Loving Homes II

Loving Homes II has a quiet spot in a Merrillville, Indiana neighborhood with a couple of locations, like at 783 W 79th Ave and 730 W 79th Ave, and it belongs to a group of small board and care homes that also includes Faith Temple Group Home and Loving Homes, each with only a few residents living in house-like settings so people get daily help with things like meals, bathing, dressing, and making sure medicine's taken, and some need more help for memory care since folks with dementia require extra attention and safer spaces but that's available too. Each home feels fresh with modern updates - there's a brand new septic system, a new furnace, new water heater, all new windows, a new roof, and plenty of things re-done like the plumbing, electrical, and HVAC, and the inside has five bedrooms, three full baths (one on each floor), a finished basement, a large living room with a brick fireplace, a big master suite with its own remodeled bathroom and a walk-in closet, and the kitchen's updated with granite counters, soft-close cabinets, new appliances, and an eating nook. There's a spacious dining room too, and if you like being outside or need some sunshine, homes have landscaped wooded lots, plus a two-car garage with an opener, and both indoor and outdoor common areas. Seniors that stay here get meals made for them - even if you want vegetarian or kosher food - and the staff can help manage diabetic needs, incontinence, and care for folks who can't walk or need a lot of help, and there's also short-term respite for those who need to recover or give family a break. If you like faith-based things, both Christian services and devotionals are available, with activities either on-site or as outings, and there's transportation provided or you can park if you drive. Room features include bathtubs and wheelchair-accessible showers, and private rooms run about $3,200 a month, with assisted living services estimated at $3,329 a month, and for that, people can choose living options that fit how much help they want with chores but still get a sense of privacy and independence, so the whole setup tries to make it comfortable, simple, and close to what home life feels like, though with extra help whenever needed.
