Independence Village of Fishers South

I would like to compliment Rochelle on her efforts during the past week to clean my brothers apartment. Her dedication was exemplary!

My dad has been in this facility for just over a year and we feel very fortunate to have found this wonderful home full of loving people for him.

My dad has been in this facility for just over a year and we feel very fortunate to have found this wonderful home full of loving people for him. My dad is a man that had lived in the same home for over 50 years, never traveled and was very routine and so we knew this change would difficult for him. The last 10 years he had lived alone, and his health had begun to decline rapidly. When we found Independent South Fishers, we knew it would be a great fit. It is close to our home, a clean facility with friendly faces, good food options and so many activities no one could get bored. Even our kids love visiting Independent Village of Fishers South. They helped my dad go from barely walking, hardly eating, and having no desire to live to his lively happy self again. He had lost about 40 pounds and had basically given up. With their love and care he has completely turned around. He is walking, eating, interacting, and enjoying life again. They make him feel special and give us the peace of mind that he is safe and taken care of especially when we are busy with our young kids, it’s the middle of the night or we are on vacation. We are very thankful to have found Independent Village of Fishers South and the people that make this place his home.

Mom is at Independence Village of Fishers South. The staff and residents are nice to each other and to the new people. The size of the community is manageable. All of the necessary places where someone would need to be are on one corridor. The apartment size is very nice. Mom's in a one-bedroom with a small living room, and a little kitchen area with just a microwave, a refrigerator, and a sink. It's adequate and the people have been very accommodating. One downfall is that like everybody else, they are having trouble finding a staff person, like someone who would give insulin at night, for example, but they're trying to work on that. It's run a little differently. It's an age-in-place community, which means that in the ideal situation, mom would stay in her apartment and get increased help as she aged. They have bingo and card games. Mom expressed a fondness for Skip-bo and before the week, the marketing director had set up a Skip-bo teaching lesson to include some of the other staff and see if Mom got to try and find some people to play with. They also have movies, both Catholic and Protestant services and Bible study. They are an animal-friendly community. They have a resident cat and several of the residents on the first floor have little dogs. There are several people, including the marketing director, who bring in animals. One of them brought in baby goats one day, and one of them brought in baby pigs. This week they have newly hatched chicks and the residents are very fond of them. They have a happy hour every day at 4 where you can imbibe or not. They have outings and they provide buses to go to appointments. So, they have a lot of different activities. They have several sitting areas and there's an atrium area outside where they have encouraged people to come down. There's fruit and flavored water and coffee available down the lobby at all times. They have a wonderful maintenance man named Cleo and another person that works there who will come and help you in your apartment if you need help.

It’s a quality facility with incredibly caring staff. You can always find a staff member when you’re in need. Staff is always willing to divert their paths to assist any resident. All around a loving family between the staff and residents!

Independence Village of South Fishers has been a god-send for our Sister who is currently a resident in Memory Care. The staff are very loving, caring people that really have a passion for elder care. They are wonderful people who have become family. The facility is very clean, very attractive...

Independence Village of South Fishers has been a god-send for our Sister who is currently a resident in Memory Care. The staff are very loving, caring people that really have a passion for elder care. They are wonderful people who have become family. The facility is very clean, very attractive and the food is amazing! I highly recommend this facility for either independent living, assisted living or memory care needs.

My father moved in at Independence Village of Fishers South. He is still doing some adjustments, but he seems to like it there because he's doing OK. I couldn't be happier with it. I can't say enough good about the director and the assistant director. They are very accommodating people, very outgoing, made it very easy for us, and worked hard to get us in. Dad is in an efficiency apartment. It's spotless and it's been all redone. Zero entry shower, all ADA compliant. It's got a kitchenette in it. They can come and go as he pleases. It looks over a courtyard that has 2 small gardens, bird feeders, and trees. In the dining room, if he doesn't like what's on the menu, they fix what he wants. It's a pretty sweet setup. I ate lunch with him, and it was fine with me. Dad does rehab 3 times a week, he does chair exercise classes, and he goes to social hour. They do field trips, and they have transportation if needed. There's a gardening club and a reading club. He doesn't want to admit it, but he is enjoying the activities. The grounds seem to be clean and well-kept.
