Montgomery, but John Knox was a clear winner. Early this year when it came time for my wonderful wife Ann, who is 16 years into Alzheimer’s to move to a nursing home, it was no contest. THIS IS IMPORTANT: My trust has been verified. I have dropped in at various times of the day and night. Impressive, the way she is cared for and how they unfailingly take her to all the activities—and they have many. I spend about three hours every day with her and I do NOT worry about her when I am away. AND GET THIS: they want my input about her care. From the senior administrator, other key officials, nurses, caregivers, and janitorial and repair staff—they are great folks.

That my mother is a healthcare provider I do know that many times there's just too much to do for the staff. I pray that one day we will learn to take care of our elderly the way this place has learned to care for their people
