Assisted Living Communities in Westfield, IN

"Sunrise on Old Meridian was great. My mother will have a little one-bedroom there and she'd have someone reminding her to take her medication. It seemed like a good level of care for her and they have lots of social activities. We got to see the calendar for activities and it is very informative. It's a very impressive, beautiful facility. There's no odor. It was very clean, orderly, and beautiful inside. I met Julie and she was great. She was very patient. We got to see where they eat and there's a private dining room where you can reserve for family dinners. There's a snack area as well. The dining room was beautiful and spacious."

"We were looking for a place that would care for my mom the way we would, and we found that place at A Family For Mom. The Metzler family puts the residents that are in their care first. In all aspects of the day; from grooming, to feeding, to engaging in activities, to constant communication with the resident’s loved ones, there are so many reasons to feel at ease! I love the personal updates, photos, and videos offered throughout the day, and I feel like the Metzler family have become an extended part of our family now! Best of all, I am assured that my mother is receiving the attention she needs and deserves. With around the clock care,, the Metzler’s are always there to support my mother with kindness and dignity. We have noticed positive improvements in her quality of life since mom has become a part of .this special place, A Family For Mom."

"Facility-wise, Harbour Manor & The Lodge was very clean and very nice. The rooms they got weren't as big as the rooms that I visited in the other two facilities, but they were still nice. The young lady did a nice job. Her name was Brooke, and I would rate her very high. She's very knowledgeable and very friendly. She toured me to the whole facility. She took me into one of the private rooms and showed me all the different things that they did. They also had a movie room and just about everything the other facilities had."

"We toured Bickford of Carmel. They were a top choice for us, so that's one possibility. However, they don't have nursing, but they will adjust their care level within their assisted living scope, which is a nice option. In other words, they'll charge you more and give you more care without putting you in a nursing home, and that's an excellent approach. It has a homey feel to it, and they had a system inviting family to be a part of a council where they meet regularly to try to improve whatever changes are needed. So, that was an exceptional approach. The staff who assisted us was terrific. He even offered to help with that search if we were looking at other things or other places, which was a reach-out thought concept."

"I toured Grand Victorian of Zionsville East. My children live within 10 minutes of the place, and I'm very happy with the rooms. And I got a cat that I'm bringing with me there. The only thing I can't bring is my bird feeders, but that's okay because my son is an active bird feeder, so I'll give it to my son. And he is not that far from me, so I can go see him anytime I want. So I'm very pleased with this place. The staff answered everything. They've been very good to me. The size of the rooms is good. They're better than what I've got now. The upkeep of Grand Victorian is going better. It seems like everything looks good. I was really impressed with the facility. Everybody was friendly. Everybody was nice to me. I just felt wanted there. Regarding the food, I have kidney failure and heart failure, so there are a lot of things I'm not allowed to have, and I have to be very careful because it's landed me in the hospital a number of times. And Grand Victorian will offer me the diet that I'm allowed to have. I've seen the menu, and they serve a lot of chicken, a lot of fish, and a lot of salads. They serve a lot of the things that I'm allowed to have. The rooms are big. And that's good if you have an animal with you, and I got a cat. Everything looks good. I couldn't say anything bad about it. As for activities, they have activities, and they have trips that they take. They're active and I like to be active. I don't want to sit in my room all the time."

"My mother is in Rittenhouse, but it is expensive. I would like to find another place for her, but we’re having trouble finding one within our budget. I was impressed by the friendliness of the staff and its extreme cleanliness. They’re very caring. The apartments are very nice; the walls are painted, and you can put up anything you want. There are double and single apartments. The singles are a little on the small side, but you don’t need much other than a bed and your personal possessions, so I was really impressed. The dining setup is lovely. I have not eaten the food, but I’ve talked to people, and they said the food is very good. I know they have lots of activities. I saw the activity room and watched people do art projects, so they keep them pretty busy. I’m sure they’re fine for people on Medicaid, but I wish the business as a whole was more affordable. "

"What I like about Meadow Brook Senior Living, first of all, is the community relations director, she's the person who interfaces with the public as they come in and with the family. The main reason I wanted that facility is that she was so helpful to me in explaining the process of getting somebody into a nursing home and what were the requirements. Also, they can stay in the facility and transition to Medicaid after two years of self-pay. There are a lot of other good things about the place. It was nice to look at. It looked comfortable and friendly. And it's not far away from where I live. The units are one bedroom with an attached bathroom. And, for a greater amount, you can get a larger room that has a little room for a sitting area. If you pay for smaller rooms, they're just about small enough for a twin bed, a chair, and a desk, and they're pretty small. The staff who toured me was so excellent both in interacting with me about my particular situation, which was a little bit complicated since my sister was living overseas, and in telling me what the steps were that I needed to achieve before I could get her admitted and encouraging me and telling me about this Medicaid option. Just this very personable person that I liked. I wanted to work with her."

"The Commons on Meridian is bright. It's not dark at all. They have good-sized rooms. They have a nice kitchen and bathroom area. The common areas are very nice too. They will do laundry for you or you can go to their resident laundry area if you like to do your own. They have a courtyard that's very nice. They offer respite care for a month minimum. The community was quiet, but they have a movie room for residents to go and watch movies together. They have an arts and crafts area. It was very nice. The dining room was not very nice, but everybody was very friendly. The sales director was very accommodating. The people that we met in the hallway all said hello, and so it seemed very friendly."

"I toured Traditions at North Willow. The people are cordial. It was a nice visit. The staff was excellent. The rooms were nice. The upkeep was excellent."

"Zionsville Meadows was half a mile from my house and I liked it. It had the little independent houses and cottages and it's a real close walk to the activity center. Everything was nice and the price was right. It was a good choice. We also got the assisted living tour. The activities sounded very adequate, which the staff showed me, and I even met the activities person. It was an older facility, but adequate."

"I toured Traditions at Solana. Their price was competitive. It was very fair for a couple of other places that were of similar quality. So the pricing was very good. They were very willing to work with me on that. As soon as I walked into the building, I got this very homey kind of cozy vibe. It is a very comfortable feeling. The facility was very clean. All the staff I interacted with were very kind and polite, especially towards the residents because I got to take a peek behind the doors into memory care and see what all that looked like. I just liked the general attitude of the environment. The apartment looks nice. It was very well taken care of. It didn't look like a rundown or anything. It was very up-to-date and the safety features were all there when they needed to be and all that stuff. It was a very adequate facility."

"Hamilton Trace was a nice facility. The apartments were nice as well. The staff was very friendly. I like its convenience to where I live. So, it would be close for me to go and visit my dad if needed. I like that it's a bigger facility, because they tend to have memory care for Alzheimer's/dementia patients."

"What a lovely facility and such an improvement from Grand Victorian where Mom was previously. The staff is very hands on here. Jim, the Executive Director, has his office right off the entry foyer so it is very easy to interact with him. We have had very positive experiences with the Speech Therapy group and those in the Resident Assistance group called CORSOCare. Highly recommend!"

"The rooms are pretty big, clean, and functional. The food is awesome as I have eaten with Mom. All of the staff are caring, empathetic, kind and qualified. There are many activities for the residents to participate in. The doctors and nurses visit regularly. Medications are dispensed correctly. Independence Village of Fishers is a nurturing environment that if I needed to I would place myself."
