Description

Over 32 acres of friendly and beautiful environment, Altenheim is definitely a nurturing community for families. They offer an array of services as an independent living facility with assisted living and memory care options. They follow a philosophy called Family-first, which dates way back to 1977 when CarDon & Associates was first established. This community group now extends throughout south-central Indiana and has involved all members to prioritize each resident’s personal care. They ensure that residents are able to feel a sense of comfort and joy with their time at the community, as well as opportunities to socialize, enjoy, and learn– considering that it’s a community with a stimulating environment.

Altenheim promotes an oasis-kind of escape found in their own community. The community has a list of services that puts the well-being of residents first– personalized care plan with assessment and development; 24-hour nursing services available everyday; social, cultural, and educational activities and programs. Community amenities and features include emergency response system, paved walking paths, chapel with organ, scheduled transportation, weekly housekeeping and linen services, laundry services, and restaurant-style dining rooms– to name a few of the services they offer to make the lives of each resident hassle-free.
