I dont feel management takes my concerns seriously. I have lived here a few months now and havent had any of my issues addressed. I have spoken with several individuals as well as the head department women and nothing has been done.

Poor leadership
Some of the care staff are good but if you have any issues arise good luck getting them addressed. The director is never there. The nurse never answers. I call or stop by and she’s not there or already left. And she never cares to return my calls either. Most of the managers don’t care enough to try to help or don’t have the authority.

My parents love staying at John Wesley Villas. They say the staff is very courteous and is always willing to help them. They love the grounds and the safety of the property, especially the 24 hour care and the night managers, also having so many activities on property keep the busy all day. It's a wonderful place for them.

My dad loves it here!
My father has lived at John-Wesley Villas for a few years now. Started in the apartments and then moved to assisted living when his health declined. I can’t say enough about this community. The apartments and assisted living is the best in town. They treat my father so well. The apartments had great amenities as far as meals and house keeping. Now in assisted living they take all the stress and worry from him. He gets to just enjoy himself doing the activities and parties and hanging out with his friends. They do all the meal prep/chores/house keeping, plus keep him safe. The staff loves him like their own parents! I’m so blessed to have him there. They’re currently having big renovations to improve and update the property, it’s nice to know they are putting money back into the property for the residents! Food is always good, dad had lost weight when his health declined but gained it all back in assisted living- which is a good thing!

Wonderful retirement and assisted living community
This place is the best of the best and has been in this industry the longest. Their retirement living section is wonderful and has great amenities. Beautiful landscaping and updated apartments. They have a clubhouse where meals and activities take place. The assisted living layout is the best I’ve seen. Very open concept and easy for residents to get to meals and activities. Staff seems very friendly and love their residents. All ground level community and each apartment for independent and assisted living has access to patio outside. They always seem to have activities going on here so my loved one is never bored. My loved one started in independent and transferred to assisted and could not be more happy. They take wonderful care of her.

Great place to live
I chose this community because this has everything that I needed. The food is great, they have variety and it is all fresh. They give you a weekly menu and you fill it out, you get two options for each day to choose from. It is a dining style set up. Since COVID, they have been bringing food to my apartment, but they are opening the dining room back up soon. I have seen the room sizes for assisted living and they are adequate. I live in an apartment and it is very spacious. I would absolutely recommend this community.

I moved here from another community and I like it a lot more here. It is also considerably less expensive. The food is terrific and they are bringing us food to each resident's apartment. They check on us every day. The community itself looks brand new. I can't think of anything negative to say. The price is extremely reasonable for an apartment that is considerable in size. A fantastic place. Some of the staff have been with the community as much as 15 years.

We are so glad to hear you enjoying living here! We strive to be the best we can be, even with the challenges COVID brought in 2020.

A Place for Mom has scored John-Wesley Villas 9.2 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.
We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.
Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
