There is a distinctive smell of urine that they try to cover with deoderant. The seniors that recieve meals tell me the food is served cold. Getting maint. to take care of problems are impossible.

My grandmother and great aunt lived in this building for at least fifteen years. The place has…read moreNEVER redecorated, painted, cleaned or replaced carpet the entire time. The manager is not nice at all. They were incredibly rude to my mother about my grandmother, who suffered from dementia. There was zero personal connection with any of the tenants. The nurse on staff did not want to accommodate any needs and advised you to seek outside services. I have found tenants wandering and lost, when I told the staff no one cared and were rude sending them back. The entire moving out process was horrible and not accommodating especially since we had lost a loved one. They will nickel and dime every little thing. I would certainly not advise anyone to send their loved ones.

The staff who work there are great with the residents. The…read moreplace is very clean. The food preparation deserves 1 star. Meat is tough, veggies aren't done. Food served cold and takes an hour from ordering to receiving food. Manager deserves 0 stars. Poor relationship with the tenants....non empathetic and intimidating towards them. Corporate Headquarters- impossible to talk to- they either don't call back or you get transferred to an incorrect extension. You also have to give 2 MONTHS notice prior to moving. My father has had to move to a different facility, due to declining health. However, my mother is unable to leave for 2 months since financially they can't afford 2 apartments. This is the first time they have been apart in 66 years! I spoke to the manager and was told, there are 100 sob stories, but in the end, it's a business. So if you chose to move here, be sure to review your contract and I would take the time to check on other facilities.

While in Indianapolis this weekend, I went with my friend to visit her mother who recently became a…read moreresident of Independence Village in Avon. I was impressed from the minute I walked in the door. The receptionist was so welcoming, and she and my friend had a great conversation upon entering. The first thing I noticed was how clean the facility is (it was recently freshly painted) and how wide the hallways are, which allows easy access for walkers, etc. We went up to her mother's one bedroom apartment on the third floor and it was a good size for one person, complete with kitchen facilities and a big bathroom. (There are studios, and one- and two-bedroom apartments and I was able to see all of them on my visit.) While walking the hallways, I noticed the colorful artwork on the walls, the theater, the library, the activities center and several other amenities that indicated to me this was more a community than a "nursing home". It is quite a cheerful and friendly atmosphere. We then went down to lunch and sat with her and another resident. They both stated the food was quite good and they liked the selections provided for each meal (breakfast, lunch and dinner). The dining room is spacious, and the staff is amazing, friendly and interactive. While sitting in the dining room, the Director, Sue, came to the table to talk to her residents and we had a pleasant conversation also. I told her how impressed I was with this facility, and she thanked me, but also thanked me for allowing her to administer to "our loved ones that we put in her care". I was impressed! Sue definitely is dedicated and takes special pride in making sure the residents are well cared for and happy. If you are looking for a place to care for your loved ones when the time comes, I suggest you look no further than this facility. It really is top-notch! It also has a Memory Care facility. Although I did not visit that section, my friend said it is just as impressive.
