Heritage Retirement Village in Yorktown, Indiana, has a single-story building near Morrow's Meadow and the White River Greenway Trail, so you get the comfort of a quiet place with some nice views of nature if you go outside. The community provides assisted living, memory care, independent living, and short-term respite care, all in one location, since it's a Continuing Care Retirement Community. It's set up for folks who need some help with daily activities like dressing, bathing, and medication management, but also for those who want to live on their own without worrying about household chores. The staff is around 24 hours a day and can help in emergencies, with things like moving from bed to wheelchair, monitoring insulin, or managing medicines.
Residents can choose from studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, or semi-private rooms, and rooms come with a mini fridge, a private bath, windows for natural light, and some have a patio to sit outside. Room sizes start at 184 square feet for studios. You see some household help here, since staff handle housekeeping, laundry, and all the little things like fixing light bulbs or shoveling snow, so living here is pretty much maintenance free. Three chef-prepared meals are served daily in the dining room, with tray delivery available if someone's feeling unwell.
For folks with memory problems, Alzheimer's, or dementia, there's a secured Memory Care Neighborhood where staff provides special programs to keep residents safe and comfortable, lowering stress and reducing wandering. Personalized care plans match people's needs, so all care-whether it's for ambulation, diabetes, or general daily tasks-can be adjusted over time. The community accepts private pay, social security, veteran's benefits, and commercial insurance. There are several fees like a community fee, respite fee, buy-in fee, different rates based on care needs, and a second person fee.
Activities happen both on-site and off-site with choices like fitness, music, social events, and educational talks aimed at the mind, body, and soul. Residents can join life enrichment programming, enjoy indoor common areas, or go to devotional activities that are sometimes held off the property. There are quiet, outdoor spaces to relax, and pets are allowed. Transportation is offered for appointments or outings, and there's always a focus on socialization and movement to keep everyone as active and engaged as possible. Heritage Retirement Village matches its services to each person so people feel at home while getting the help or companionship they need.
