My mother has moved into Five Star Residences of Fort Wayne. She's completely independent. There are one to two-bedroom apartments, and they have very small yards in them. There are different cul de sacs around the apartment complexes. It's really like a duplex. Everything's on one floor. There are two houses to a building or two apartments to a building. She likes it. It's nice. The food is good, and you can eat in the main building. The main building houses the higher levels of care people. There's a dining room, there's a movie room, and there are activities scheduled. She doesn't participate in any of those, but she does sometimes carry the food back to her apartment. She likes the community. She likes the people. She feels that they do not do what they say they're going to do as far as maintenance, though. You have to wait a long time to get the maintenance that you want on your apartment. The nurses might be fantastic, but the administration is not so great. It's just average. There was one other in this area that was a nearby drive to me that had independent living, but mom wanted somewhere where she could have a bathtub. This was the only one that would let her have a bathtub.

Five Star Residences of Fort Wayne is an older community. I've never heard anything bad about it. I saw some of their independent living apartments, and they were very nice. Once someone moves out, they redecorate them and clean them all up. I asked them about their toilet stools. Are you going to change the stools? She said, "Well, we hadn't thought about it ." I said, I think that would be a good idea. I said I have an awful time getting up from one of those. I said, "Something higher. It doesn't have to have a raised seat. Something would be nice. You might want to think about that." She said, "Oh, we will." Their prices were very good. The upkeep is for the most top quality.

Five Star Residences of Fort Wayne independent living was very nice and I enjoyed staying there, but it's way too expensive for the average person. I just couldn't afford them. They have a group that meets once a month and they're the ones who choose the activities. We would get together maybe once or twice a month to go out for supper or lunch. They basically keep you fairly occupied. They took very good care of the place and the villas were very nice and kept up. The staff was very nice. They weren't stingy with their food portions though.

We visited Covington Commons. It was fine, the people were extremely friendly, but my mom is not ready yet. They have garden homes, there were duplexes, each one had a garage, with two units attached to either a 1- or a 2-bedroom. The price varied on how renovated it was, some units were renovated, and others were a little bit older. There weren’t any activities at that time, the independent living has activities on their own, but they can also participate in any of the assisted living activities as well. They have a lot of different activities, like the bus that they run on a regular basis to different places once a week. The advantage is you can walk over and get a meal if you want, and it's very social because everybody is around you. The staff as well as the residents were friendly. They have a library with computers for residents to use, a community room, a kitchen, and stuff that you can use, board games, and bingo, and they have a theater and a big screen TV. They have an onsite physical therapy, class, and they have church services.
