What Artis families are saying
Recently moved in a family member. Staff is very attentive, caring , and communicative. A positive experience and would highly recommend Artis.
Every time I have walked through the doors to this terrific place, I feel such peace and a true sense of gratefulness that our family member is being cared for at Artis. The staff is fabulous and very attentive to all the members. Nicole Kanelos is an outstanding person who loves her job and the patience’s.
Very caring and compassionate nurses, especially Paul, Kim, Debbie, and Madison.
Today I make 4 years at Artis as an employee(care partner) .Its my love for our residents that keeps me going everyday. Artis has been like family to me and I enjoy everyday working here. I would like to thank my fellow employees and management team for making my experience at Artis so amazing!
A special shout out to Nicole Kanelos, Director of the Artis Way Experience. Today, I got to see her welcoming a new neighbor into the community. She was empathetic, warm and positive. She knew personal details about the resident. And within moments of being greeted by Nicole, you could see the resident was at ease. And she was equally as empathetic and supportive to the family. Nicole is a blessing to Artis of Lexington.
I am so happy to be part of the Artis family! We have a wonderful group of caregivers and managers that really make everyday special. Madison our Director of Wellness has done an amazing job making sure our residents are taken care of and communicating with our families.
Artis Senior Living of Lexington is an amazing place to work. Nicole our Director of the Artis Way is such a positive and encouraging person to work with. Jonathon our Executive Director is the definition of a caring and dedicated leader. We are lucky to have some of the most amazing care partners who take such great care of all our residents. I am so fortunate to be a part of the Artis community.
