care
reviewed on: 10/16/2016 by AnonymousMy dad is here and my main complaint is that there just arent enough aides to take care of all the memory care clients. the aides that work there are all very nice and helpful, but there needs to be more of them, especially during the weekend times. The rooms are also not cleaned as thoroughly as they should be, as often as they should be.
Great Amenities!!
reviewed on: 09/28/2016 by AnonymousI really enjoyed my tour of this facility the staff was friendly, especially our tour guide Nicole. They offered great amenities and the community was kept clean. They also have a great memory loss program that they offer to residents.
Very Satisfied!

Came away very impressed--for 3 reasons
reviewed on: 09/04/2019 by KJTrail Creek Place was one of several assisted living facilities in LaPorte County that I visited a couple of weeks ago. I was very impressed with this particular place and here's why: During the tour that I was given, I saw a lot of interaction between residents. Instead of everyone being isolated in their rooms in the middle of the afternoon, I saw quite a few people sitting in a common area in the front of the building. There were people at tables--playing games, talking, laughing with each other. There were a variety of activities mentioned that are available to Trail Creek Place residents. Not just the usual bingo and so on. There's even an opportunity for residents to help raise money for different charities such as Salvation Army--which I thought was very cool. Secondly, the spacious courtyard seems like an unusually pleasant place to enjoy some outdoor time--like when a family is visiting, for example. The exterior looks well kept and the neighborhood is nice. (The facility is near Immanuel Lutheran Church and the Franciscan Medical Center.) I was most impressed by the sincere nature of the person who gave me the tour--Tricia. Her presentation was relaxed and down-to-earth instead of hard-sell, and I was able to learn a lot during the tour and during our discussion without feeling pressured to move forward in the least. Perhaps that may say something about how this facility does business.
Great Facility
reviewed on: 06/07/2019 by Lori BohlimI can’t begin to say how very happy I’ve decided to bring my 99 year old Mom to Trail Creek Place. The entire staff is very friendly, helpful and most of all very dedicated to make sure that your loved one is well taken care for. I find that if you have any problems or concerns the staff will direct you, if they can’t answer the question to someone who can. Whether you need to talk to the Director or talk to an aide your question will be answered that day. My Mom is well taken care of. I feel very lucky to have my Mom here. 💕 Wonderful Facility
