it is friendly, warm and caring - the staff is the best and so is the food. I was here for rehab and the physical Therapists were the best. The facility is clean and nicely decorated and the room has enough room to get around and plenty of storage for clothes in a closet or dresser

The entire staff and StJ is amazing. Kayla the social worker, Kelsey the business manager, the nursing staff… Vanessa and Marilyn, CNA’s… Mara and Jessie, Mike from maintenance, and especially the PT/OT team of Gianna and Colleen (just to name a few of the great staff they have on duty day and night). The around the clock care provided to the rehab and long term patients is outstanding. Thank you StJ ❤️

A True Hidden Gem of Compassionate Care: Truly Exceptional I have to share that I was absolutely blown away by the level of care, attention to detail, and warmth that this facility offers. From the moment you walk in, it was evident that this place is a hidden gem. The staff greeted me with genuine smiles and took the time to answer every question with patience and clarity, making me feel completely at ease. The facility itself is so inviting with a homely atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. Resident's room are spacious, and designed to feel like home, not just another care facility. The common areas are inviting and well maintained, and their chapel is absolutely amazing with the gorgeous stained glass windows. What truly sets St. Joe's apart, though, is the staff. Their dedication and compassion are palpable in every interaction. They know each resident by name and treat them with the utmost respect and kindness, creating a true sense of community and feeling of belonging and that you truly are home. It's clear that the staff here goes above and beyond to ensure that each resident not only receives excellent medical care but also feels valued and loved. The range of activities offered is also impressive, with something to suit every interest. Whether it’s arts and crafts, music therapy, or gentle exercise classes, there’s always something engaging and enriching happening. The staff encourages participation, fostering a vibrant and active lifestyle for all residents which includes rosary and mass daily. St. Joe's gives a sense of peace, you know that this is a place where loved ones can truly thrive. If you’re looking for a facility that offers not just care, but a nurturing environment filled with love and respect, I cannot recommend St. Joe's highly enough. It’s a place where residents are treated like family, and it’s a rare find in today’s world.

I’m so thankful for the care my mother receives at St Joseph Living center. Last June, my family had to make the difficult decision to move our mother to long term care. She had been in multiple short term rehab facilities in RI and we were apprehensive about what long term care would look like for her. As soon as I met Janice in admissions and took a tour of the facility, I knew St Joe’s was the place for my mom. The facility is clean and welcoming. You feel comfortable as soon as you walk in the front door. You are always greeted by the receptionist. The nursing staff on St Ann’s is amazing, they really care about their residents and go above and beyond to be sure they are happy and comfortable. The recreation department is top notch. There are daily activities that the residents enjoy and they work hard to encourage and include all residents in every activity! The peace of mind knowing that your mother is happy and loved where she lives is unmeasurable. We have gained that peace of mind at St Joseph living center and we are forever grateful.

St Joseph Living Center is an absolute breathe of fresh air in the skilled nursing facility community! Not only the staff, but the community are all so invested in the facility and the lives of the residents. These residents have a facility van to go on outings, amazing rehab services that help with everything you could think of for these residents to live their happiest lives, and even facility birds, a dog, and a cat! SJLC does not feel like a facility, it feels so much more like a home for those that live there than any other building around.
