Assisted Living Communities in Grayslake, IL

"Apartments are beautifully spaced. Food service is New York City quality! Want or need more- just ask for it. Cleanliness is first-rate. ALL STAFF cannot be better and always very caring and friendly. Enhanced Care is beyond fabulous."

"The apartment is beautifully appointed and ready to move in. Everyone that mom has encountered has been friendly and caring and that includes staff and residents. They go out of their way to make sure she feels seen and taken care of. She enjoys the dining room because she has very nice meals and gets to meet new people every time she goes. Change is difficult, especially as you get older, but the staff has made mom's transition smooth."

"My mother has been at Victory Center for 6 months and I can't say enough good things about them. The atmosphere is very welcoming and the staff is caring and compassionate. My mother has lived with me for over 30 years and, as a working professional, I have a great deal of comfort knowing that she is in a safe environment. She likes the residents and the food and tells me that she is very comfortable."

"I toured The Cottages of Fox Lake Assisted Living & Memory Care. I liked it very much. It seemed very homey. The rooms were a little bit bigger, but they were unfurnished. He could bring his little refrigerator and TV. It had a sink and everything in the main room, which was very nice and clean. The bathroom was very clean. They accommodated showers, which is important. It seemed homey, and it was all on one level. They had a couple of different cottages. They all hooked up, although they had a memory unit. The memory one would be where my boyfriend would want to go. Allie showed me the place. She also has contacted me a couple of times afterwards to see if I'm still interested, and I've asked her a few more questions. Everything there was very nice, but it was just the price. They also said they would accommodate his diet since he has a special diet. He can only eat certain foods."

"Brookdale Vernon Hills is beautiful. It's an open floor plan, and it's got a swimming pool and a jungle right in the middle of everything. From what I've seen, the cleanliness is fine. They come in once a week and clean the house and wash your linens. The staff members I met were very friendly. The girl, Martha, knew everybody we met by name. She's very knowledgeable. They've got everything. I liked it."

"My dad moved to Sunrise of Buffalo Grove, and there's a strong feeling of community. Everyone seemed to care about the residents so much, and I was surprised to find out how well my dad was doing. He's put on some weight during those days. He's eating much better than he used to. He's more active, sleeping less, and doing very well there. The staff is excellent. They're communicative. My dad loves the food, and he's doing very well in this beautiful facility."

"My sister was living at Ciel Senior Living of Long Grove. It's very clean and very friendly. Their approach was excellent. Their food was sufficient, but it could use a variety. My sister's room was more than adequate. It's a nice size. She was in one with a bedroom, a front room, a kitchenette, and a bathroom. They did Scrabble and bingo, and they went out for lunch."

"The staff is the friendliest nicest group of people I have ever met. The apartments are gorgeous and the food is fantastic. Stress - free and maintenance free living that’s generally makes you happy. Sedgebrook has such a wonderful environment that I’m convinced that people live longer and happier lives than they would otherwise. Enjoy Sedgebrook when you are young enough to participate in all the activities. Don’t wait!"

"My mom is at Belmont Village Buffalo Grove. It's very close to me. I really like the memory care program that they have there. My mom has a nice-sized studio with a bed area, a sitting area, a little kitchenette, and a bathroom. Being in memory care, they all go down for their meals all together in the same area. And then they have structured activities in the mornings, and then in the afternoons again. Their food is good."

"I went to Lake Barrington Woods. The lady who met us was very informative and very helpful. She took us on a tour of the facilities. They were very nice, very clean and very modern. We went to one room, which was a two-bedroom and it was very nice. She showed us about eight different floor plans. It seemed like they had a tremendous amount of activities all day. They had a varied menu for the meals. They offer breakfast and dinner every day, seven days a week. They offered a choice of outside parking or inside heated parking. They have a library and a courtyard and a very extensive fitness center. It's very nice and very modern, and the apartment she showed us had a very large kitchen that's well equipped and had large closets. They had a washer and dryer per room. The staff was very helpful, very patient, and very willing to take time for us. The building was very big, and the halls were very long. We did not have any meals, but she gave us a menu for that day and it was very extensive and had lots of choices. All the utilities are included plus they have a deal where you get a button to wear if you need it, so that in case you have an emergency, you just press the button and help comes."

"We liked Grand Victorian of Crystal Lake, and they still keep in touch, which is kind of nice to know how they're doing. It's just that my dad does require some extra care. It's typically supposed to be one person assisting all the time, but he has at least two people assisting right now. I liked the size of the rooms. They're really nice. They made it feel more like an apartment than a room. Their dining room was very nice and well-kept. They had many servers. The food looked good. We did not eat it, but we were touring while they were eating, and it looked like it was very well maintained. Claudia did a great job with the tour and staying in touch. She's very kind, very caring, and took the time to show us everything we needed to see and answer all our questions."

"I like that Addolorata Villa feels like a family community. I like that the residents were out setting up some of the Christmas decorations and the chef stopped to talk to us and there was a guy who mans the gym area like he's there all day. It's just a nice feature. The staff was very friendly. It was clean. One of the drawbacks is that it's kind of spread out. The atmosphere was very pleasant. I only saw two-bedroom rooms and they looked comfortable."

"We toured Sunrise of Crystal Lake. I felt my mom wasn't advanced enough to be at Sunrise. It seemed to be for people who were a little more advanced in needing care. I thought the staff was very knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. The facility looked clean and nice."
