Bloom Senior Living

Having been in the hospitality industry for many years, I must say the the menu planning, presentation and service were not up to par. Meals are something that these folks who live there permanently look forward to, but they kingda don't. The wate staff needs to be retrained. The chef need more large party training. The service staff for the most part are pleasant. However, their ability to serve a large dining room is limited by lack of training. The Bloom just took over this property, which was half filled. The facility is now almost fully rented and the larger dining crowd seems daunting to them. The whole dining room experience needs to be improved. The cleanliness in the public areas seems to be fine. The activity young lady is quite good and is open to new ideas.

The staff changes frequently. They are caring... But, the food is terrible! Enlivent corporation, the parent company will not authorize healthy options. They serve the same cheap unhealthy meals over & over again. The clients complain all the time & nothing changes.

I was not to thrilled with how the set up was at this property. I thought that everything was very small and compacted. The floor plan also was a little awkward, how they had the bedrooms, common areas, and dinning room was not impressive. It just was not the right fit for my mother.

Based on what we experienced at Willow Lake Place, I would not recommend going there if you need even the smallest bit of assistance in care. They do not provide proper care.

Too much like a nursing home with that smell. Only have assisted living and the apartments are very small.

My brother went to Willow Lake and they had just changed ownership and he felt that it would not be a good idea to move our mom there while there are so many changes going on.

I came to visit this community to possible move it. The staff was nice. The community was clean and maintained. The did have a variety of meals. They offer nice activities. I would suggest families to see this community and get information on is it is what they are looking for when it comes to a loved one.

Junky facility. Stacks of old pallets and garbage bags, rotten pots, old appliances (heat/air units, fridge, etc.), discarded items throw behind the storage units. All visible from patio homes on back wing. Calling card for rats, snakes, strays. Needs a good clean up. Pictures available to support this review.

A family member has lived here for a couple of years. They are short-staffed and now need staffing from other sources other than regular employees.

I would never recommend Willow Lake Place, it was a terrible experience and you cannot trust them.

The staff members were all really friendly, however the value for cost is not worth it. Our loved one went in for assisted living level of care, completely ambulatory and within about three months is now skilled nursing care which completely devastated our family, especially with the finances. The care services at Willow Lake Place were completely non existent, our loved one was left in bed for hours which caused huge bed sores, and they never kept up communication with our family regarding anything with our loved one.

I would want others to know that we did not have an experience with Bloom at Kokomo. The facility itself smelled terrible. They had a male nurse who was excellent, but once he left, it went downhill. They were just very unorganized and I would not recommend them.
