reviewed on: 09/07/2017 by AnonymousThis looks like a really nice community. The people I met have been friendly. This community offers continuing care. We are hoping our loved one will be able to move into this community soon.
Impressive architecture but could use some improvements.
reviewed on: 03/03/2017 by AnonymousNo one greeted us when we moved in.They weren't even expecting us to move in.She's supposed to wear a watch but they don't check if She loves the food there. They emphasis they have a lot of activities but It's a very large place and it is difficult for resident sin certain sections to walk to activities in other sections.I asked Pam, the activities director to encourage my mother to get more involved and she has. When you walk in it is very Posh.The central lobby has a impressive double staircase. They have antique furniture everywhere. The assisted living is separated from the nicer part of the community. We didn't realize this while we were doing the tour. You kinda of do the tour and don't know where you're going.
A Wonderful Place that Gives & Understands
reviewed on: 07/08/2016 by Glenn HearnEach member of my family would like to thank you for your support of our mom as we deal with her desease and help her cope. It is very difficult to control her actions and speech, but you at Kirby Pines have provided an environment for her to enjoy and meet friends as well as provide activities that helps keep her active which is what she wants. Again we thank you and support what you do.
Very nice place
reviewed on: 07/21/2015 by AnonymousWe used this facility briefly for respite care for a loved one. Kirby Pines is a very nice, upscale community, and my loved one really enjoyed it. However, it was just too expensive to be a permanent option.

reviewed on: 07/08/2018 by AnonymousComment: If you have to go to Job's Way at Kirby Pines, the staff is great. They truly show compassion in giving daily care to residents with very sad memory issues. However, the air conditioning is awful! Does not adequately cool the facility and they will not fix it! The problem has been on going for over 9 years! Our family member has been there two and a half years and when we complain about the air conditioning, they make it better for a day and then it gets HOT again! They will not answer my questions and meetings have been promised yet they never happen. They give a lot of good lip service. They brought in some room air conditioners ( which are horrible and a hazard) this year on June 11 and I was told it was a temporary fix. A month later, nothing else has been done. It is still very hot in the area where the residents eat, have programs or watch movies. The management at Kirby Pines seems to be more concerned with looking good from the outside than they are with taking care of all of their residents. The rest of Kirby Pines and all offices are cool. Seems like they know the residents at Job's Way no longer have the abilities to complain so they seem to ignore their basic needs like comfortable temperatures all throughout Job's Way. Very very disappointed in the leadership at Kirby Pines for allowing the residents at Job's Way to suffer in this heat with very inadequate air conditioning. We pay almost 60,000 per year, yet we can not get good air conditioning. Seems to be more important to spend money on bushes, sod, irrigation and fancy light poles than it does to properly take care of the Job's Way residents.
