Overall Review of Hoosier Village
caveat6 reviews mention this
Staffing feels inconsistent
Multiple residents describe understaffing that can leave care delayed or missed.
Several reviews raise concerns about not having enough staff, including calls for help going unanswered for long periods and difficulty during situations like flu quarantine. Others describe inconsistent supervision, with residents unsupervised at times. A few reviews also describe care that did not feel adequately coordinated in the health center. There are also contrasting positive experiences, but the staffing complaints are repeated enough to be a key point to weigh.
caveat3 reviews mention this
Memory care has access limits
Memory care is described as having rules that limit wheelchair use.
Reviews about memory care mention restrictions related to wheelchair access, which affected how families could take residents out. One family said they were told memory care residents could not use wheelchairs, even for walks. Another review also describes a breakdown after dementia progressed, with poor experiences in the health center setting tied to the memory-care transition.
caveat7 reviews mention this
Food quality is mixed
Food reviews range from very good to almost inedible.
Some residents and families describe the food as out of this world or very good quality, and at least one reviewer says the dining is “OK.” Other reviews are strongly negative, describing meals as horrible, almost inedible, or sub-par. One review also mentions inconsistencies with feeding at meal time, which adds to the uneven impressions.
common7 reviews mention this
Activities and campus keep busy
Residents frequently mention regular activities and plenty to do on campus.
Multiple reviews highlight that the community stays active, with scheduled activities like bingo, musical performances, and social hours. Families also describe outings, bus trips, and other programs that help residents get involved. Several reviewers point to amenities that support day-to-day engagement, including pools, fitness options, and spaces for groups and events.
caveat3 reviews mention this
Cost can feel very high
Reviews suggest pricing may be higher than some families expect.
One review describes a high-priced program with an investment and ongoing monthly dues, saying it was more “ritzy” than they needed. Another review characterizes the marketing approach around costly independent living options when exploring next steps for family members. A separate review says pricing was OK, but also notes the community did not offer much in discounts for future care.

The comprehensive care offered by Hoosier Village, including 24-hour supervision, ensures that residents are constantly monitored and supported in a safe environment, which significantly reduces the risk of wandering or accidents. Activities of daily living assistance promotes independence while addressing the unique challenges faced by individuals with dementia or Alzheimer's disease, allowing them to maintain dignity in their routines. Personalized assistance with bathing and dressing is crucial for enhancing comfort and self-esteem, as these tasks can become increasingly difficult for residents. The support provided during transfers helps prevent falls and injuries, contributing to overall physical safety. Meal preparation and service not only ensure proper nutrition tailored to individual dietary needs but also foster social engagement during communal dining experiences.
