Assisted Living Communities in Bloomington, IL

"I went to Luther Oaks. It's a lovely, premium-type place that was just too expensive for us. We saw the room and saw where they ate and so forth, and it was beautiful. They do have a workout area for exercise. They have outdoor park areas. It's very open, very clean, extremely clean. The staff was very pleasant."

"I toured Bloomington Fox Creek Villas and Reflections. It was very impressive on how they have it designed to look like a little town. The people there feel like they're walking through a little town, and they are not stuck inside somewhere. So that was kind of cool. The staff seemed very inviting. They expressed to me how the people in their community would welcome new people with open arms and how they would help them feel part of the community. The hallways were a little dark with the lighting, but other than that, it was very impressive. The rooms were clean and very big. The dining room was very clean and very nice, the way they had it set up. They have a movie theater and all the different activity rooms."

"We are moving into Evergreen Village this Saturday. The people who we have dealt with have been extremely nice, helpful, and very knowledgeable. They were able to answer every question that we had. I would definitely recommend them. Evergreen Village had a dining room, a classroom, a place where they had a couple of pieces of exercise equipments, a theater room, and a private dining room. Depending upon what you want, they'll do your laundry for you and clean your apartment. They had a library and a sitting rooms where they had a TV, a fireplace in some, and nice furniture. We have eaten with them a couple of times, and the food has been very good. The place was easy to get around in, and the hallways were wide."

"Everything has been excellent at Bloomington Towanda Barnes Villas and Reflections. My mother-in-law's room is very clean. It has exceeded our expectations. They come in, clean weekly, and do what they say they're going to do. She's very happy there. They have bingo, dice, they watch movies, do exercises, and a variety of different things. I've had a couple of meals there and they've been very good. She has spoken very highly of it."

"The people in Meadows Mennonite is a one great team. I am back on my feet now. I cannot thank you all enough! "

"I was given a tour of these facilities by Mr. Rossi, the COO of the facility. He gave us a tour of the nursing home, the assisted living facilities, the hospital, and the wellness center. The whole facility felt like an oasis, as it was very modern in the middle of rural Illinois. We met several of the staff, who were all very friendly. Mr. Rossi explained that their nursing home and assisted living facilities aim to take care of aging people who are comfortable in a rural setting.The town of Hopedale was small, but the Hopedale Medical Complex was large. Despite this, the atmosphere was very inviting. Even the modern spaces, like the new wellness center, felt inviting and welcoming like the town of Hopedale itself.I was impressed by Mr. Rossi and his staff. They seem very committed for providing quality service and care to the people of Hopedale and the surrounding communities. "

"We visited Villas of Holly Brook of Morton. It was a very nice, clean place. They had a lot of convenient amenities that were accessible to the residents just about any time of the day and different programs and activities that the residents can participate in, like playing cards and working on a big puzzle together. They had entertainment that comes in from time to time an shuttle transportation if you need to go to your doctor or to the grocery store. It was very nice. The only drawback was that it is an assisted living home. If you become ill and you need extra care, you would have to go some place else to get proper nursing care since they don't have nursing service. They did not have a swimming pool, but they had a very nice library and a little place where you can get soft drinks and snacks if you want them between meals."

"My friend's mom lives in Washington Villas of Hollybrook. Their staff seems very nice and very helpful, but I know she complains that they seem to have a fairly high turnover, like they have a lot of different staff. Her mom is not real happy about that, because as soon as she gets into a relationship with some staff members or learns their names, they leave. Then they asked the residents, "Get to know somebody else." Other than that, it seems to be a very nice place, and the staff seems very nice. The buildings are like little apartments. There's a little living room, and a little area for dining with a little dinette table. It's also got a small kitchenette, a refrigerator, sink, microwave, counter tops, a large bathroom, and a large bedroom with a nice big walk-in closet. One day, we went down to have cheeseburgers at their little diner, and it was very good."

"The staff has done a superb job dealing with the extra work caused by the pandemic. They have also done an excellent job with activities and keeping up the morale of the residents during these unprecedented times. When I have dropped off items for my loved one, the staff has been very prompt in coming out to get them and promptly delivering the items. The staff is always very pleasant and courteous when I call them. The director has done an excellent job keeping family members informed via Email on a regular basis. The work they did in videotaping the residents for both Thanksgiving and Christmas and sending them to family members are treasured items for families for years to come. "

"Snyder Village was OK. The lady that took us around was nice. Everybody was nice. The staff was very nice. There were a lot of young people there learning like CNAs. There were no activities going on at that time. It was clean. The rooms were nice enough, but I wasn't really crazy about the facility. They had an exercise room, a library, and a dining room. The entrance wasn't really impressive."
