I went to Altenheim. It was kind of old and sweet. The person that showed me around was very experienced. She was good, and she was honest. The reason he couldn't go there was that there were some steps that he would have to maneuver to get to the dining hall. The rooms there were very small. It's a very old facility, which has its own charm. They're pretty small. They had two rooms, and they had a sitting room.

The Altenheim is a lovely, small, not-for-profit facility nestled in the Highlands. The care is personalized, there are multiple activities for the residents and the staff is very caring. It is a home away from home!

My mom is in skilled care at The Altenheim as she took a turn for the worse, but they do offer care anywhere from independent living, assisted living, and skilled care. I think the independent living and the assisted living are part of a building that was originally an old mansion in town, and then they redid it to very nice units in a large enough apartment style. The skilled care where my mom is was added on in the late 80s. It was big enough for them, but small as they are taking care of 20 residents in total, but she is getting really excellent care. The rooms were better although there were still two beds in a room, but they each have a large full length window. They have their own restaurant service.
