Rittenhouse Village at Michigan City

Are you tired of shoveling snow, mowing the lawn, changing the furnace filters, repairing appliances, and even changing light bulbs my husband and I moved into Rittenhouse Villas and we love it!

multiple Family members have lived here throughout the years, My aunt had to utilized their wonderful extensions of care due having dementia she was able to keep functionality with familiar friends and workers by transitioning from villa to the assisted side and finally to memory care where she was still able to stay close to friends she made in the community. Another family member loved the the independence the bus trips to the stores and Dr rides on Tuesdays and Thursdays gave her even though she could'nt drive gave her some freedom. the only thing I did not care for was The foot Dr was not with the building so he only came to facility every couple months if you used him sometimes it was a wait, But Its was great they had the option,

It was far and above the best community available locally and the value for cost exceeded other choices. The floor plan is generous and well designed. The community is clean and inviting. The staff are friendly and caring. I would recommend Rittenhouse as a great place to live in Michigan City.

Rittenhouse in Michigan City has been a wonderful experience right from the beginning. The admissions person was very knowledgeable and welcoming throughout the process. The atmosphere is so welcoming and cozy and my Mother just loves it there. I would highly recommend Rittenhouse to others.

I would definitely have my parents live here. its such a warm, inviting place. and it is so beautiful and clean

The staff at Rittenhouse MC exceed expectations for their care, dietary skills, and friendly home environment. The staff treats the residents, their family members and service providers as if we are one extended family. The cleanliness of the building dietary department and personal care/services exceed all expectations even during these difficult medical times.

Residents always look great and well cared for. Rittenhouse has great activities for a wide variety of interests. The food is fabulous. I have never heard a complaint about the chef cooked meals. Too bad they are not available for the community to purchase and take home. Meals rival anything that can be found in a restaurant. The staff always seem caring and concerned.

The staff at Rittenhouse Michigan City are very compassionate and go above and beyond for their residents. There is always something fun going on in the community and the food is delicious. We work very closely with their team providing hospice care for their residents allowing them to age in place and the staff is very compassionate and they communicate very well.

Very supportive of residents and their families. Always available to assist our Home Health Care Agency with anything we need to help take care of our patient with their nursing/therapy services. Thanks you Rittenhouse!

My Dad lives in this community and we couldn’t be happier with his care.

The staff are very friendly and very helpful. We've had a few little issues here and there, like the maintenance staff can be slow to get to requests. I also think there might be some communication issues between the front desk/doctors/care staff. But if our loved one falls, they call us immediately and let us know. The doctors and nurses on staff are great, so your loved one will receive good care. They're very attentive, so we feel very good having our loved one there.

The staff and residents are so nice! I really appreciate how attentive the staff are to my needs. I enjoy to call Rittenhouse my home! I have recommended Rittenhouse to many people and will continue to do so!

The best part of Rittenhouse is….NO WORRIES! The meals are delicious- just like if I made them but I don’t have the mess! I really enjoy Rittenhouse and I would definitely recommend them to anyone!

Good Friends- Good Food- & Good Times

Within the last month, I discovered that my loved one's toenails had not been trimmed for so long that they had started growing sideways. When I addressed this with the nurse, it was apparent that she had no intention of correcting the problem. When I informed her that I had taken a picture of her foot and told her I considered this issue neglect, she contacted with podiatrist to come in. The last three weeks (three separate visits), I have informed the aides, Executive Director, nurses and Memory Care Director that my loved ones bed had bath towels placed on her bottom sheet and no top sheet. The aides offered various excuses or blamed someone else. The Executive Director, nurses and Memory Care Director all said they would look into and resolve. Nothing happened until my fourth visit this weekend when I got loud, angry and threatened legal action. At that time, the employees on duty assessed the situation and informed me that I needed to supply disposable mattress pads which I immediately did. Shame on the aides, Executor Director, nurses and Memory Care Director for inaction involving a 93 year old woman who can no longer speak for herself.

My mother has been at the Memory Care area of Rittenhouse in Michigan City for two years. The first year, she received exceptional care and activities. The last 6 to 8 months, we noticed the level of care has diminished and there are no activities. A monthly list of activities is posted in the dining area and in each residents rooms to look good, but the activities are not offered. Basically, she gets up to eat breakfast, lays in bed, gets up for lunch, lays in bed, gets up for dinner and lays in bed because there are no activities for her to engage in. When addressed with the Executive Director, I was told this was being worked on. Since this has been going on for so long, unfortunately, we are reluctant to believe things will change. How sad.

My sister took a tour of this community for our my mother, and her needs. Unfortunately they were able to take my mother in the condition she was in, but this is a beautiful community from what she told me.

While my mother was at Rittenhouse Village, it was okay. We moved her out of there to another community. We have no complaints.

Rittenhouse Was Totally Misleading! Mom has Alzheimer's and needed secure care. They evaluated her, said she needed care at a level 2. No problem. Dad moved into their villas to be near mom. Rittenhouse suggested family stay with mom and keep Comfort Keepers (paid service) for a bit to ease the transition. This turned into their requiring someone with mom 24/7 until she could get into a behavior hospital. Meantime, they apparently don't clean the villas when it snows and promised cleaning of the floor did not happen (was not done before move in). After 2 weeks in behavior hospital and now on meds, Rittenhouse advised (on the day before release) they could not care for mom, so she can't come back. After scrambling to find a place for mom, dad advised office he would be moving to be near mom as they were not able to care for her. Even with 2 weeks notice and a waiting list to get in they refused to waive the 30 day notice for dad. All guests in the memory care unit received the same care...so apparently everyone is a Level 2. It became clear it was about making money, not care...Beware of what you are promised or assured will be provided.

I contacted "A Place For Mom" in need of a place for my dad in a hurry and they were extremely helpful in helping me do just that." A Place For Mom" called around and set up tours for our family and checked back on our progress and he was placed in one the next day. I was very grateful for the help in our time of need and I would refer them to anyone in my place. Thank u A Place For Mom.
