We were so relieved to have been directed to Juniper Village at Aurora after having many problems and concerns at the two memory care facilities we had my father at previously. The setup of the building feels like a home, not a hospital, and offers lots of rooms and places residents can move around to so they don't feel confined or like they are in a hospital. The staff were amazing - they sincerely care and take the time to create trusted bonds with residents, treating them like their own family. Other memory care communities had frequent staff turn-over and were not nearly as qualified for the behavior challenges memory care residents experience. Many of the staff at Aurora Juniper have been there for several decades - totally unheard of in this space. There are too many instances to recall when the staff went way above and beyond to accommodate us. The staff is friendly, kind, well trained, empathetic and communicate very well. Special thanks to to activity director Sam, Akela head nursing, Sable, Ethiopia, Juan, Toya, Alba, Tremaine, Melia and so many others. Namaste hospice layered care at the end and ensured there was no suffering. My Dad was truly happy during his last 8 months at Juniper Village Aurora. Very reasonable pricing as well. Highly recommended!

I rarely post a review on social media but I feel compelled to talk about my experience with Juniper Village Memory Care. It is an Amazing place!! I was very desparate to find a decent place for my mom on short notice and Jackie Quinn took the time to tour the Center for me on Zoom. The staff and management at Juniper are Exceptional!!! They really took care of my mother, who initally had diffuculty adjusting to a new place. The staff treated my mother as if she was their mother. Donna, Daniel Bilques (the best) and all of the other support staff were exceptional caregivers in being patient, compassionate and understanding with my mother. My family also really appreciated the home-like environment of Juniper, always very clean and tidy. Finding Juniper was truly a blessing for our family!! Thank You!!!

Juniper Aurora is beautiful community with amazing care staff to care for their residents as if they were their own family. I've come to appreciate how compassionate, attentive and welcoming they all have been as I am a liaison for an outside agency. Your efforts speaks volumes!

I've been a hospice chaplain in Denver for 10 years and have been probably 100 different facilities. This one used to be my very favorite facility, and I had planned to put my mom there when she was in need of memory care. I told everyone that and encouraged many families over the years to place their loved one there. Their CPAPs and CNE's are awesome, loving and caring. However, they recently had an administrative change and there are clearly noticeable differences. The biggest is the ability to actually get a hold of anybody when you call. I have called several times in the past trying to reach somebody and only got a voicemail and no return call I have regularly been left standing in the vestibule, even in very very cold weather waiting for someone to come and open the door. Just a few months ago, I stood in the vestibule with Aurora police officer for 15 minutes. One of the residents had "escaped" And apparently much of the staff was out driving around looking for them. I certainly understand That things happen, but for families to pay almost $9000 a month I think they should at least expect to be able to get a hold of someone who is caring for their loved one and get into the facility when they need to. Additionally, several of the staff continue to be my friends and have reported This has become a much less friendly and supportive place to work. A few years ago this facility was awarded one of the best places to work, I'm quite sure they wouldn't receive that award now. If you put your love one there, I'm sure they will probably get sufficient care from, Qmaps and CNA's, but I don't think it's worth the price anymore. I think the place is still worth checking out for yourself and their marketer, Jackie is a lovely and genuinely friendly person However, I would definitely recommend anybody considering this facility to do some comparison shopping first. Full disclosure, I have been band from this facility for expressing unrelated frustrations.

Being a hospice provider, I have never seen such highly caring capable empathetic staff as I have at Juniper Village. The staff have all been employed here for a long time and love their jobs! This is a community I would place my parents without hesitation. Jackie and her staff are competent caring and loving all at the same time. I have cared for many hospice residents in memory care, and this is by far the best I have seen!

When it came time to move a loved one from her home into memory care, we contacted an independent licensed social worker ( LCSW, CMC) to help select a facility. She recommended four and we selected three to visit and interview. Juniper ranked high on her short list because they specialized in Memory Care. Now I understand why. Unlike so many places in the the healthcare community, they have very little turnover in the staff. Many of the staff members have been there for YEARS. They specialize in dementia care. They know how to deal with delusions and argumentative behavior. They have a four intimate "homes" (Mountain House, Lake House etc) organized around an enormous patio and other activity areas. Meals are cooked in a common kitchen, but each home serves meals in their intimate dining room. Each home has their own living room and private patio. Our loved one was a "particularly tough customer" when she was transferred from a local Psych Hospital via ambulance. Yet, the tenderness and kindness of the staff was amazing. Even at her most unloveable, they treated her with respect, dignity and caring. Unfortunately, during those first few weeks, our loved one was "a handful." She refused to bathe, she barricaded herself in her room, she refused to let her little dog outside to go potty. She thought her own family were imposters. Juniper's staff told us, "Don't worry. It is part of the disease." They found subtle ways to work their magic, I was there often. I saw them quietly deal with incredibly challenging of behavior ,yet I never saw any of the staff "lose their cool." Daniel was on duty the first night she arrived. With great patience, he showed us around the facility. He noticed at her nails were long and then trimmed them with such tenderness. The food is delicious and family members are welcome to join in at meal time. Our loved one is a vegetarian (who does not like vegetables) and Annette cooks her a special breakfast of Huevos Rancheros in the morning. All the staff are available any time to provide coaching on how to deal with a difficult situation. Alba, in particular, has provided all the family with great advice. Juniper is special. I am so happy we contacted a Licensed Social Worker for assistance. Without her, I doubt we would have found Juniper on our own. Moving a loved one into memory care from their home is difficult. The entire family is so happy to know she is safe in Juniper's care.

The staff at Juniper is amazing. My mother has lived at two other assisted living / memory care facilities and Juniper is the best. Caring staff and authentic people. The Sales Director, Jackie Quinn onboarded my mother and remains very active in her daily care. Medical concierge, Alba is wonderful and communicates with me regularly. Juniper is the perfect fit for my mother. And finally, the in-house caregivers are an amazing group of people that truly care about the residence. Jeff Bille

I am a Hospice Care Consultant for Brighton Hospice and had the opportunity to partner with Juniper Village at Aurora during a challenging last minute placement needed for a resident needing to find a “right fit” and Juniper Village at Aurora was the one. Jennifer Roy quickly jumped on it and made sure all the pieces needing to be done to assess and begin the move in process for the resident were done in record time . Her communication with Brighton Hospice was phenomenal and was followed by a truly welcoming environment, staff and administrator. Everyone quickly worked together to help the resident adjust to his new home and collaborated with the hospice team to ensure his comfort. We are thankful for the positive experience we were able to have with everyone.

I have had the opportunity to observe the staff at Juniper Village at Aurora from a professional perspective. I have attended several networking meetings at their location and the residents are never prohibited from wandering in and out of the room we are in - this is their home. The staff provides gentle redirection if needed, offers residents a drink or snack if desired, and treats each resident with the dignity and respect they deserve. The community is well maintained, the food is excellent, and I would certainly recommend families explore this location as a home for their loved ones.

I have had a lot of families move their loved ones into your community over the years. They have all been really happy with the staff and environment. I really like how the building is designed with homes in the corners and a "town square" in the middle. You also have a great outside area. One of the best for memory care in the Denver area. I am writing today because I wanted to give you all a Big THANK YOU for going the extra mile for my client that moved in several weeks ago. She was really challenging and you all worked through it with the family and told them this is her forever home. That meant so much to me! Your hearts are in the right place. Thank you!!

Juniper has been a blessing to us. The staff are amazing and so incredibly patient, caring and treat the residents like family. They take the time to get to know them. The layout of the facility and the large outside courtyard to be out in nature more is a wonderful feature. The staff longevity is unheard of during these times. The facility always has activities, holiday fun, decorations, music and feels like home environment.

Applying to work for Juniper Village Aurora was the best decision I have ever made during my career. The care, and compassion for the residents and their families exceeds far above any other place that I have ever worked. It starts with our leadership team Tom, Sonny, Jennifer, Cathy, Chris, Michelle, Patrick and Alba! They ALL lead by example and are always ready to lend a helping hand! Everyone works together no matter what department needs help. That is simply amazing to me and makes for a great place to work knowing that you can depend on each other to provide the best care for our residents and their family members. Proud member of the Juniper Village Aurora team.

Juniper Village is more than just a memory care facility. This place is full of love and support not just for residents, but family members and staff as well. This close-knit community takes pride at keeping the mind, body, and spirit active through all stages of life. Everyday is a new day at Juniper and it is an amazing opportunity to work at a place that has compassion for people. <3

My wife has lived in the Juniper Village at Aurora community for nearly two years and I can easily say that she is at home there. The level of care, support, and love that she receives from each and every member of the staff is incredible. In addition, the food and activities (weekly barbeques in the summer, live entertainment and even a luau) are excellent. And from my own search for the right community for my wife, I know that Juniper Villages facility, especially its outdoor area for resident events and general exercise, is unique and provides something special.

My 90 year old mother has been at Juniper for a little over a year. During that time we have come to consider the other residents and staff as family. We are extremely fortunate that our mother, although battling dementia, is capable of appreciating many of the opportunities that make Juniper unique, like main floor living, good food, friendly and overall capable staff, and generous walking and outdoor sitting areas. From her chair in her room, (which during covid 19 she is spending the majority of her time in, ) she can listen to music while looking out through a large window into an open grassy area. Covid 19 has revealed many of the shortcomings of our society, especially in the health care industry, but under Tom Hunters leadership Juniper has proven that it is true to its mission and uncompromising in its effort to keep residents and staff safe.

My name is Bradley and Ive been working here since 2015. Juniper Village at Aurora is a great place to work! As an associate, all of the staff truly work incredibly well together and our community is a place where friends become family. Working here I receive the training, and the tools to really understand Memory Care. I enjoy seeing the residents in a safe home-like environment. There happiness, laughter, and smiles fill our community on a daily basis. I couldnt imagine being a part of a more well rounded community.

Theres a lot of choice out there. You have to take some advice and figure out what to do with it. This place is completely at face value meaning they dont over-promise typically they over deliver and set good expectations right up front. Staff and management are accessible, the wellness program is great as not all places have nursing in addition to caregivers. You can tell theres a lot of heart and love here.

Juniper Village at Aurora is such a wonderfully caring and supportive memory care community. Each staff member is specifically trained in dementia care techniques such as providing care, communicating and understanding of the disease process. Im so proud to be part of the Juniper Village team since 2011. As a 20+ year veteran of the senior care industry I have always felt confident recommending a Juniper community, even before I joined the team.

My father is here after a brain injury way too young and the service and care they provide is outstanding! For a person with not too much for a quality of living they sure make life worth it a little more with these injuries with all the events they have and activities. The staff have really become a second family to us. Id recommend it to anyone that has a memory issue or injury.

I have worked at Juniper Village for almost a year now. After being in this industry for quite some time, words cannot express the comfort that this village gives its family members. There are caregivers who have worked there since the day the community opened over 16 years ago. That is unheard of in this industry and speaks volumes of the owners unique vision. I couldnt be more proud to be a member of this team.
