  • Exclusive Interview Insights

    Our team personally reached out and conducted an insightful interview with this community on Jan. 31, 2024. Here's what we learned:

    Welcome to Wellbrook South Bend

    At Wellbrook South Bend, we believe in the power of community and the warmth of sharing meals. Our senior living community is designed to offer a welcoming environment where every resident feels at home.

    Types of Care Offered

    • Skilled Nursing: Both short-term and long-term skilled nursing care.
    • Assisted Living: Comprehensive assisted living services.
    • Secure Memory Care Unit: Specialized assisted living for residents with memory care needs.

    Availability and Waitlist

    We have a waitlist for our Medicaid beds due to limited availability. However, we strive to accommodate residents in our assisted living or skilled nursing units as needed, without a current waitlist for these services.

    Respite and Short-term Stays

    Wellbrook South Bend offers respite care for up to 30 days in both our assisted living and skilled nursing units, providing temporary relief for caregivers.

    Pet Policy

    Pets are welcome in our assisted living units. We understand the importance of pets to our residents and offer provisions for their stay, including a deposit and a monthly fee.

    Transportation Services

    Our community provides a wheelchair-accessible van or bus for outings and appointments. We organize outings twice a week and offer transportation to physician appointments three days a week.

    Our Staff

    Our dedicated team includes RNs, LPNs, QMAs, and CNAs, ensuring comprehensive care for our residents. We also have a medical director who oversees patient care, with physicians available daily.

    Safety Measures

    For the safety of our residents, we have a call light system in place. Residents can also use personal pendants for additional security.

    Communication with Families

    We keep families informed through a monthly newsletter, an activities calendar, and our presence on social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram. Our website also serves as a resource for information.

    Addressing Concerns

    Wellbrook South Bend has an open-door policy for complaints and concerns. Residents and their families can approach any staff member, department head, or the executive director to express their concerns.

    Our team, including Shawna at the front desk, is always ready to assist and provide the necessary information to ensure a comfortable and caring environment for our residents and their families.
