Elkhart was very nice, the staff member that showed me around was very nice, and everybody was helpful. However, the room was all-in-one, the bedroom and everything was there also. Otherwise, it was very good. The staff was very caring and very knowledgeable.

Beardsley House is a small facility, and it looks like they would have very individualized care, but it's not the type of care that my husband was looking for. The rooms are more of a studio type apartment.

Beardsley House is a little smaller with few residents and activities. Dad would be really bored there. The apartments and staff were really nice and conducting stretching exercises while I was there.

Management is poor and not professional. CNAs are always short staffed and forced to work later than scheduled . This place is not what it was even a year ago!
Provider Response
Thank you for your review. We always strive for excellent Customer Service, and will continue to develop and improve the professionalism that is on display to our residents, family, and friends. As for staffing, we base this on the amount of care required by our residents, not the amount of people that live at the community. In addition, staff is required to work until their oncoming staff member has reported to work, or accommodations have been made, which does cause the employee to work later than their assigned shift at times. Please feel free to call Beardsley House with any further concerns at (574) 295-9058.

We have been very disappointed in the decline of care that my dad is getting since we moved him into Beardsly House. The wait time on the call buttons is to long and one weekend they didn't work at all and the administrator would not come in to reset them.
There has been a big turn over in help since the new administrator has started so to me that seems to be a problem.

My mother has been living at Beardsley House and has loved the friendly family atmosphere and the delicious home-style cooking. That is until several months ago a new administrator started. He has cut back in staff and call lights take a long time to get answered. He hired new cooks and the food is so bad that often my mother does not eat her food. They have instant mashed potatoes every other day....burnt toasted cheese sandwiches....often the food is overdone and dry. We have problems getting the apartment cleaned on a weekly basis. Over the last few months we have been so disappointed to watch the facility go from a 5 star to a 1 star. .

I've started visiting family that is living there. I've worked as a cna in several elderly care homes. One main thing I have noticed here is the upkeep in the room. Trash cans overflowing, toilets filthy, would like to teach the cnas how to make a neat bed. All shoes care for the resident & facility.

I live near Beardsley House, and we were very impressed with it. My dad is very happy. They have one bedroom and studio apartments with handicapped bathrooms and a little kitchenette. The food was very good. They have an activities director. In the morning they have exercise, and in the afternoon they have games. They have church that comes on Sunday afternoon and have service. They have different people come in and interact with them to play piano, they have Boy Scout fairs and family nights.

Beardsley Crossing was an assisted living facility that had rehab and nursing care. I had friends who were staying there and they spoke highly of it. It was a new facility. I had seen one of their rooms and it seemed very cheerful, pleasant, colorful, warm and inviting.

Staff does not respond to "call lights" at night. They claim to have activities but do not and the billing system is terrible. Everything is done through corporate and not at site causing time delays of billing and invoices. Removed my mother from there after 2 1/2 months.

When I stayed at Beardsley House, they changed the management and it was worse. The new staff they hired were not as personal as the old staff when they dealt with the residents. Even the management was distant to the residents. The food was not good at all. The place was moderately maintained and cleaned sporadically. They tried to make it cost efficient and cut a lot of things out. We were not happy at all because we were used to some of the services and they cut them off. I thought they had limited staff who worked with the residents.
