Greenwood Village South

I have been a resident at Greenwood Village South for four years. Prior to moving to GVS, I visited all the Senior Living Communities on the southside of Indianapolis and northern Johnson County to evaluate each community. The professionalism of the GVS Marketing Staff in presenting all the pertinent information at the two luncheons I attended made my decision an obvious one. Moving to GVS is one of the best decisions I have ever made. Living here is so much more than anything I could have expected. You will notice a sign saying, “Heroes Work Here” at the entrance to GVS. This motto is the epitome of what GVS is all about. Everyone loves a hero and GVS has a great team of heroes! I could list many reasons why individuals love GVS. However, those three simple words explain why living at GVS is such an enjoyable experience for your retirement years.

I am so blessed to live in a cottage at GVS since [date removed]. The entire staff at GVS is so helpful and show kindness to all. A call to the Maintenance Department results in my immediate maintenance needs to be taken care of. There are so many excellent activities to be involved with. The trips available are excellent and so well planned and supervised! GVS is the place to live!

GVS is a good place to live. It meets all the basic needs of its residents with a professional leadership team and a skilled support staff whose efforts are fully dedicated to meet those needs. GVS is a place to enjoy. This is a welcoming community with multiple activities for multiple interests. If one is bored, it is by choice, not by lack of opportunities. GVS is a place of safety and health. The well-equipped fitness center and the clinic with well-trained staff available 24/7 for needs and emergencies provide me, as well as my out-of-town family, a sense of security. GVS is a place to call Home!

After 22 years of Florida sun and fun it was time to come home. GVS had been on our radar for some time and in 2021 the opportunity presented itself. The decision was quick, the move not so easy. The staff was great in handling our needs from a thousand miles away. We are very pleased with our cottage and the friendly atmosphere of GVS.

It is a blessing to live at GVS …...for over 15 years. The safety and security experienced continue to be quite comforting. Utility bills and maintenance are on someone else. We sold the driveway, sidewalk, yard, shrubbery, and upkeep. Downsizing to a more comfortable living space was a great stress releaser. Our family feels good about where we are. A “Continuous Care” Facility provides insurance that even if we run out of money we will be taken care of. The surrounding community is serviceable and available. The staff are good people and so is the food.

I have lived in Johnson County all my life and have multiple friends who live or have lived at Greenwood Village South over the years and have so many great things to say. I have two friends who attended an event just last week and called me to tell me about it and they are setting an appointment next week! I think it might be time for me to start looking as well.

I love living at GVS and have for 11 years. This decision to move to GVS has been a gift to my children since I made the choice for myself. Coming here at a younger age was a great decision because it truly becomes your home! I am grateful the staff does everything they can to make us feel safe and cared for. The added bonus is all the great friends that come into your life!

GVS is a CCRC or Continuing Care Retirement Community. There are so many activities here to keep everyone who is interested able to enjoy life. All in all we are a large family working together who help each other enjoy these retirement years of our lives. GVS is made up of 86 free standing independent homes, a large independent living apartment building, assisted living facility, rehab, memory care and skilled nursing. Whatever your need may be you will find it here! All of this is resting on 75 acres whereby you can walk or ride a bike free of traffic. I have lived here for 25 years and I am very happy to have spent these retirement years in such a wonderful place.

There are many selections for food, and the food is delicious. The maintenance team responds quickly. There are many activities available for us, to include cards, bingo, working on puzzles, plus many others that we have not tried yet. The friendships we've made are wonderful. And, we've become reacquainted with many people we have known in the past, which has been a great bonus. We think it would have been better if we'd moved in sooner rather than later. All the staff have been excellent, from administrative, to housekeeping, and all. We appreciate all the services available.

I feel very safe and live independently. The neighbors are friendly and care about one another. The Maintenance Department at GVS is very prompt in making repairs that are needed. There are various ways of participating in activities for social entertainment as well as a convenient Wellness Center for physical exercise for individual use or classes taught by an instructor. The location of Greenwood Village South is convenient for shopping at grocery stores or other retail stores and also close to various church denominations.

My 97-year-old father is a happy resident of the Manor at GVS. We started checking out facilities last spring after he had a fall at home. Our tour of the Manor confirmed his already high opinion from many years of visiting friends and relatives there. He wanted to remain in his home of 70 years, but also be ready when he could no longer live alone. In late August a painful bruised rib put him in ER and he decided to go into rehab at [community removed]. The excellent care and attention there convinced him to move into assisted living at the Manor as soon as he was able. He has been at the Manor since [date removed] where he enjoys the excellent food and friendly atmosphere along with worry-free care and assistance from dedicated nurses, aids, household and dining staff. It’s been a great move!

My in-laws moved into a cottage home at GVS in [date removed] while in their 70s. They enjoyed all of the activities, opportunities to get involved, meet others, and experience maintenance-free independent living. When my mother-in-law became terminally ill she moved to the [community removed] and received very good care. My father-in-law has now lived in the apartments for 8 years. What makes GVS 5 stars? Amazing friendships, good exercise, fun entertainment, quality meals, engaging activities, enriching trips, and excellent staff all in one place. In fact, our family believes he is still thriving at age 92 because of all he has been able to contribute to the GVS community and all it has given back to him in the [date removed] years he has lived there. We appreciate how the staff responded and adapted so quickly to the pandemic and its challenges. We are fortunate to have GVS in Greenwood!

My mom moved into GVS on [date removed] and the entire staff has gone out of their way to welcome her. [name removed], [name removed] and the Clinic staff have been very helpful in making sure that mom gets her meds in a timely manner. [Name removed]has spent quite a bit of time with mom orienting her to her new home and has always gone out of her way to be helpful. [name removed] made a point to stop be mom's apartment and introduce herself and welcome her to her new home. The administrative staff has pitched in to assist with meal delivery. [Name removed] was kind enough to stop be with a dinner meal and a smile the other evening. THANKS to EVERYONE!!!!

I have lived at Greenwood Village for 2+ years in independent living and it is the best decision I have ever made. The activities are a wonderful way to get to meet the residents. The food is absolutely amazing, you have three entrees to pick from daily, plus their is a daily special as well. They have trips that you can take, such as day trips around Indiana as well as overnight excursions. During the covid pandemic, we were extremely protected and we have a 95% vaccination rate. I would strongly recommend you visit Greenwood Village when you are considering a continuing care facility. Once you walk through the front door you will immediately realize this is a very friendly facility and everyone you encounter from employees to residents are extremely friendly and most helpful.

I have been looking at various options for a senior living community for my closest friend for almost two years now. I was so pleased when i finally found Greenwood Village South. This community is head and shoulders above everything else I have ever experienced. I know my friend will be so happy when she moves in. :)

GVS is a community where the staff appreciates the experience and wisdom of their elders. That is important when you live here. Any time I have needed help, the staff is here. That’s anything from hanging pictures to arranging a luncheon for ten of your besties! We have input into movies each weekend as well as our book club selection. During the pandemic, my family appreciated the weekly letters from [name removed] they accessed online. Because they were aware of all the precautions being taken, they didn’t worry too much (a big plus for me). All in all, a very satisfying place to live!

We made the right choice when we decided to downsize. We made the decisions of our own elder care by joining Greenwood Village South, a continuing care community. We love our spacious cottage and live independently. GVS takes care of any maintenance, safety, and general well-being. We have lots of fun activities, delicious dining, excellent healthcare, and top-notch management. When and if we need more comprehensive care, it's right here at GVS!

I've now been with Greenwood Village for over 2.5 years and love it here. My family is happy with the care I receive. The staff and nurses help create a family like atmosphere that makes me feel comfortable.

We loved Greenwood Village. The staff is easy to work with. The campus offers everything! It's a little too expensive for our savings, unfortunately. Otherwise, this would be our new address.
