My family member just moved to Story Point. I can’t even explain the welcoming and warm feeling the staff has given us at every level. The culture starts with MeLisa, the Executive Director. She is fully engaged and the energy there is clearly a reflection of her compassionate concern for her residents. Next, I need to mention Amber, our intake representative. Her enthusiasm and sweet personality is contagious. She was so helpful when we were moving in, clearly going out of her way to make sure we were comfortable. Last, meet superhero, Vince. He works for Corso Care (the assistance side). I observed him with both staff and residents. He is so kind and wonderful. I am so impressed with this organization, I had to write a review! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Please note that this review is based solely on us visiting the facilities while shopping for extended care for a relative. Amber the point of contact for sales was very knowledgeable of the entire process a potential resident will need. She suggested things to think about when comparing other facilities as well as potential ways to keep costs down for veterans. StoryPoint is very clean, nicely landscaped, nicely decorated and maintained. It smelled clean. The residents which we spoke with seemed very happy there. The apartments we looked at were clean and kept up. Again, we have not made a decision to move our relative here. But, I would definitely consider looking at this facility should you need to seek long term assisted living for someone you love.

My husband and I were at a restaurant on Tuesday 4/28/26 and I assume it was the activities person who was there with 3 of the residents. I just so enjoyed watching their interactions. She was very engaging with all 3 of the gentlemen. It was wonderful to see. I retired from working in activities and it is wonderful to see someone who genuinely enjoys being with the residents. Whoever you are I just wanted to say good job!! Story point is lucky to have you!

I toured this beautiful senior living community with my step‑mother, and we were both blown away. The moment we walked in, everything felt warm, clean, and truly cared for. The staff was incredible so kind, patient, and genuine. They made her feel seen and respected, and that meant everything to me. This place left such a comforting impression on us. It’s the kind of environment where you can feel the love and dedication the moment you step inside.

My mother and I live in Houston, but my grandmother lives in NW Indiana. We’ve spent the last 2 years going back and forth trying to help her maintain her independence at home. When she had a bad fall in March, we started looking into senior living and that’s when we met Emily. She was able to make this exhausting process easier than we expected. I thought I was going to have to take FMLA in order to manage all of this, but the staff at StoryPoint went so above and beyond, I was able to finally balance my own life while still helping my grandmother. She has lived at the community for 3 months now and we cannot believe how well she has adjusted! Melisa the Executive Director has been extremely helpful answering all of our questions and helping my grandmother get settled. The Chef even came up to her apartment the day she moved in and asked if he could make her favorite dish for dinner! If that does not say "above and beyond," I don't know what does. All in all, we are so happy with our experience. This facility had a huge impact in making an extremely difficult time in our lives as painless as possible. I urge anyone who is considering seeking senior living for themselves or a loved one to give them a call.
