Assisted Living Communities in Bartlett, IL

"I visited Encore Village of Schaumburg. The staff was great. It was a pretty nice place. I had no problem. It was clean and convenient to get around. Everything was right there. You didn't have to walk them out to get here and there. The patio was clean and beautiful."

"The Sheridan at Tyler Creek was very clean. The staff was very friendly. We were able to see just about every place that we would want (i.e., the dining and the movie theater). There wasn't much activity going on at the time. I believe the folks were all still in their rooms. It seemed very homey and very welcoming. We were impressed. We saw the assisted living apartment area, but it's very possible in the next six months or so that mom will be moving into the memory care; so we saw both. The staff was wonderful and very informative. I could tell that she enjoyed what she was doing. She shared with us that she had been working and volunteering in communities like this since she was 12 years old. It's pretty much been her life. I was very impressed by her, her knowledge, and her warmth. I also liked the way she spoke to my mom and ask questions. We were very comfortable with her. The rooms were very nice, much roomier than I had expected. We went into the one-bedroom apartment and the studio as well. I thought they were both quite adequate for a resident living there. I was very impressed. It was very clean and very homey. I could see setting my mom up in there."

"I visited Alden Gardens of Bloomingdale's assisted living. They offer three meals a day, and the staff was very nice. It's a beautiful and clean facility."

"My husband is a resident and we were fortunate to transition from rehab to Belmont during Covid. While a stressful time for all they made residents care primary. Everyone we have encountered has been friendly, they know everyone’s name.! During these times I have been very pleased. Many facilities are short staffed these days….I have always felt appreciated and had questions and concerns addressed. It is clean and a nice atmosphere. Thank You for ALL you do!"

"I was very impressed with Sunrise of Schaumburg, but I think my sister would need more of a supported living arrangement because they said if she ran out of money, she would have to leave and I don't want to get into that situation. I was very impressed with the staff, from the janitor to the housekeeping to the director and the person that does the activities. Everybody seemed to love their job. Most of them have been there for a very long time. You got to have people that like their job, that want to be there, to get good care, so I was impressed with that. I was impressed with everything. It's on the small side, so that was fine. Another drawback is my sister's ability to do more things than most of the people that were there. Other than that, I loved everything about it. The people were very nice. The people that were staying there also were super nice and friendly. The tour was very thorough. The staff gave me the pricing. I got to see the dining room, which I thought was very nice. I didn't have too many questions other than what happens when they run out of money. The staff during the tour was phenomenal. The facility was a little on the older side. It's not like it was really bad. The carpet could be replaced on some of the floors. The rooms were small but adequate. They had refrigerators and sinks. You could have appliances that automatically shut off, like a coffeemaker that automatically shuts off after a certain amount of time. They don't mind you having those types of things. Other than that, they don't want you to have anything else in your room. There's a place where you can get coffee and snacks and stuff like that near the dining room."

"The Woodlands at Canterfield was beautiful. The apartments were fine, clean, nice, and brand new. We met with several people and they were all very nice and professional. They had a bunch of games going. It's brand new so there were not that many people there yet. We saw people in the lunchroom and it looked very nice. The dining area was beautiful. I didn't eat there. My brother and my mom ate there and they said the food was excellent. We met with several different people and overall everybody was great, but some were better than others."

"I visited Bickford of St. Charles. My daughter toured with me. The staff showed us around and spoke with us for an extended time. She wasn't in any hurry at all. She showed us the memory care. There were people doing games and keeping their mind going. I thought, " Wow. This is awesome." I visited the assisted living, and I was at the memory care, too. They were doing some kind of a game there to keep their memory going. The place was beautiful. They took us to a studio and a one-bedroom. They took us outside. They had a little garden there for the people, and they're growing tomatoes. They will use the tomatoes for their meals. This is just all so important to have a home-like atmosphere, and it definitely was. There was plenty of room for the person to entertain if they wanted to. There was plenty of rooms inside to sit at the table on the second floor, to play games, and to have visitors. The people were so nice. Everybody was so nice. They were really, really nice. However, they have a shorter term for respite care. The place was spotless, and their garden outside was beautiful."

"I did an in-person tour of Clarendale of Addison's independent living. The lady who did the tour was very good and very thorough. I was very impressed with the facility. It was very nice and clean. Everybody I've seen in the independent living part seems to be very much in tune with everything and a very friendly group. All in all, I thought it was a very good experience."

"My mother in law intends on going here after our visit there. The tour was very good, my mother in law liked it, and she went to visit it twice. They have a whole list of activities like sing-alongs, the rosary that my mother in law is interested in, and Bingo. They do have a hair salon on the premise, and you can sign up and go out on community visits and all sorts of things. The grounds are nice, there’s a nice garden with a little play area for children, a nice gathering area when you walk into the building, and a very nice dining room. "

"We chose Covenant Living at the Holmstad for my mother. She was familiar with it, and she had a friend living there. The rooms were generous in size, and the staff we met was very helpful and very nice. I liked the fact that they had a pool; my mom liked that too. They had concerts there, and they had the usual cards and activities. She will move in about four weeks from now."

"Brookdale Glen Ellyn was very nice, clean, and well-appointed. The dining facilities looked very nice. The pool and exercise facility were nicely appointed. The room that I was looking at was spacious enough for my needs. Tim, who gave me the tour, was very thorough in his explanation, so I was able to understand all the ins and outs of living there. There were lots of activities to be partaken in, both in the facility and outside the facility."

"We moved my mom in back in September of 2024 and we couldn’t be happier with the environment she’s in and care she receives. I wish we made the move earlier as her life has become so much more full as she exercises and socializes throughout the day. She literally thanks us routinely for finding such a nice place to live. Her unit is very nice and furnished with items that used to be in her home which gives her just enough familiarity. The staffing: activities director, front desk, cleaning, maintenance, dining room, care givers and nursing are all exceptional. When my mom has had medical procedures, nursing has coordinated with us to make sure they are on board with her additional care and needs. I could go on. Pleased at every level."

"We toured Monarch Landing. It was excellent. The food was excellent. It was very safe and resort-like. The staff was Incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. They have all levels of care there. I know they just won an award as best in Illinois for skilled care, so that was also a good thing."

"My mother will be moving into GreenFields of Geneva. We chose it mostly because of the location. It's very close to one of my other siblings. She'll be going to memory care. I like that there was a separate dining area like each area was separate. It looked like a smaller dining space for memory care and the unit itself was in a U-shape. They have nursing staff available 24 hours a day. The staff during the tour was great. She gave us a lot of information, was upfront, and has helped us through this process as we are starting the move. What they had to offer in terms of activities and the availability of physical therapy and speech therapy is five stars. We have to have a doctor prescribe that, but it's nice that it could be onsite."
