Assisted Living Communities in Chatham, IL

"My mom was in River Birch Living for a while. It was in a beautiful location. It was a very warm and homey environment. It was very clean. The staff was very friendly and very helpful from what I saw. My mom didn't necessarily feel the same way. I thought the care was good, but she didn't feel the same way. At the time, there weren't many residents in there. She was doing much better than she is now. She wanted more activities than what there were. They did bingo, and there were little games that they play. My siblings and I thought the food looked absolutely amazing. They were chef-prepared meals, but she didn't like it. It was in a beautiful location, so the views were beautiful. The room was very nice and very clean. The place itself was well-maintained. They had outdoor areas and indoor areas. There was also a family dining area."

"My mom moved to Eastland Retirement Community. I have asked her about the food and she says it's all good. The facility seems very clean. Compared to everything else we looked at, there are maybe 1 or 2 other places that we went to that seemed like they were a little more updated than what this is, but it's not old-looking. It's still modern-looking. Instead of going with the more expensive finishes, like laminates, they use carpet. So it's just a different approach. There's nothing wrong with it at all. The people have been nice. They do activities. My mom has mentioned that she's been involved in a few of them, had a good time, and enjoyed herself. The staff is very friendly, any questions I had, they answered. If there was anything that I thought needed to be taken care of, they addressed it and either got it taken care of or helped us out. They've done what they need to get things right. She eats three meals a day and she gets what she needs. So at this point, the value is really good."

"We went to Villas Of Holly Brook & Reflections Springfield. We went through the assisted living section, and then we went on into the memory care section. The best about them is the care the residents receive, the brightness, and the apartments are big. Each person gets their own kitchenette, living room, bedroom, and large bathroom. They had exercises and different classes that kept them occupied during the day for memory, and their cafeteria was fantastic. I liked the friendliness of all the workers, anybody we met in the hallway or the people that took us on tour, and people at the desk. Everyone we met was very cooperative, very helpful, and very polite. The layout was very good. It's all on one floor. Some of the apartments looked to the outside and then they had the indoor apartments there that faced the center court where they had gardens and patio furniture and places that they could go out into that were secured for them. They had activity rooms, a movie theater, billiards in a recreational room, and an onsite beauty shop or barber shop. They kept them preoccupied pretty much all day long if they chose to do that. They offered lunch, but we already had lunch, so we just tried the milkshake. We definitely would choose that one over the other two that we had visited. The staff were all definitely top. It's very clean, very bright, and basically, one whole section was brand new in the assisted living. The memory care was only four years old, so everything was nice, new, and bright compared to the other two that we've been to."

"My husband is living at Centennial Pointe. It's small and the nurses are very caring, helpful, and friendly. The staff are very attentive to the residents. They're very caring and compassionate. I think they do have activities but he doesn't participate."

"Timberlake Supportive Living was excellent. You walk in and they have a big two story entryway -- all very open -- a large area where people can sit and talk, a large dining room, and lots of activities posted. They had signs for their menus for the meals, and everything was very clean. It was updated, very serene, and had a nice walking path around it so the residents could get out and walk around outside. The rooms were very nice, and I was surprised at how big it was. They had different buildings, and the one that we toured was the assisted living which is all in one big building, maybe three stories high, and has elevators to get to all the rooms. They have a nurse on duty there. In the other buildings, they had the independent living apartments. It had good security, and the grounds were big enough. Nobody can just jump out from behind the bush and grab you. So I thought it was very nice, and I would like to live there. "

"Cedarhurst of Springfield was gorgeous and had everything you needed. They took me into some of the resident's rooms, showed me the layout, and they did a great job. The rooms were very spacious, very clean, and very organized. The dining area was also very nice. They even had a big fireplace. They showed me the outside gardens, the rec room, the Jacuzzi tubs that they could attend or make appointments for, craft rooms, and other areas. It's a beautiful place. The staff was very well organized, very accommodating, and very courteous. It was a very nice facility and you get what you pay for, but the price was just too high for my mom's budget."

"I am a resident of Illinois Presbyterian Home. I just like the staff and the way they care for the people who need care. We have very good meals. They cook and the independent people have to go to the other building to eat. If you don't want to go outside and eat, you wouldn't like independent living. But I think the nursing staff does a good job of taking care of the people that live there. They have a library, an activity director, and she does lots of things with the ones that live in that building. We have exercises in both buildings. I lived in two other communities, and Illinois Presbyterian Home was more my type, and the cost was not as high as where I moved from."

"Wanted to share that my grandma had a wonderful experience while staying at Lewis Memorial. We felt that the staff always treated her with dignity and respect. Her room was spacious and clean. Our entire family appreciated the care that was provided at Lewis Memorial and would recommend this facility to others."

"My dad is at Springfield Supportive Living. It's very nice, it's open and airy, and the walls are painted in bright colors. The staff is really friendly and helpful. He has his own apartment, with a sink, refrigerator, bathroom, and a bed. He also has a nice balcony to sit on. They provided all the furniture for him. They come in and give his medicine at night, and they make sure he takes it. They have birds, a fish tank, shuffle boards, and all kinds of activities going on all the time. They have a nice sitting area outside, like a patio, and they have vegetables that they're growing that the residents can water and take care of."

"The Courtyard Estates of Girard was very nice and clean. The people there were very nice. It was a very positive experience. The rooms were very nice and very comfortable. The dining area was very clean and looked very adequate for the facility. The staff member who gave the tour was very helpful. She explained everything very well and was very pleasant. They had a salon, an outdoor fishing pond, and reading facilities throughout the building."

"Hickory Estates of Taylorville looked like a really nice facility with good staff. My dad liked it a lot. He thought it looked good. We had a nice tour. The staff was extremely friendly, and the place was clean. We saw the dining room, and it looked nice. The meal plan looked good. It seemed like they had a lot of activities. They had a bulletin board of stuff that was going on. They had a very nice courtyard, where the residents could go out on a nice day."

"I loved my time as a resident there. I always felt safe, loved and cared for. The food is delicious and management seems to really care, as does the staff. They take pride in their facility and it shows."
