Assisted Living Communities in Warsaw, IN

"My mother-in-law is in Miller's Senior Living Community. It has a cafeteria-style billing where it has a lower rate to begin with, and then the more assistance you need, the more you pay. They have free transportation on particular days of the week to and from doctor's visits. They have outings that they do to local shopping. They have activities and church services. They need to have increased staffing and a less expensive fee for assisted services."

"Upon driving into Timbercrest, one can't help be struck by the beauty and simplicity of the facility. Regardless of the season, the grounds are well-manicured and very well-taken care of. In the winter, there is never any ice or snow obstructing the walks; in the spring and summer, there are always flowers and planters placed everywhere. Although I have never had any prolonged contact with the staff, the facility always seems very-well staffed, and the receptionists on duty are always very friendly and eager to help. In fact, every employee that I pass by on trips in and out of the various corridors are always quick to say hello and ask me if there is anything I need.I think what impresses me most about Timbercrest is the facilities and amenities offered for residents. There is a large kitchen area that is available for residents to use for family reunions or other gatherings. In this area, there are also dart boards and pool tables. The exercise room is large and fully stocked with machines of all kinds, and there is a craft room, a hardware, and a variety of other specialized areas to entertain hobbies of all kinds.The grounds of Timbercrest -- those beyond the front door -- are beautiful. There are gardens and walking paths that are easily accessible for anyone in a wheelchair or motorized scooter, and this is where I have spent some of the best time with my aunt. "

"I have had problems with Parkview in the past. Generally I think they stack their bills, hire too few doctors, and don't really care about their patients. The office staff and doctors have never been anything short of rude almost EVERY time I go in to one of their facilities. However, when my dad went to The Oaks for hospice from a terminal case of pancreatic cancer, they were nothing short of SPECTACULAR. We never had a single problem with any one who had worked there and they all really got to know my dad. It was not easy watching my dad starve to death, but they were not only there to take care of him, they took care of us too. Knew us by name, called when it seemed like it was his time. They consistantly offered an open ear and reasonable solutions. Now that he's passed and we've had a little bit of time to think about it, I would highly reccommend the Oaks to someone else. The only good thing I would say about Parkview. "

"We toured Peabody Community. The staff was very friendly, very helpful and very welcoming. They had a little welcome sign for me and my family. It was so good that they were thinking of us and took the time to make an effort for us. The facility was very nice, big, and offered a lot of things. Besides assisted living, they had rehab or memory care or the nursing home all in the same complex. If my mother-in-law had to go into memory care and her husband could stay in the assisted living, they would be right there together, which would be very nice. "

"My father has moved into Heritage House Senior Living. It's very nice. The outside faces a golf course, and it has a beautiful pond with geese and a screened-in area to overlook it. The inside is beautiful. I only got to go in to tour it. They have outside visitation during COVID. They have studio apartments, and he got the bigger one. They do activities down at a lower level of the place, and they have an ice cream bar. There are things in the hallways set up like puzzles, and they have places to sit in the hallways. They allow pets. The staff is very nice, and meals seem to be good. The food looked good the one time I saw it, and they have a choice if they don't want what they're serving. There's an alternative menu they can choose from, and he liked that. The rooms are very nice. They are well priced and one of the lower ones I saw. I was really impressed with it."

"Waterford Crossing is a very well-rounded assisted living center. I really like the way in which it helps keep friends and family connected to its residents. I especially enjoy the Happy Hour they have every Friday (friends and family as well as residents can attend)! Most of the staff is friendly and helpful, though we have had a few "gruff" interactions over the years - but not many. There are a lot of different activities for residents, from social activities like playing cards, to exercise groups, to worship services, and more. The residents also seem to enjoy the nearby elementary school, which often has the kids come in and do performances for the residents. The rooms are big and spacious, though it depends upon the number of rooms you choose. The building itself is relatively new and well lit, and some of the rooms have a great view of the pond out back. They also have a "driver" who can take residents to appointments, church, or other places in town. About the biggest problem we've ever had with Waterford Crossing is with the carpeting. It was too thick and it caused my friend to tire more quickly when walking around in the hallways. She even tripped and fell once because of it. Overall it's a great place for the money. "

"I toured Waterford Crossing. The difference with them is that you buy a duplex, and when you leave, you sell it. Whereas the others, you kind of buy in, but you don't get your money back if you have to move, so that's a big difference. It was more out in the country. Everything seemed nice, friendly, and clean. The staff who toured me around was very nice. It was more like a little village with little houses and stuff that you bought into. It's like a little community and everybody has yards and stuff."

"My parents moved into Greencroft Goshen. They have multiple levels of care. Since my parents are in independent living, they get their first choice if they have to move up to either assisted living or nursing care, so that was one of the main reasons we chose it. The area is very close to doctors and grocery stores. It is a very good area, and it is easy to get around. I've heard a lot of great reviews. The staff has been wonderful. My parents seem to like the food. They have a lot of activities."

"We decided to have mom at Miller's Merry Manor in Wakarusa, because they had an opening, and compared to other places in the area, their price is a little bit more reasonable. The staff is very nice and very helpful. Her room is very nice and clean. It's a studio. The food is very good. They have bingo and an exercise class in the morning."

"Overall everything seemed to be very well taken care of at all times. Everyone seemed to be genuinely happy with their work and they were always more than happy to help with whatever questions or tasks that needed to be done. The food and entertainment was also a plus and all of the residents seemed to be in high spirits. Honestly, it turned a bad situation and make it tolerable for everyone.Obviously, my mother in law was very happy to finally get out of there after her physical therapy was complete. Though, it never would have been possible without all of the help and dedication from the friendly doctors and the extra helpful staff of the facility. It was a pleasure and I hope and pray that all facilities show the same love and respect to all of their residents. So, I guess in conclusion, everything was amazing. The care exceeded all of my expectations and took away some of the fear and stereotypes that I had heard about assisted care facilities and retirement homes. Good work! "

"Mom has moved to Cottage Garden. The people are really good and caring. They only have six residents. There are two caregivers there all the time, so the ratio of caregivers to residents is high. It's like a home setting. It's a big house, so it's not like a lot of the care places where you walk out of your room and you're in a hallway. Mom walks out of her room, and she's right in the kitchen, and the other side of the kitchen is the living room. It's set up nice. There's a lot of individual care. She's got a full bath off the bedroom. She's got a TV that they installed, and she got a hospital bed. The room is average-sized. She can help with the cooking if she wants to. They have games and knitting. They have an outdoor patio where she can birdwatch. They have a lot of feeders out and stuff like that. It was a little expensive."

"My mother-in-law moved into Green Oaks of Goshen. They've been very welcoming and accommodating. It's a low-income housing. They were very helpful to us during the Medicaid process. It's brand new, so it's clean and in good condition. The one thing I have been dissatisfied with a little bit is the maintenance. She's had a couple of maintenance issues and they haven't been tended to as quickly as they should have. The staff is kind and attentive. The food is fine. They offer bingo, they offer trips to the store, play cards, they have UNO, they had Thanksgiving dinner, a luau, and trick or treating. The residents passed out candy to the neighborhood children. The rooms are very spacious, and the layout is good."

"Miller Senior Living is a perfect fit for my mother. It is clean and over the top. The people are attentive and friendly. The food is outstanding. They are very responsive to any questions I have on the first month. They follow up; the housekeeping and the administration. They have all kinds of activities for them. They have bible study and exercise classes. They have people come in and read historical topics. It is only a mile from the hospital. "

"My mother is in Autumn Trace. Their staff is very caring, and they try to customize their care to the individual needs of the residents. They're good at communicating. I just had some food last Friday when they brought her plate to her because she wasn't able to go to the dining room. And it was good. It's immaculate. They have a full time activity director. They have bingo, drumming, trivia, movie nights, game days, a knitting club, and book club. Sometimes they'll arrange outings with the residents that are able to. They supply a refrigerator and a microwave. It's got a nice walk-in shower with a seat and nice cabinetry. They have four different screened-in sunrooms, and they have a courtyard. They also have a separate dining room kitchen area that you can use at no charge for family gatherings that seats up to 20 people. If you're going to eat in the dining room, that's extra. But you can bring your food and if you like, say your family member is able to, maybe they're wheelchair bound, you're not able to get them out, you can have a gathering there like for their birthday or something, and use that dining room, that common space. It's only three years old, so it's really nice."
