Joy Assisted Living - About the Owners

For nearly fifteen years, Ken and Joy Edmonds have been innovators in the Assisted Living industry. Opening their first center in Clinton, Missouri, they soon saw the need for a premier facility in Springfield. At Joy Assisted Living, Ken and Joy have included their daughter Kathy McCrary and her husband Kelly McCrary in what is truly a family owned and operated business. With such involvement, every aspect of the business is overseen by a family member. Joy Assisted Living in Springfield brings together all of the things that Ken and Joy strive for in caring for seniors.

First and foremost has always been their compassion for people, especially people who may need a little help now and then with their daily activities. Joy Assisted Living specializes in providing just the right level of supportive care. Second, they want everyone who walks through the door to feel like they’re at home. The building was designed to look as home-like as possible, from the siding and trim, to the private dining room. Kathy and Kelly live next door and work very hard to achieve what we feel is the most comfortable atmosphere available today in Assisted Living. Third, they want to have a place that everyone can afford. Because there is no large, money-hungry corporation demanding profit, prices are kept at a more reasonable rate. They offer exceptional choices of Suites, Private and shared accommodations to fit any budget.

Please, don’t take our word for it. Stop by Kathy’s office and take a tour. If you’ve been in other facilities we think you will be surprised by how at-home everyone feels. In everything we do, we strive to make our residents feel like part of the family. Let us welcome you as well.
