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.... Read more
Family-first is the philosophy at Altenheim, an approach that goes back to 1977, when CarDon & Associates was first established. As a member of the CarDon family of senior living communities, which now extends throughout south-central Indiana, Altenheim encourages family members to become involved with each resident’s personal care plan.
Nestled on 32 beautiful acres, Altenheim is surrounded by lush lawns filled with walking trails, patios, a stocked fishing pond, and picnic area. Altenheim ensures a better quality of life each day for their residents, by treating them as they would their own loved ones. So, regardless of needs, every person is able to get the most out of each day.
As an independent living facility with assisted living and memory care options available, Altenheim offers an array of services for residents. Meals are provided through restaurant-style dining, daily. For residents who are still able to drive, resident parking is available, and for those who need assistance, transportation is provided.
Altenheim has many amenities allowing residents to take care of their chores on site. Residents can enjoy laundry services, beauticians, and barbers. Residents who love outdoor activities can stroll along the gorgeous walkway or spend some time by the...

Altenheim has good costs and the care is okay. They are friendly and they do feed the residents with good food. Overall it's okay. This place isn't terrible, it's just that me and my loved one have had our own experiences here.

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.

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.

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.

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.

A Place for Mom has scored Altenheim 7.5 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.
