Edgewood Downs gives seniors many different ways to live and get care, all in one place, with their own names for rooms, programs, and services, and the staff helps each person depending on what they need, whether that's independent living, assisted living, memory care, home care, or even hospice care if things get harder, and there are senior apartments, condos, and townhomes so folks can pick what fits their life best, and there's the Five Star Residences of Fort Wayne community, where they say they help people stay as independent as they can while still getting support for health and home, and you'll see unique touches, like rooms and programs that Edgewood Downs itself names, and there are trained aides who come help with non-medical needs and just keep company, for those who only need a hand at home, while others who move in can pick active independent living-where the chores like cooking and housework are handled and life stays social-or assisted living, where staff can help with things like bathing, dressing, and giving out medicine, and folks with Alzheimer's or any other dementia can get care inside safe spaces built to stop wandering and lessen confusion, and Edgewood Downs has special medical tools and equipment right on hand, and nurses can help out, plus there's transportation for doctor visits and a bunch of other trips, and the meals are made by chefs so they're nutritious and tasty, and for safety there are things like walk-in tubs, home security options, ID theft guides for seniors, and medical alert systems with big names like Bay Alarm Medical, Medical Guardian, and ADT Medical Alert, and they also offer medication dispensers so people don't forget their pills, which is easy to do, and the building has Wi-Fi and high-speed internet, so friends and family are never too far away, and there are pet-friendly options along with easy access for people who use walkers or wheelchairs, and the whole idea is to give seniors a good, easy place to live-whether that's getting a ride, a good meal, company, or hands-on help day or night.
Welcoming community with maintenance concerns
I toured Arbor Glen and liked the bright, hotel-like apartments, friendly/helpful staff, plentiful activities, weekly housekeeping and included meals/utilities - it felt safe and caring and gave me peace of mind. My concerns: food quality is inconsistent, maintenance and safety issues (old elevator, occasional unlocked doors, noisy dumpster) and frequent staff turnover, plus limited on-site medical/assisted-care and rising costs. Overall pleasant and welcoming, but ask about care limits, upkeep, and recent rent hikes before committing.
