My Mom's living space is a nice size and has a big window overlooking the lovely courtyard. We often take walks around the courtyard or sit out under the umbrellas or gazebo. The facility is well kept inside and out, with a very homey feel. Staff members are kind and caring, always greeting each resident by name, as well as most of us regular visitors. They have been very responsive any time we have had questions or wanted to discuss care details. We have been very happy with our decision to trust our mom's care to the people at North Woods Village.

My dad's "apartment is roomy and always clean. He is always comfortable there and it is a very nice place for family and friends to visit. His "neighborhood" is also a very friendly and homey. Residents are always congregated in the shared living space area watching television together or just spending time together. The care staff is knowledgeable and very patient. I trust them to take care of my dad when I am not there.

The rooms have sufficient space for bedroom furniture and small seating area. There is some choice of room sizes according to availability. There is a window bringing in natural light. Every room has an attached full bathroom with handicapped accessibility. The meals are tasty, attractive and generous with a snack in the afternoon. Non-perishable snacks may also be kept in residents' rooms. The entire facility is kept very clean. My interactions with all levels of staff was positive. They care about families of residents in addition to caring for the residents. A facility is not the same as home but can become a resident's home away from home. My loved one was there for sixteen months. I am thankful we found North Woods Village.

Northwoods is a very caring, professional, memory care facility. The CNAS are wonderful, they know all the residence’s wants and needs, and they truly care about them. They receive nutritious meals that are delicious. I know when I leave there after visiting that my husband is in good hands. The professional team worked well together, always stratagizing on how they can improve their services and what can they do to continue to create an environment of respect for each resident.

Provider Response

We are so thankful for you, and your husband, to be part of the North Woods Village family.

I can't say enough good things about North Woods Village at Edison Lakes. Our Mother has lived here for a year and a half and she receives the same amazing care as she did during her first week. The staff are always kind and patient with her. I have experience with placing other family members into other memory care facilities and thought they did a great job until we found North Woods in Mishawaka. There is no comparison! Thank you for taking such awesome care of our Mother.

The rooms are great! Ashlea and her crew keep everything exceptionally clean! Ashley at the desk greets you with a big smile when you come in the door! Deejra and Cristy are the best at keeping everything running wonderfully! All of the staff take such good care of my mom. I feel confident even when I’m not here that they are taking great care of her! You don’t have to feel bad about asking for anything!

When we started looking for a memory care facility for my husband, our children and I visited every one. We all agreed that North Woods Village was the best. His room is cleaned frequently, and the meals are nutritious. I know he's safe and secure, and he's well cared for. Not only does the staff care for the residents, but also for their families with smiles, greetings, and hugs in times of stress. We made the right choice.

I cannot recommend North Woods Village highly enough for my father's memory care. The staff genuinely cares for each resident, providing compassionate and attentive support. The meals are nutritious and filling, tailored to meet individual dietary needs, and the rooms are always spotless, creating a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. The facility itself is beautiful, featuring a lovely gazebo area where residents can enjoy the outdoors. Scheduled activities are engaging and varied, ensuring that everyone stays active and connected. The office staff go above and beyond, taking the time to get to know each resident and their families, fostering a true sense of community. Overall, North Woods Village has provided an exceptional environment for my father's care and well-being.

The staff is very friendly and patient with the residents, as well as visiting family. Ashley, Cristy, and Deejra always greet me with a smile and go out of their way to make me feel at home when I visit. The rooms and the whole facility are kept very clean. The inner courtyard is warm, inviting, safe, and readily accessible to residents that want to go outdoors when the weather permits. I recommend that anyone looking for memory care give North Woods Village a try.

North Woods Village is a beautiful facility, both inside and out. The resident rooms are spacious and the common areas are well furnished and enjoyable to sit in. The inner courtyard is landscaped with flowers, shrubs and trees, and offers several areas for residents to sit, including a gazebo. The housekeeping staff do an excellent job of keeping resident rooms and common areas clean. Well-balanced meals not only look good...they taste good! The staff are amazing...and one can tell that they are passionate about the residents as well as their families. I would definitely recommend North Woods to anyone looking for a memory care facility.

The building, inside and out, is very well maintained. The resident's rooms are cleaned on a regular basis as are common areas. The courtyard in beautiful, safe for residents and also very well maintained. The front office staff are very friendly but more important, they are responsive. I have found them to be very organized which I very much appreciate. Overall, the nursing/care staff are attentive and kind to the residents. I believe the care is genuine. My mom has lived elsewhere in assisted living, and we have visited nearly all other communities in this area, and I am very satisfied with our decision to have her living at Northwoods Village.

I visited this facility

I went to North Woods Village at Edison Lakes. The facility is beautiful. It's arranged in a circle, so I'm not sure if the residents can find their way around really well, but I suppose that there would be aides that would be able to steer them in the right direction. They have separate eating areas for each of the sections. There are three different sections, and residents eat at stagger times. The staff I met were very nice. Everybody was very friendly. I was impressed that they have a chapel, and they have a priest that comes in to say mass. The staff showed me one of the bigger rooms. It was big enough for a full-sized bed. They have a waiting list, too, so I couldn't get a room for right now.

This facility is so amazing and kind. They made my Grandma feel at home in the last months of her life. She had Parkinson’s disease and was declining quickly before we got her in there! Everyone was so helpful, and genuine! They really make you and your loved one feel like family! The rooms are nice and spacious, specifically set up for your loved one. The courtyard is where my grandma spent a lot of her time, with the beautiful flowers and fresh air! We came and visited her almost everyday! I appreciate how much care and respect this staff has for their tenants.

I like North Woods Village at Edison Lakes that is all memory care and that it doesn't have a nursing home connected with it. That was the thing I liked best. The inside seems very airy and spacious with high ceilings. It's modern and relatively new. The staff was very knowledgeable, very open about talking about their services, and very helpful. The reason I like it is that it's just memory care and they specialize in that.

The entire staff is very caring and attentive! They show such love, not only to my mom, but also to our family. They truly work hard to engage my mom and ensure she has the best quality of life she can. The nurses keep me posted on her progress, my concerns, and their observations. The facility itself is very clean and well maintained. The meals are high quality and delicious! They strive to keep my mom (and all the residents) engaged physically, intellectually and emotionally. The environment is amazingly calm and peaceful -considering the number of residents and variety of dementia stages. I always feel welcome and comfortable - North Woods is a very hospitable place! I highly recommend this facility!

I visited this facility

We visited the fairly new North Woods (North Woods Village at Edison Lakes) for a veterans seminar and the director took us through the place. It's a new community, so everything was very ship-shape. They had done some specific things for memory care, like the bathroom wall by the toilet was a different color than the other walls, so that someone with memory care issues would recognize the toilet because of it being different. I thought it was remarkable that they thought of that. The community rooms were conversational and small. They did not have a central dining room. Each pod had their own dining room to keep the group sizes small. It was all very much geared to memory care, as it should be.

We visited North Wood Village, and they were very helpful. We were trying to make a decision if we were going to move my father to a different facility. The staff was very friendly. The rooms were nice, but they didn’t feel that my father would probably be able to move in. We were afraid that maybe he needed too much help. The grounds seems very clean, quiet, and peaceful.

Provider Response

Thank you for your kind words about us. We are an assisted living memory care community but are able to provide care to almost all persons who come to us. Additionally, we support the provision of hospice services to our residents and would do so for potential residents. In only a very few cases the immediate needs of a person are beyond the scope of our ability to provide assistance. We hope your loved one has found an environment that can fully support their needs.

Words cannot begin to express our deep gratitude to each staff member for their participation in caring for our Mom and our family during her illness. We could never have taken such good care of her without each of the staff members at North Woods Village. We will be forever grateful! "It takes a Village" and they all were a team and cared for our mom all the way through to the end. Thank you North Woods Village!
