HEALTH CARE SINCE 1910
The Altenheim Community has a long tradition of providing older adults with lifestyle options that offer freedom, security, and opportunities to enjoy the many pleasures of life. The Altenheim was organized on April 12, 1910, by two local churches who purchased a twelve bedroom Victorian mansion in the heart of Indianapolis and modified it for community living in a home-like setting.
After several renovations and expansions of the original building, a thirty-two acre site was purchased on the south side of Indianapolis and dedicated in 1975. The new Altenheim is a short drive from downtown, St. Francis Hospital, the University of Indianapolis, and one of the city's largest shopping malls. The campus underwent an expansive renovation in 1996.
Responsive to the physical, social, emotional, and spiritual needs of the older adult, The Altenheim offers individuals the opportunity and freedom to achieve their highest level of independence. A full range of lifestyle options are available from retirement and Assisted Living apartments to Intermediate and Skilled nursing care. This continuum of care provides residents the opportunity to have their needs met if their health should change.
Much like the traditional American quilt, The Altenheim Community has provided home-like comfort to families for generations. A wide variety of apartment floor plans and living accommodations afford residents their privacy and a place to retreat. Planned social activities, transportation to community events, gathering places throughout, and a garden walk offer residents places and opportunities for renewal and recreation. As each square contributes to the pattern of the quilt, each resident brings a new dimension to the fabric of life at The Altenheim.
