A hidden gem located in the Highlands. Non-profit facility where residents are at the heart of every decision. The small, quaint size allows for appreciable interpersonal relationships between the staff, residents and families. The care team are attentive to each resident's specific needs, the home is clean and the food is great with many options! The Altenheim is a great place to work with our elders and a great place to age in place.

We feel so lucky to have found this place! It was clear as soon as we walked in on day one that Altenheim was different from the other options in Louisville. All the staff seem to actually care about each resident and they are always doing little extra things that make a world of difference. The staff relates to each resident as a whole person who has preferences and opinions. You will never see the staff forcing or bullying a resident into anything— they always approach with respect and dignity. We have also been happy with the cleanliness at the facility. Whenever we come to visit my father, he is clean as is his room. They even go the extra mile to make sure the flowers in his room have enough water. Lastly, I can't vouch for this personally, but my father tells me the food is great!

The Altenheim is the best of the best in skilled nursing care! After enduring stays at two different nursing homes that were both for-profit and part of the big corporate chains in elder care, we found the Altenheim. So grateful we did! My siblings and I visit regularly, but finally have the peace of mind knowing that our mom is getting the quality care she deserves! The staff is amazing! They are experienced, professional, kind, friendly, have positive attitudes and are always willing to help. No place is perfect, but this place comes pretty close. Any issues or questions that arise are addressed/resolved quickly and with compassion and understanding. Thank you to the Altenheim for all you do, and for being the best kept secret in quality care for our elder community!

What a difference from where the hospital just dumped my father-in-law off on a Friday night. We were horrified. But Kelly at the Altenheim worked with me to get him transfered in less than a week. The staffing ratios are excellent and my father-in-law has been treated with dignity and respect from day one. We are so grateful! My fil is on hospice and was very sick when he got there. The great care and encouragement seemed to put him on a plateau. His quality of life is much improved.!

Nice facility, very sweet and wonderful residents. Very incompetent administration. This lady Angela who is a secretary there, was a total B and I'm censoring it. The lady who ran the place was keeping an eye on me for no reason and when she thought I was not doing my job she goes back and tell the people at the agency that I work for a bunch of lies. I was stressed out so I left. I don't want to go back and work for them at all.

They have The potential of being a great place but they have a prejudice rude maintenance man who has the person who runs the building in their pocket. I was picked on by him, even attempted to intimidate me by staring me down every time he came near me. When I finally stood up for myself with plenty of witnesses around he threatened me and told me he runs that building and I would never work there again. He was right. Even with witnesses saying what he did, how he rudly talked to me..... I was told to leave not even by the person that was supposed to tell me. They then told my agency they had a "bad feeling about me" so unprofessional. I'm a pregnant black woman who felt threatned and that's how I was treated. I'm Glad tho for my agency who had my back and stood on my side.

I am so thankful to the wonderful, caring staff at the Altenheim. My mother was at the Altenheim for two years before she died and my family could not have been more pleased with the wonderful care that she received.

I highly recommend The Altenheim to anyone looking for a safe, compassionate and caring place for themselves or a loved one to live. It has several care options to meet the needs of each individual, and a variety of wonderful amenities and activities. However, it's the staff that make it stand apart. They treat each resident with the utmost respect, dignity and professionalism. To them, it's more than just a job, it's a passion and a calling.

The Altenheim cared for my grandmother during her last year on earth. The facilities were up-to-date and always kept very clean. The staff was friendly, caring, and always attentive to her last need as well as our family's special requests...ALL the way from the director, down to the nurses, and even the custodians/laundry workers. The Altenhein will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you all!
