My Dad was here for rehab for a short time and had a good experience.<br>He absolutely loved the breakfast, the eggs were cooked to perfection. I had to call later and ask how they prepared them to make them like that for him. Haha.<br>My Mom stayed with him and staff was super nice to both of my parents.<br>Therapy was two hours a day, Dad worked really hard and was able to go home within about a week.<br>He had his hair cut while he was as there, the barber did a great job.

My husband spent a couple of weeks in 2023 at Bell Trace for rehab after lung surgery.<br>I have only good comments about the care he received. Every member of their staff made us feel completely at home from the moment we walked into the reception area.<br>He received excellent care, from rehab to nursing to dietary needs.<br>Each and every staff member came in with a positive attitude, giving the impression that they love what they do.<br>Whether they were delivering meals, giving him his meds, or helping him bathe, each staff member treated my husband with total respect.<br>We enjoyed having lunch in the Bistro, where we could visit with other patients while we enjoyed a delicious meal.<br>We are grateful to the nurse at IU medical center in Indy for recommending Bell Trace to us.<br>Thank You!<br>Shirolet Mann

My mom has lived at Bell Trace for a few years now and she loves it! She lived independently before this and of course was apprehensive about moving in but she very much still lives independently but with access to so much more! There are a ton of social activities, outings, they have access to transportation to go shopping and the staff is lovely. I especially love the dining staff! They genuinely get to know the residents and treat them with respect every time they interact with them. Recently, when my mom had a fall and needed additional help, it was comforting to know she could receive it right in her apartment. It was truly the best decision to move her there, it is such a caring and warm place.
