Valley of Joy operates as a residential care home and is equipped to manage a wide range of medical needs. The team is experienced with residents who wander during the day or night, those at risk of elopement, and individuals who present combative or other behavioral challenges, including advanced dementia. Clinical oversight extends to wound care, oxygen management, special diets, and diabetes support whether residents are on oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale regimens. The community also accepts adults under 60 who need this level of care and can coordinate psychiatric services on site for residents requiring mental-health support.

Around-the-clock safety and nursing coverage form the backbone of daily operations. A registered nurse or LPN is on staff, a nurse is on call 24 hours, and awake night staff monitor doors that are alarmed and rear grounds that are fenced. Personal emergency response systems alert caregivers immediately if assistance is needed. The team can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and is trained for every transfer level from standby to two-person or Hoyer lift, including residents who are bed-bound. Thorough background checks are conducted on all employees to help ensure a secure environment.

Private and semi-private rooms are available, and many include features such as an en-suite bathroom, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate. Basic furnishings are provided, housekeeping is scheduled regularly, and laundry services are handled by staff. Because floor plans and room types vary, not every accommodation contains each listed feature, so families are encouraged to review specific room layouts during a tour.

Meals are prepared on site and served on a set menu, though residents can request items to order. The kitchen supports doctor-ordered diets including gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chopped, puréed, and thickened-liquid plans. Snacks are available throughout the day, and in-room dining can be arranged when a resident’s condition requires it. Staff oversee diet modifications and make sure that diabetic and other specialized nutritional guidelines are followed precisely.

Additional conveniences include resident parking, outside smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, and reliable internet access. Residents can enjoy communal gardens, attend on-site religious services, and schedule transportation for medical appointments or outings arranged by the staff.
