Our Experience
The staff smile to your face and talk about you behind your back. They are, at ties, mean to the residents. Housekeeping was poor, at best. They only clean the rooms once a week. They don't clean the carpets, that is left to the family. Communication was iffy, at best. It really depended on who was there. The weekend staff was wonderful! Move in seemed to go okay. The meals were very bland. They were not offered snacks throughout the day. Family provided those. They could actually care about the people who are living there and not worry about money so much. Be honest with the family when they are looking for someplace to put their loved ones.

Recommended for Memory Care
My loved one is a resident at Altenheim. I'm not sure how often they clean, but could empty trash and sweep especially the hardwood floors more. Communication with the family is great. The move in process was smooth. From what I have observed, the food could be better. Each time I have been there, it has been cold. Overall, I would recommend the Memory Care unit to others.

Friendly Environment, But Room for Improvement
The staff are very engaging. My loved one has already made friends with other residents. I feel that my loved one is happy and safe. They do not offer a low salt diet to the residents, and this is something that could be improved upon. The delivery of meals in the dining room can be slow for the residents to receive their meals and then the food can arrive cold. There is bingo, music, and more for activities for the residents to participate in.

Fits her needs well
The Altenheim community has just been a wonderful experience for our loved one so far, she has as happy as a clam. It has fit her needs perfectly and we would absolutely recommend them to other families. She participates in different card games, bingo and has even joined the walking club. Our loved one hasn't been able to walk for years and now she is all over the place with her walker. Living alone and going through covid really just did our loved one in and now being here she is able to mingle and socialize whenever she wants.

Highly recommend
We went with Altenheim because of the extensiveness of their care. They have an attached skilled nursing facility, a memory care unit, and even a dialysis unit. They were also about $1000 a month less than where she was at previously so the value here is great. The staff is very cooperative and good at what they do. My mother loves it and would definitely recommend them to others.

So far, so good....
My father is adjusting well since his move to this community, he seems to like it. He goes to mass on Sundays but does not really partake in the other activities they offer. He loves the breakfast, it is his favorite meal of the day. He does not like the meals on the weekends, though. He says that they are not as good because they have a different chef then.

Fabulous community!
This is a very nice looking place. The building itself is a bit dated, and the food leaves a little to be desired, but the care our loved one received here was excellent. They are very well staffed, there is always someone available to help when you need them. The community is a bit on the expensive side, however.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Indiana regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Indiana regulations for Assisted Living.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Altenheim

Altenheim offers Studio and 1 Bedroom. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Altenheim 6.9 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
