My mother was in rehab at The Barrington of Carmel. The food was pretty good. We got to eat in the assisted living dining facility, and that was a 5. It's much newer and cleaner and more upscale than where she is now. The views were nicer and there were more trees. The staff was very attentive.

The Barrington of Carmel has been a wonderful home for my mom, Being a social person, she has had many friends and activities to engage in, and enjoys greatly the various opportunities the Barrington offers. The Masterpiece Living program has stimulated her physically, socially and spiritually, and she continues to grow and learn! We are so grateful to know she is in such a wonderful place-so well taken care of!!

The Barrington of Carmel was my favorite. It was fantastic. That’s the one I wanted them to move into. I worked in a hospital, and I had that kind of level of care in my mind. When we went there, they had a memory care unit and if my dad could be in assisted living or a regular unit. The, he could visit my mom as often as he wanted or have her out. They had outings for them. They were not just stuck in the memory care unit. The facility was beautiful; you could not ask for anything prettier. They had a gated community. So, if mom did get out and walk, she wouldn’t get away. There were trees all around the property. There was parking for my dad. It was not a covered parking, but he could have parking come and go if they had friends there. They had a lecture series where doctors came and gave talks. They even had people like Bobby Knight. In Indiana, he was a big name, and they would enjoy hearing that. Then, they had two different dining rooms. One was for assisted, and one was for the regular residents there, but they could go back and forth and borrow what they wanted. They could go to one or the other. They had a beautiful library. Everything was accessible for walking. They had an exercise room. They had a TV room. They said they do not have church services because they could not get any pastor to come there. So, I said, “Well, why don’t you have them do the internet church service?” They said like “Oh?!” They had a laundry service at the end of the hallway. So, they had to take their laundry down there or they could have it done for them. The rooms themselves were in adequate size. They had a nice view. There was a nursing station on every floor. It was centered right near the elevator where you could see on and off the floor and still had the care for my mom as needed. The presentation was beautiful. Every question was answered. I took my parents back over to see that one, and they really liked it too.
