Assisted Living Communities in Portage, IN

"I visited Majestic Care of Saint Anthony. They were very nice. They took us and showed us everything. The only thing was that we didn't know if my brother would be in assisted care or memory care, but the staff said they would evaluate him. She showed us the assisted living and gave us a lot of information on memory living, but mostly we saw assisted living. Even if he went into assisted living and needed to go to memory care, they would handle that internally. She showed us the dining room and both sections of the room because they have a one-bedroom and a studio. The studio was kind of small, and my brother is used to a one-bedroom, but we liked both of the rooms. They were very caring and understanding. I just felt really comfortable, like they were being honest by telling us it might be memory or it might be assisted. The rooms were beautiful. The people in the common areas were friendly. We nodded, hi, how are you doing, and they spoke back. They were very clean, and even the eating area was clean. They had couches in there. We went into the recreation room, and they had TVs in there. You could go in there and watch some TV and talk to somebody. She showed us the reading areas and laundry room. We saw just about everything that they had to offer."

"As our mother, Sarajane, aged, she needed different stages of help. Initially, she moved from her home in which we were all raised to an apartment for seniors near me, to living with my sister during Covid, to living at Two Hearts near my brother, which opened providentially at the precise time when an assisted living facility was needed for her care. We felt like we had personal family care with each new challenge. As mother aged from her 90s to 100, Two Hearts provided social, physical, and personal care beyond what we were capable of providing for her. We felt like we had an extended family through the owners and caretakers at Two Hearts. The three of us are thankful to God for his timing for mother’s care at each stage of life and for the loving care of Two Hearts Assisted Living."

"It is pretty great. They're very clean and the staff has been very communicative with us like they would say, "Hey, we noticed your grandma is running low on this. On your next visit, make sure that you bring this for her." Today, we received a call that she was just having a hard time and wanted to know when my grandfather (who has already passed away) would visit her. They were able to get information to bring to her right at that time to be able to help her while she was having a memory issue. My mother tried the food and she said it was all pretty good. It seemed very well balanced and nothing that she would feel like she wouldn't want her mom to be eating. There's a nice wide variety of activities for her to do. They do field trips. I know they go to a pumpkin patch. They do little craft projects and stuff like that, and she seems to want to participate in that stuff. I'm all for anything that gets her up out of her room and be with people."

"We recently moved our mom into Two Hearts Homes for Seniors, and the experience has been nothing short of amazing. The environment truly feels like a home—not a facility. The private rooms, warm décor, and open family-style layout make such a difference. We’re especially thankful for the attentive staff and their personalized approach. Mom feels cared for, seen, and safe."

"I was a resident of Victory Centre of South Chicago for 10 years. The staff were all nice. All the managers from the other building were nice to us. They had a lunch thing downstairs, you can go in and buy your food if you want. They could serve a meal, but we cooked our own food, too. If we didn't feel like cooking, then we could go downstairs and eat in the cafeteria. The facility was nice and clean. They cleaned up every day. They kept everything cleaned up for us. The janitors were nice. They helped us with everything we asked for. Anything we need to be moved out, they moved for us. They did everything for us. We played bingo and solitaire. We played everything up in that building. I loved it. That's why I said if I have to, I will go back. That's why I had to keep my name on the list and she said she'll keep me in touch when a vacancy becomes available. I told her my daughter was going to have surgery, and then I would go back to that building. That building was so nice. Everybody was friendly with no problem. I enjoyed that building."

"Mom is at Brentwood at LaPorte. I like that it has several steps of care and that it's indoors. You get your apartment, but still it has levels, and the prices vary. So, you can have a level that's a lower price range and still have some extra care. They have a chef. They have three meals a day. It's easy to transition to more extensive care there. The staff is really good. Their food is healthy, but it's still enjoyable to eat. They have snacks, too, so you get to eat plenty. It is very clean and the building is really nice."

"I toured the Victory Centre of Roseland. The staff was very engaging and very informative. He let me know what would take place while my dad stayed there, the activities, the meals, and the things that he would get. They have daily activities. They do laundry. They do housekeeping. The dining area was clean. It's open and spacious, and the people don't have to sit on top of each other."

"My parents are in Settlers Place. The services and the environment at Settlers Place offered were excellent. The staff was very polite, good, friendly, and caring. The dining room has chandeliers in it and fancy place settings. The room is very convenient. "

"We chose Victory Centre of Sierra Ridge for Dad because they take Medicaid. Everything seemed fine. It's clean. Ashley was fantastic. They have arts and crafts and games. They have a whole room with various activities. The eating area was clean, and the people seemed to be enjoying the food. The room that they showed me was very nice. I think my dad will be very happy there. They have physical therapy and other things that I think will be beneficial to him."

"So many kind and caring people at Miller's! The food is excellent with so many options to choose from. Lots of activities to keep people as involved as they like. "

"Brookdale Portage Wyndmoor is a nice place. The staff was nice, the facility is nice, and they cook the meals for them. They also have people who assist with my mom's needs. With the restrictions and everything, I took my mom, got her settled, and that was it. But my mom says she likes it when I talk to her. They have activities and things like that -- it's just with this time of year and there's COVID.... Overall, the staffing, assistance, and the placement specialist there were very helpful. I haven't tasted the food, but right now she likes it. They have a salon, and they take them on trips."

"My mother has moved here. It's been very nice. She has been very happy there. The rooms are very nice and very comfortable. My mother is very happy with the staff members. She said they all know her by name for the short time she has been there. The dining is restaurant-style. There are people who individually wait on the tables. They have bingo, exercise classes, and field trips to the store. They have a library, too. My mother hasn't attended too many activities, but they offer everything."

"Our Mother lived at Brentwood of Hobart for the last fifteen months of her life. I can't say enough good things about the staff and the care she received. Upon entering, Brianna or Jason made you feel like you were at home. Sandra the Director was compassionate, professional, and she truly cared about the residents and their families. The Nurses and Aides were outstanding. There are too many to mention, but Dana, Natalie, and all of them went out of their way to treat our Mother well. Nobody likes to see an elderly family member not able to live at their home, but as far as an Assisted Living facility, I would recommend Brentwood of Hobart without reservation. Thanks to all of the wonderful staff members for treating our Mother so well."

"My aunt lives currently at Miller Beach and she really likes it. We have had meals with her in the dining room and the food is very tasty. The staff is super friendly and really seem to care about their residents. While there they were having a luau and the owner was manning the grill. They had large pretzels with cheese, cotton candy and even a balloon artist. The best part was the petting zoo. "
