Tutera Senior Living and Healthcare

My mother recently passed away. She spent her last years at Pathfinder House/Place and I couldn't be more grateful that she did. I will admit there was a time the building had some areas of inconsistency. In the last 3 years since the administrator Eric took over things have been very good. My mom felt like she was at home with family, and we felt like we were embraced into a vary special family as well. I was amazed when staff that had moved on whether it was to nursing school or other jobs came back to visit mom when she took a turn. I can't speak enough about the staff and particularly how Eric made the last 3 years of my moms life so very special. When he visited in the hospital the night she passed the smile on that he put on her face, brings tears of gratitude to my eyes even now. Not the biggest place in Fremont, but the biggest heart.

At this point they are doing very well. I don't have any major concerns. It's very clean, and the staff is friendly. It's almost like a hotel or a resort. It's still new, but so far, I am very happy with it.

About five years ago my then 91 year old mother wanted to move from here senior living apartments on the Northeast side of Indy. We visited almost every assisted living facility on the north side if the city to find the best one for her needs. That exercise paid off because after meeting with Vicky Meier and taking a tour, my mother was completely impressed with the entire package including care, price, location and value. According to my mother, THE most important feature in a senior living facility is the quality and verity of the meals. After five years of living at the Forum, she still brags about the quality of the meal service. My wife and I usually have lunch with mom on Hloidays. We always experience a quality well prepared meal too. Last year my mother wanted to move to a ground level apartment from the third floor. Before she moved in they completely refurbished the apartment. New granite countertops, carpeting, fresh coat of paint and built-in microwave. It was like a brand new apartment.

Most caring and warm staff. Lovely facilities. Good food!

I would like to write a review for Cottonwood Assisted Living due to the fact that I feel they provide Exceptional Care to their residents. I have provided nursing visits in this facility and have been a Registered Nurse in the area for over 30 years. I must say that for an Assisted Living, Cottonwood does an outstanding job. Many Assisted Living Communities are unable to provide care to their patients as needs progress and become a higher level. But, at Cottonwood this is not the case. They grow with the patients through their changing needs. I feel they do an outstanding job with memory care patients. They work in collaboration with home health and hospice agencies as well to provide the highest level of care for their residents. As a health care worker in the community of Columbus, I would highly recommend Cottonwood Place.

The people that work here have been terrific to us. They have gone out of their way to help us get my father settled.

Forest Creek Commons was the best place we found on the south side of Indy we found. Very clean great food i trust the people there to take care of mom.

We use both the assisted living and memory care areas. The assisted living is a little cleaner than the memory care. The assisted also has a little better response time. We have a couple of little issues with the memory care side. I understand it's difficult with memory care and the type of residents, but it could be a little cleaner and there have been some trouble with the laundry. They were the nicest, cleanest, and the staff was friendlier than the other places we looked at. The food is good.

McKay Manor is an Awsome place to be! The staff is so kind and helpful. They are here in minutes to help you, wether you fall or just need their help! The food is really Good! The activities are fun! Overall I love it here! You have your inde penance, but, have help if you need!! The apartments are really nice and spacious.

It really is good. My father-in-law is now living at Northwood Manor. He loves it there. They're good to him and the transportation is good. He has a beautiful apartment. He is what I would call almost a hoarder and when I go into his place it's immaculate! The cleaning staff comes in once or twice a week. I would give them huge kudos for that! My one complaint is the nursing director is not capable of multitasking and she can't get people's medication's right and she does not direct her nursing staff correctly. The managing director, Melissa, is amazing and the food is good too. I would sent my parents there but with an outside firm to manage their medications. I would not trust Northwood Manor's nursing director to do that.

WE are taking one day at a time with the help of the great staff a Hope Memory Care. They have been God sent for our family.

we were impressed with the friendliness and energy of the whole staff. mom needs activity, encouragement and caring attention and we felt this home offered all of that. her room is very nice, the food is very good and there are so many activities to keep mom occupied and her brain engaged. we are so happy so far with the choice we made for mom!!

The transition was easy for my dad and we feel he is being well cared for and they are meeting his social, physical and emotional needs. We are informed and also they ask for information that will help them meet his needs.

We were looking a couple of years ago (2/2 and a half) and I think the food was better here than other places. At that point mom did not want to go in but it's cheaper than other places, we had mom ready to move there. When we toured we were very excited and we had an opportunity to go out and have dinner and lunch and the food was excellent, the apartment was a lot cheaper than others. She wouold have paid less for a one bedroom here than a studio at other places. I would have put them euqal to others but we weren't there to see how the maids worked and it's a little bit secluded, they did provide transportation but I didn't get a chance to see it in operation, it was on a promise.

The reason that we choose “Jefferson Manor” is because its was so much nicer than many of the other places that we looked at. The people and staff are really nice and friendly and my dad says that he really enjoys the food. Plus the person at “Jefferson Manor” was really good about working with us to get everything to fit in my dad’s fix budget and they still continue to help us even today. My dad is happy at “Jefferson Manor” it was a good choice.

The food could be improved. Clean the carpets. Activities Director was excellent.

Most of the staff was friendly and responsive...not enough nurses for amount of patients which is typical of most nursing homes. Activities were interactive and sometimes creative. Food was average, dining experience and dining room were good. My dad's room was overall too small, otherwise ok. My mom's room was a little more spacious and it had nice cabinets in the kitchenette and bathrooms.

We chose Brenden Gardens for the facility in that it had individual apartments and included meals. The location is good because it's near the highway making convenient to doctors and hospitals and there is a very nice Southwind city park very close.

Our mother lived at Cottonwood for 14 years. The staff, [name removed], [name removed] and others were very caring and did there best to keep her comfortable and keep us informed about her condition. Mom always partipated in, and enjoyed, the variety of activities that were available. During her later time there, she needed more assistance and St Croix Hospice aided in her care giving , also doing an excellent job. She moved to another facility later in her life when she required 24/7 care.

Making this move has been extremely challenging, difficult emotionally as well as physically and financially. But once we got settled in, we noticed that the employees are very nice, very friendly and helpful.
