#2 in Lafayette, IN

Residents and their families say:

This community receives widespread praise for its caring and attentive staff, who are frequently highlighted as a primary reason residents and their families are happy with the services offered. Many reviewers appreciate the sense of family and the welcoming environment, stating it feels like home as soon as you walk through the doors. The size of the community is often mentioned favorably, as residents receive more personalized attention in a smaller setting. Additionally, the variety of activities and social opportunities available are seen as significant benefits, helping residents stay engaged and make new friends.

Nonetheless, some reviewers did mention that the smaller size of the community might not satisfy those looking for a bustling environment with numerous social opportunities. The quality and flavor of the food are areas pointed out by several reviewers as needing improvement, with some meals described as lacking flavor or being served cold. The cost of care increased for some residents due to additional services, like medication management. Agency staff hired during weekends or holidays were noted as less familiar with residents, leading to some inconsistencies in care.

The reviews indicate a strong consensus that the community provides a supportive, safe, and clean environment for residents. Families express gratitude for the efforts of the staff in making challenging transitions easier for their loved ones and themselves. While there is room for improvement in specific areas like meal service and handling cost fluctuations, the overall sentiment is that residents receive excellent care and enjoy living in a close-knit community.
