Not Your Average Senior Living Community

We wanted to learn all about The Canyons Retirement Community and its impressive online reputation, so we took a few minutes to talk with Executive Administrator Jordan Hartman.

The first question we had for Jordan was what is it that sets The Canyons Retirement Community apart from their competition in Idaho. Here’s Jordan’s response:

“We really do care. A lot of times, myself and the staff are here for a reason outside of just earning a paycheck — we make sure we are here to serve others. The residents are the ones who are providing our paychecks, and we want to take care of them with kindness and care. We run this building as if it was our own parents or family members who were our residents. We also strive to bring in great food and activities. We have a culinary chef who brings in a variety of options for food, and we try to provide a multitude of activities that residents can participate in.”

We also wanted to know what their mission is at The Canyons Retirement Community and how they work to make the world a better place. Here’s what Jordan had to say:

“Our mission and vision is to find joy in the journey. There is a lasting joy that comes from providing a critical service to those facing difficulties and challenges with their health and in their lives. Additionally, we find great joy in providing quality jobs to our employees, and take great pride in striving to provide an excellent work environment. These are the things that provide lasting joy. …Our employees strive to have positive attitudes towards their duties and the facility. They will meet their personal expectations within their changing environment while maintaining our innovative differences in the industry through the utilization of new techniques and philosophies. Our objective is to confirm our commitment to the company through the use of our customer service philosophies, employee morale building, personal goals and projected timelines. These tools will be utilized in a manner that is both measurable and effective.”

Building Success by Caring About Their Residents and Staff

Jordan attributes The Canyons Retirement Community’s strong online reputation to the fact that they truly care about their residents and staff, to their great food and beautiful building, and to their culture and environment. He added:

“Whenever we hire individuals, we let them know that we believe in taking care of every staff member and every resident.”

Outside of building a powerful online reputation, The Canyons Retirement Community has gotten their name out there by constantly sharing and connecting with their community through social media, and by throwing events, including block parties, car shows, ice cream parties and so much more! Jordan also pointed to Jess Tolle, who he says does a great job of handling the marketing for The Canyons, as well as their sister company, Serenity Transitional Care. He went on to say:

“We love putting on events for the community, our staff members/residents and their families. We try to do social events weekly, and we like to give off the family vibe. We make sure everyone feels valued and appreciated, and like they’re a part of our family.”

There are so many business owners out there looking to build the kind of online reputation The Canyons Retirement Community has. Here’s Jordan’s expert advice for them:

“It’s all about having the right people with you — having the trust that those with you are going to do their job. You also have to enjoy what you do. If you enjoy what you do, it makes you work harder. Having the right people in place brings success and makes our lives easier. Our staff is excellent at what they do and makes our community a delight to be a part of.”


Congratulations to the team at The Canyons Retirement Community for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Jordan, for taking the time to speak with us!
