Trail Creek Place Memory Care in Michigan City, IN
5.0

The facility is clean, cozy and home like. The staff is compassionate, attentive and respectful. Moving my loved one into Trail Creek Place was the best choice. Their activities director does an outstanding job of keeping the residents active and engaged. Trail Creek Place also has their dining room in three sections according to ability so the residents who can carry on a conversation are seated together encouraging social interaction.

I moved in and liked it so much I bought a second apartment for my mother! The staff is the most caring I have ever encountered and the facility is top-notch. Hope to meet you soon.

We would recommend to others and have already done so. We picked this community because it was good and they accepted Medicaid. Only Disappointment is with the Rx system in place.Very difficult to make the many prescription changes weekly & monthly as needed for Parkinson's with two additional people / offices in between the Dr and patient.
