“My senior living search began when I was no longer able to care for myself due to neuropathy and drop foot, which made it difficult to cook, clean, and manage daily tasks. My daughters had already looked into Calumet Trace, and after seeing how pretty it was, I knew it was the right choice for me! Since moving in, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed how kind and friendly the staff, residents, and families are. Everyone is helpful, and when you ask for something, it gets done. I love it here!”

“When I first walked into the lobby at Calumet Trace, I saw how beautiful it was, and immediately knew this was where I wanted to be. I even met another resident, Viola, that day, who told me I’d love it here, and we’ve been friends ever since. I was able to choose my own apartment on the third floor because it’s quieter, and I appreciated the support with things like medication while still maintaining my independence. I’m very happy here — I enjoy my time, stay active with my hobbies and Bible study, and truly feel at home.”

“After having suffered a stroke, I knew it was time to look for a community, as I couldn’t keep up with everything anymore. I looked at several places, and I liked Calumet Trace the best, by far! Everyone was super nice and helpful, and I even got to bring my dog, which helped me make new friends while reconnecting with old ones who are here as well. The community is clean, and both my daughter and I feel comfortable here — even my dog has made as many friends as I have. I enjoy playing bingo, having lunch and dinner with everyone, and there’s always something to do, from crafts to listening to good music.”

“Calumet Trace has been a blessing for our family. From our father’s previous stay to 2 years ago, we received an accommodating, warm welcome during our return this year. : ) The Staff at Calumet Trace have been very inviting, pleasant, and always greeting with sincere concern for residents and family. One of the many wonderful staff is Alfred Clifford. He was great in guiding us through the walk-through, necessary medical assessments/paperwork and always cared for our father’s well-being through the process. His calm, kind disposition was encouraging and reassuring as we were making the best decision for our father. Thank you, Alfred! There are many other amazing staff that will be included in this review and the details to follow… : ) We are so thankful for Calumet Trace. Our father’s return speaks greatly of the trust we have in the care and community. Our investment in Calumet Trace’s assisted living services, is returned to our father through the care, commitment and compassion of the Staff. We are so very thankful to call Calumet Trace our father’s home.”
