my husband and I decided that we should get into a retirement community we heard about El joya so we rushed down to put our name on the list when I was cooking for myself at home I don't think my children would ask very often to come and see me and have dinner since I've moved in here I can't tell you how many times I get this phone call hey we thought we'd come over and have dinner with you tonight we just love to see you the food is wonderful this is one reason we've been bringing friends here the staff are just wonderful there they treat us like we're their own grandparents and they know us all by our first names and they just go the extra mile to care for us I don't think it could happen find a better staff myself any place I know how they could improve the nicest things about Al joya is when people move in to our community they get to age in place their apartment becomes their home for the rest of their lives they don't have to leave that apartment to go on to assisted living or to a nursing setting I particularly like the wellness Souter because it offers so many services if you need them you are treating your apartment just like you would have your own home if you had not moved here so you can hire extra help if you need it but you aren't put out of this place when you get sick we have a singing group called joyous singers and we just started out with full of people gathering around the piano and then it kind of grew it's really fun if you move in when you're feeling good and get comfortable with new home new friends and old friends that you need again after 40 or 50 years that socialization keeps us healthier you just meet a lot of people from such varied backgrounds they are how much more than neighbor sometimes almost like family I feel it's a very friendly place and an easy place to make friends it's probable that one of us will end up alone in the apartment at the community but but it's better in life and then being at home while you're really alone that that's that's a big plus I think if you were looking for a retirement community the thing that attracted me here was that I can walk places easily so this is very accessible and in fact bust bellevue in seattle is right across the street there's just so many things offered here that I feel my life is so much simpler I just feel so pampered and I have so much more free time time to plan parties and fun things I feel like it it's it's been what I needed at the time I needed you
