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."

"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."

"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."

"I went to Courtyard Estates of Girard. I would be doing independent living. It ticked all the boxes. The independent portion is beyond suitable. It is a full apartment. The residents that I met are very nice. The staff is exceptional. I met the director, and she is great. Everything that they have given me is worth the money. I recommend this to everyone. It is a beautiful place, situated in a beautiful part of Illinois. It is a small community, and it is friendly and very welcoming. Even from the outside, you could just kind of guess as to the quality and the standards that they have for their facility. Just driving by, you would want to stop and take a look. This place is top-notch all the way. The staff is wonderful. It is a very caring, integrative, family-oriented staff. You can tell that they care about the residents. When I came in, they were making homemade ice cream, so it brought memories from childhood. That was very endearing to me. They had people there who were participating in that. The menu that they showed me was for four weeks. It is not for one week that's repeated. The staff members that I met were very helpful, very friendly, and very inviting. They even had a little sign that said, 'Welcome, Patti.' They had special little touches that made me feel very welcome. They gave me a little going-away gift, and they said that they have got a spot just for me. I saw some housekeeping people there; again, they were very friendly and very encouraging. They are people that you would incorporate into your family. They would be somebody you would all become friends with. It's that type of environment. They have staff that is there for long term. I like that part about that as well. They told me about the longevity of some of the staff members, and that's great. They have a little pond area, a gazebo, and activities that are planned for the residents. They can come and they can go. In the independent portion, if they have a car, they have garages available. They have everything there. The menu was extensive. I couldn't believe the choices that they have for that. It's great. You could tell that it is a very well-kept place. It doesn't look like it's worn. They keep it up. It's not something that you let run down or anything like that. This is a very nice gathering place. They have several areas for projects that residents are working on. Puzzles are a big thing there, and you can see that they have two or three different areas where they have puzzles that are in progress. They make some of them permanent, where they hang them as art pieces. So it's wonderful."

"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."
