A great place for mom
We chose Otterbein because of the cleanliness, friendliness of the staff members, and she was familiar with the location since we grew up on Jefferson Street. The facility itself did not look like an institution, it looked like a nice welcoming place that you want to be. I would recommend

A nice community with room for improvement
Downfalls are not having a pendant to call for help. There is a corded button. But dragging around a 15 foot long is just a trip and fall waiting to happen. Also, the shower area is just outdated and unsafe for anyone that has balance issues. Both times my Mom fell(not in the shower) it took others to get her help from the staff. First time I had to call the staff since she could not get them. The second time her neighbor luckily heard her screams and got someone to check on her. I think the actual nursing staff must really be strained to the max. They are extremely hard to reach on non-business hours. On a positive note. We chose Otterbein because of all the opportunities for activities. Their list far exceeds a lot of other assisted living facilities. Their lunch room is beautiful and has a lot of easy access. Their rehab area has a staff that are always friendly and helpful.

Otterbein Review
The food is great and the servers try very hard to please everyone as does the kitchen staff. The grounds and hallways are always well-kept and welcoming. The staff is friendly. This is the only facility that we looked at that would take Medicaid Waiver. The bathrooms are way too small to bathe in for elderly residents. The caregivers can never be found quickly. Very few of them seem to exist. The laundry staff is awesome! You couldn't ask for a place that has more activity areas and each is outstanding. Pricing is good as long as you don't expect caregivers checking in daily.

Peace of Mind
I feel that my parent is safe here. The community itself is old and needs some updates. However, I feel that she is being taken care of and I have peace of mind that she is there. They have a lot of activities however, my loved one is more private and with her hearing disability she does not do well in groups.

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.
