Independence Village of Carmel

Independence Village of Carmel sits in a three-story building and offers independent living, assisted living, and memory care for seniors, and the facility is part of the StoryPoint Group with a range of care levels so folks can get the help they need as their needs change, whether they're looking for support with daily activities, therapies for dementia or Alzheimer's, or a safe and comfortable setting with a sense of belonging. The community is pet-friendly and lets residents have their furry companions, whether they're in studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom apartments, all with modern features for comfort, and there are open-floor plans, kitchens or kitchenettes, dens, patios or balconies, and storage space, with temperature controls in each suite and a 24-hour emergency call system for safety. Apartments sit among landscaped walking paths and outdoor gardens, and there's a rooftop deck, greenhouses, and courtyards for gardening or just getting fresh air. Residents can use the heated swimming pool, fitness center, and spa for exercise or relaxing, or join fitness classes throughout the week. For food, you find on-site restaurants with chef-prepared meals, feedback-driven menus, and flexible meal plans-some meals use locally sourced ingredients and regional favorites, with three daily meals-and there's also a demonstration kitchen, bistro café, and a private dining room for special occasions. Activities and events fill the calendar, including movie nights in the on-site theater, games, theme parties, bridge, live entertainment, gardening, excursions, spiritual groups, and plenty of outings and day trips, plus there's a concierge service called "At Your ServiceSM" and shuttle service for grocery trips and appointments. The community also offers a beauty salon, barbershop, day spa, library, business and computer centers, game room, art and crafts area, and common areas with TVs, as well as free high-speed WiFi throughout. Skilled staff provide licensed care, including licensed nurses, support staff for companionship and daily living activities like bathing or dressing, medication help such as reminders and insulin management, and in-house physical, occupational, and speech therapy. Memory care staff receive special training and lead targeted programs for memory loss, while the secure memory care neighborhood helps those with Alzheimer's or dementia maintain dignity and routine. The environment has advanced security with controlled entry, handicap-accessible rooms, and a family portal for managing services, and they offer personalized care plans based on individual needs and regular assessments to adjust as those needs change. Housekeeping, linen services, transportation, and maintenance aim to help residents live with less worry, so they have time to enjoy community life and their hobbies, and because there are private rooms, companion suites, and multiple spacious floor plans, folks can really make it their own. The goal is simple: to provide a well-maintained, safe, and lively place where people aged 55 and older can shine, enjoy activities in their own time, and feel at home with caring support all around.
