University Place West Lafayette, IN

University Place was good for what they did for me. We had exercises, card games, movies, and entertainment. The place was pretty expensive, but the food was good.

My parents have been independent residents here for 7 years. We have never had a complaint or issue that administration was not willing to address. Several of their friends have gone on to need assisted or even full skill care. I would say the same thing I would apply to any healthcare facility...family participation in care is critical to safe delivery (checking med list, following up on changes, etc). While it is certainly EVERY facilities obligation to provide safe care, families need to take some responsibility in being part of that safety net. In terms of their facility, dining, quality of food, décor, activities, and caring staff you can NOT get better than this level in Lafayette. We've even enjoy live music during Sunday meals, been to outdoor Hawaiian parties, cook-outs and even taken hot air balloon rides for a special celebration in the courtyard. It is located immediately connected to the Celery Bogs with paved walking trails and beautiful nature center. If you can't find something to like here I think it might be time to check your perspective.

My in-laws lived at University Place for over ten years. It is a beautiful and clean facility, and the food is pretty good but the upfront cost and monthly rent are very expensive. The staff seemed nice, but my in-laws had some items missing from their apartment and weren't very happy about it and nothing was ever done to compensate them for their losses.

Both of my parents lived here. My mother's jewelry was stolen and my dad had bedsores. My opinion is that this is a money hungry facility and they want every penny they can get.

The people at University Place were very nice. We liked them a lot. The rooms were very nice as well. I visited a man there. He had a two-bedroom apartment. There was a very nice living room, nice windows, and nice decorations. The kitchen was small, but it had a fridge, a stove, and a microwave.

A good business for the owner. They respect the money more than human. I went there to see the facilities and the staff. I asked if I can wait for my friend who was a resident there. Unfortunately, they were not friendly to us. I waited there for 15 minutes and left it forever. Get prepared to see them do not respect your guests. However, it is a nice looking and clean facility if you do not care about respect.

This assisted living facility is modern and state of the art. The facility was visibly clean upon entering and the grounds were kept beautifully. On site there is a pond as well as a nature preserve with walking trails. The residents were well dressed, seemed content, and the lobby was full of visiting families. This is not usually the case at other retirement homes. One thing that particularly stood out to me was the pleasant smell. There was no "eau-de-old" smell. I visited the home for a weekend brunch. The dining area was very well maintained. It was almost as if you were being served at a fine dining establishment. There were linens on the table as well as proper flatware. This was quite a change from the other homes I have visited. Other homes use cafeteria or hospital style trays. The food was excellent. My friend and I enjoyed both breakfast and lunch items. There were mostly healthy, low sodium, whole grain items on the buffet. This was a nice touch.

All of the people were very friendly. I enjoyed my time there. I enjoyed the bingo and poker tournaments they wet up. They had a really good dining court. I enjoyed the food there. We had a tennis and basketball court, and a swimming pool. There was free internet access at the place, and I shared a room with 2 other people. The medical facilities were very good, and it was all covered by medicare. Overall, I am very satisfied with this facility.
