Golden LivingCenter - Sycamore Village, found at 2905 W Sycamore St in Kokomo, IN, is a large senior living community that covers a lot of different care options, so you'll see things like independent living, assisted living, memory care, nursing care, home care, and even respite care, and it also offers care homes and skilled nursing, so people can move in at many stages of life and probably stay if their needs change, and you can take a tour of the place, meet staff and residents, and get a good look at all the spaces for yourself. The community feels pretty open and makes sure non-ambulatory residents can get around, since wheelchairs and high-acuity care needs get attention throughout. The staff helps with daily things like bathing and dressing, and there's always someone there for supervision and support, with call systems in every room and personalized care plans. The site takes Medicaid and Medicare, and offers things like laundry, housekeeping, move-in help, and family support, so things don't get too overwhelming, and they even have a concierge.
For social and daily living, they run movie nights, music programs, arts and crafts, and both on-site and off-site activity programs, plus devotional activities, so there's something for folks who like to stay busy, and residents themselves sometimes run activities too, which helps with feeling part of things. You'll see a fitness room, a spa, library, business room, arts room, gardens, movie theater, and walking paths outdoors, so people can pick quiet corners or join group fun, and they've got indoor and outdoor common areas for gatherings or just sitting in peace.
Rooms tend to have private bathrooms, wheelchair accessible showers, cable TV, air conditioning, kitchenettes, telephones, and Wi-Fi, and some come already furnished. The community covers meals with a restaurant-style arrangement, and meals are cooked by a professional chef, so people with special diets (like diabetes or food allergies) get what they need. Housekeeping and laundry are handled, and there's transportation for errands or outings, plus parking on site. They run both community and health support, with doctors, care staff, and even psychiatrists and psychoanalysts available as needed, and people who need incontinence care or memory support, including Alzheimer's care, can get reliable help at all times. Ancillary services like beauticians are there too, so it all goes toward making daily life run smoother, always with an eye on what each person really needs.
