My family member has constant care. Many of the staff have been here for years.
This is a hard working crew of people. They deserve a round of applause. Nice community and well kept property.

My mom was in the rehab part of Greenwood Village South, and she was very happy there. The food was good (and she's a picky eater!), and the staff was very helpful and kind. The rehab room is very large with impressive equipment. Another thing she like was the community area right outside the rooms. If she wanted to be with others all she had to do was leave her room. There were activities, TV, puzzles, and friendly people right outside her door. She has said if she needs rehab again she would definitely like to go back to GVS.

The Pavilion staff is very warm and caring to both my sister (the resident) and me. They have adopted her as their Aunt and they indeed treat her like family.
They serve wonderful meals and they provide a good variety of foods.
The facility entryway is beautiful and welcoming and they keep the rest of the building fresh with tasteful decor.

Greenwood Village has been amazing for my senior friends. Helping them find a place that was appropriate for both of them, who have different needs, Greenwood Village was the place!
I have seen the independent living and visited with current residence who love living there. I have seen rehab that has the most kind and caring staff. I have seen assisted living that also has the most kind and caring staff. My friends love the food, and feel well cared for.
If I were looking for myself or anyone else, I wouldn’t look any further than Greenwood Village.

My in-laws moved into a cottage home at GVS 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 Pavilion and received very good care. After her death, my father-in-law moved to the apartments. What makes GVS a 5-star community? 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 activities and committees in the GVS community and all it has given back to him in the 18 years he has lived there. We also appreciate how the staff responded and adapted so quickly to the pandemic and its challenges. We are thankful for their ongoing communication with families. We are fortunate to have GVS in Greenwood!

I moved into my apartment in the Arms in June, 2021 and I'm so glad I did. Everyone here -- staff and residents -- are so very friendly and helpful. I have yet to meet an unpleasant person here. And I have to say the food here is exceptional, for an "institution." There's never been a mealtime when I haven't been able to order something that was really good. If you are looking for a retirement community that is friendly and comfortable, where you'll feel safe and as independent as you want to be, GVS is the place.

After researching retirement communities all over central Indiana, we found Greenwood Village South and we’re glad we did. We signed up the same day we made our very first visit. The residents, employees and activities are just great! Our Activities Director has us going all over the area in our buses, to restaurants, ball games and the symphony. For fun, we play bingo, cards, pool, ping pong and have a well equipped wood working shop. Our advice would be to not to wait too long in order to enjoy all the aspects of GVS life while you’re still “young”. Well, at least, young at heart.

My Mother is pleased to have moved to Greenwood Village South four years ago. The facility is clean and well-maintained, and the staff is highly professional, friendly, and responsive to the needs of the residents. The food is great, and the dining staff is very accommodating. The GVS Cares staff are ready to step in when a resident would like help with things like laundry, turning a chore into a fun activity. My experience suggests that GVS is a first-class retirement community that has all bases covered.

My parents moved into GVS a few years ago. Its truly a great place. Full of wonderful people - residents and staff, alike. The facility is tremendous - well built, solid and well-maintained. The staff cares about the residents and they go the extra mile to make everyone happy. The most recent example, they made sure that my mom could "attend" a destination family wedding via Zoom. A staff member came in on her day off just to make sure my mom was all set up! I could cite many more examples. From our perspective, management did an excellent job dealing with Covid. They made a plan, worked it and communicated very well. Continued fingers crossed, of course, on that. Anyone in the Indianapolis area looking for a retirement community for themselves or a family member, should check out GVS.

My husband and I made the decision to move to Greenwood Village South in September 2014 when we were both 66 yrs old. We moved into our GVS cottage in February 2015. It is one of the best decisions we have made in our marriage of 50 years . We made the big move without a crisis or health problems. We made the decision joyfully, eager to be active members of the GVS community. We made the transition while we were "young enough" to be active and enjoy all that GVS has to offer.
We chose Greenwood Village South because it offers independent cottage living, independent apartment living, assisted living apartments, nursing care and memory care. Even though we live independently in a cottage, we can choose to dine in The Orchard dining room whenever we choose.
Greenwood Village South makes transportation available for residents who need drivers. My husband and I know that when one of us needs a higher level of care, that care will be provided right on our campus. Future decisions regarding health care are in place so that when we do face a crisis, we are ready.
My husband and I are chairmen of the GVS Employee Appreciation Committee. We and the other residents here greatly value our employees. Our employees quickly learn residents' names and help us with our needs. After 6 years of being residents at GVS, we can sincerely say that our employees are like extended family members. During COVID, our employees have worked beyond expectations, sacrificially, to ensure our safety and to communicate to our families.
We love the variety of GVS activities offered for the independent living residents which include yoga, fitness classes, walking groups, tricycle/bicycle riding groups, fitness center, classes to help us use new technology devices, billiards, ping pong, bocce ball, an art groups, knitting and crochet group, reading club, "happy hour," -- just to mention some!
The grounds of our community are beautiful, and we enjoy walking and biking/triking around the campus. Seasonal decorating also makes our campus beautiful. 2020 was the first year for the cottages to have a luminary night. Many of us went riding or walking in the dark - with flashlights - and enjoyed the glow of the luminaries as well as holiday lights displayed on residents' homes.
We are so glad that we decided to move to Greenwood Village South in our mid-60s, rather than waiting longer. We know that we can look forward to "Lifetime Care" together.

I've been a resident in the cottages for over two years and love it. Not wanting to keep taking care of a house and doing all the lawn care, I moved in soon after retiring. My house is the perfect size with lots of storage space. I really love the sun porch. Activities offered include a wellness center and wonderful library. Several people here have taken up bicycle and tricycle riding. Seeing so many people riding, administration created a safe place on campus for storing bikes over the winter. They saw a "new need" and responded to it. When the pandemic arrived the administration responded immediately. They are well versed in what needs to be done and provided guidelines for us to live by to protect ourselves and the community. Being creative they came up with a little grocery for us to buy enough "basics" to avoid many trips to the large public grocery. Instead of holding the birthday gathering for everyone who has a birthday that month, they now offer to bring a good dinner to our home or apartment. They even come back for the dirty dishes! I can't thank the staff enough for helping me through this pandemic. I know I live in a community that cares about the residents and helps them stay safe. Moving here was the right decision for me.

My parents have lived in Greenwood Village South in independent living all the way to Hospice care for my Dad. My mother is still in skilled nursing and loves the food each day. I couldn’t have made it through this 2020 year without the loving, caring, excellent medical care that my parent’s have received while I had to not see them! This year has been hard but the staff have hugged my mother daily so she is not alone

The care my parents, and now mother, have received while living in both the independent homes and apartments and assisted living through the years has been exceptional! As family living around the country, we rest assured that our mother is well cared for and has always enjoyed her home at GVS. The staff are always communicative and compassionate. The facilities are very clean and activities varied. They are committed to excellence in every level of care! Having visited many retirement centers in our lifetime, GVS always rates at the very top!

GVS is an excellent retirement center. My mother has lived here for 6 years and has enjoyed every moment. Everyone is so accommodating and friendly. Through this covid period you could not ask for better care or service even though this has been stressful to both the residents and families.

Though I have not been in my mother's room for some time because of the pandemic I used to visit her there quite frequently. My mother very much likes her room as do I. I am impressed with the cleanliness of the facility and the professionalism of the staff who are always there to assist in any manner needed. I would, and have, strongly recommended Greenwood Village South to those who ask about my mother. I visit once a week now because of the pandemic and GVS makes the visit as pleasant and accommodating as possible. Keep up the good work.

I moved to Greenwood Village in July 2019 and have thoroughly enjoyed it from day one. The staff is amazing, and the workers go out of their way to take care of every need you have. Once you are in your apartment and settled the workers come and hang your pictures & do anything else you want.
I moved here because it gives me peace of mind knowing that I will have continous care up to the very end.
I recently joined a three wheel adult Trike group. All Trikes were decorated for a Fourth of July Parade ; we rode through the campus and many residents were waving Flags as we passed by.
This community allows one a stress free life-style.
My best advise is, don't wait; come while you have the health to enjoy the many amenities it has to offer.
My favorite saying is: IF NOT NOW, WHEN!

Many people already know that Greenwood Village South is a top level, lovely, dynamic community with a wonderful & caring staff. I would love to add that, during this season of Covid, our family has been both impressed and grateful for the level of care GVS has taken in keeping our parents safe from the virus - And also in their efforts to connect us as a family . I am an out of town family member and am so appreciative of how GVS took the time to get to know our particular situation, and their willingness to lay out a plan with me to insure both meaningful and safe visits! Thank you GVS!

I was on the Rehab Unit in the Pavilion last year and was treated like a queen! They were so kind and helpful. Staff were friendly and the Residents were engaged with the staff, each other, and therapy. It was like having a family there. Very homey environment! The night shift nurse's would even bring me a snack during their shift that I liked because they new me and they listened!
Furthermore, the food was...EXCELLENT! I can't remember anything in the 8 weeks while I was there that I didn't like! It reminded me of the way I cook! Only con is - make sure you order your food or they will give you enough for 3 people! I guess not really a con!!
One word....STELLAR!

My mother has been living at GVS Arms Independent living for 1-1/2 years and we are thrilled with all aspects of the facility. The quality of the people from management, to food services, to maintenance, to care-givers, to shuttle drivers are all top-notch individuals who care about their residents. It is truly a wonderful place to live; but that is only half the story. Unfortunately Mom recently fell and we were faced with needing a Rehab facility for her to recovery from surgery and found the other great aspect of GVS which is the Pavilion. The special care and physical therapy that she has received during the past 6 weeks has been exceptional. The physical building is one aspect when determining where to place your loved one, but more importantly it is the people inside that building which make up the heart and soul of the experience and care. Thank you GVS for providing such a wonderful staff of physical therapists, nurses and care givers.

I visited this facility to do a presentation for a local road project and the facility was very nice and the staff was polite and very helpful. We had 90 attendees at the presentation and all were very polite.

We visited Greenwood Village, and my parents liked that the people were very active. They have an active volunteer program. They liked the feel of the community, it was bright and cheerful, and the people that we saw were very nice, caring friendly, and accommodating. We saw a 1-bedroom, it was a nice size, and the kitchen was very nice, but I thought the living area was small. It's in a nice, location, suburban, and pleasant, and it sits on a nice property. It's easy to get to.

Greenwood was very nice, and it was like going into a little town. The apartments are nice, they have separate cottages, and they have various levels of care. The lady that helped us out was excellent. They had lots of activities, and they can take you in buses out to shop or anything you want to do. The dining area was very nice. It’s convenient for us to go there.

Greenwood Village South is a nice facility, but it's costly. They require a buy in. Overall, it's a nice place to be.
