Communities in Troy, IL

"We chose Asbury Village for my brother. It's beautiful. They're very friendly and very accommodating. They showed me the whole place yesterday, and it's just amazing. I was very impressed. It didn't have the funky or the nursing home-type smells. It was very clean. The people were very helpful. If I have questions, I can still call them and ask them. That's how nice they are. They're looking forward to seeing my brother. I just have high praise for them. When I first went there, they were having an event in this one room. I saw a lot of residents there and there was a person conducting the event. I could see they were quite happy. The residents I saw yesterday were saying hi to me. It was just a positive feeling there. The first time I went wasn't planned. I drove by with a friend to see where it's at, so when I did have that appointment for yesterday, I know where to go. I got to see how it is in its natural form. It wasn't like a staged appearance because I just showed up all of a sudden, and if they had anything to hide, it was not hidden because it was what it was and it was nice. I was impressed the first time I went there to check it out. I feel very safe putting my brother there."

"Garden Place Senior Living Millstadt looked older and so much more like a nursing home than the other places I've been to. They didn't seem to have as many activities as the other places we've seen. What they had was music, some entertainment, bingo, and movies. I also didn't think they had quite enough staff. Other than that, it's a very clean place. The dining room was very pleasant looking. It was a large room and it was open on both ends to the common rooms in the lobby and then the kitchen on another side. It had a lot of windows."

"Amy was excellent! As some of my family members are deciding on where to place my grandma, amy went above and beyond. She took time out of her day to visit my grandma at the nursing home just to chat with her and sit with her. The information and guidance she has given our family is nothing short of excellent. She has been providing examples of why the villas would be a great fit for my grandma in ways that the family has not thought of. If you have any questions or concerns about the villas, talk to amy so is wonderful and truly cares for each and every resident!!! Thank you amy for all you have done ! "

"We chose Cedar Trails Senior Living Community because they were very welcoming, very sweet, and very kind. It was clean. The people were very nice. They have a lot of activities. It is enough to keep my parents busy. Their apartments were very nice, very clean, and very spacious for two people. Their dining room was very nice."

"It is a nice place. They have a gym where a person comes in and does physical therapy with the residents. They also have somebody that comes in and does music. My brother lives in a 1-bedroom apartment. He has someone that comes in and makes his bed (if he wants it) and washes his clothes. They keep his apartment clean. The food is excellent. He likes it and eats all of it (and I've eaten there a couple of times, too.) There is a park down the street. They can walk there wherever they want. They also have a library, a game room, and a little room with comfortable chairs to just chat with family members."

"I've chosen here for my mom, and she has moved in there. It's been great. It's very clean. The people there are very nice, and they seemed to actually care about the residents there. I feel comfortable with my mother being there. They keep them occupied to a great deal. I appreciate that as far as just sitting in her room, they've got stuff for her to do every day."

"I chose Charter Senior Living of St. Louis Hills because it was the only option for someone in my father's financial circumstances, and they provide excellent care and attention to residents. They were able to offer us a home environment with daily engagement for someone that needed memory care, but still had the ability to walk and talk and be social. They have the right elements, and the staff is outstanding. Everybody knows us by name, and everybody asks about how they can make dad's life better. They take very good care of him. The meals are what you would expect to serve someone in your home, not processed meat and canned vegetables. He refers himself as a member of the Charter family. He appreciates the environment that he's in. They play music, they sing songs, and they do games. My dad loves being busy and this is exciting for him to have this kind of engagement every day. Charter is the only one that recognizes him as an individual."

"I toured Promenade Senior Living. Terry did a good job. She was enthusiastic. The rooms were small. It looked good, and they got a good job keeping it clean. I looked at the dining area, and it looked nice."

"Garden Place Columbia was smaller and had less flexibility for the residents in what they wanted to do. We wanted to be able to go over there and visit my sister and then eat with her, which was fine there, but they had to have a couple of hours' notice before we could have a meal with her. Their rooms were also much smaller and fairly dark. There weren't a lot of outside windows or anything, but other than that the staff was wonderful and the residents seemed very happy. I wouldn't have had any hesitation to place my sister there. The facilities were very clean and the layout was easy for someone to navigate."

"We looked at Autumn View Gardens, it's in a very nice location and place, and there weren't any problems with it, but we're still looking. The atmosphere was good, very friendly, and clean. The staff was very friendly, informative, and invited us for lunch, so my father came back for lunch. The rooms were pretty nice, but my father didn't like the configuration of the bathroom, and thought they were too close to the entrance. He said the food was very good, it was hot, and he enjoyed it. They had quite a few activities, they had shopping, they provide transportation to the doctors, they had a library, reading, little games on the lower level, like board games, and they have a TV area, or a theater area. The only problem he had was the building was old, and it was in the process of renovation."

"My wife doesn't see very well and The Mary Culver Home is designed only for visually impaired women, and they've been in business for 150 years, so I like it. It's a small home. It only got 27 private rooms, so she gets a lot of one-on-one attention and they're very good. They are very attentive towards her and I would highly recommend anybody if their spouse is visually impaired, because that's the one requirement to get in. I like the fact that the patient to staff ratio was like 7 to 1 and the food's good. My wife seems to enjoy the food and they do activities with them all the time. So, they try to get them involved in various activities and I'm pleased. The rooms are small, but they're all private, and they have a private bathroom in them. It's plenty and big enough to get around. I think the home was built in 1966, I believe, so it is an older home, but it's well-maintained. They have a dining area and they kind of wait on them like it's a restaurant. They'll come up there and take their order, and whatever they want, they'll cook it for them. They have exercise classes. They do tours of different countries and stuff like that. They listen to those kinds of tapes and then discuss them. The other day when I was there, they were doing Martin Luther King's history and life. So, they do something like that all the time for them."

"The accommodations at The Glenwood Supportive Living of Greenville were wonderful. I like the idea that you can stay there for as long as you need to, whether you are paying out of pocket or if you can have Medicaid step in and then pay for it with Medicaid. We only met one staff member, but he was very nice. The facility was very clean and very homey. Their double bedrooms were really nice."

"Aspen Creek was a very good and smaller facility, which is what we were looking for. We put my mother on their waiting list. I would have moved her there if they had an opening. It is a home, basically, with a front door, a front patio, a family room, and a kitchen area. It is small, with only 14 residents and is very homey. They have everything, like laundry, three meals a day, and basic memory care."
