Lutheran Home Arlington Heights, IL

my mother received excellent care at rehab-then was transferred to nursing care-BIG difference--was there over week-end-no one came into see her-no nurses-no assistants sat her at a table all by herself-for what this place cost-there is no excuse for not making her welcome- or caring for her-think twice about bringing your loved to nursing care at Luther village!

My father went from Northwest Community Hospital into this facility for extended care. It was the worst decision we ever made. Terrible care and ultimately my dad died after going back into the hospital. My dad wasn't eating or drinking and the nursing staff did not seemed concerned. If I could even say any of the caregivers had actual nursing degrees. If you want your loved one to die a horrible death but them in here.

Can I give this less than 1 star my grandmother is a resident the care is awful the food is unedible during care meetings she is promised at least 2 showers a week She's lucky she gets one call light to use the restroom takes them 25 minutes to answer that's a very a long time for an elderly lady billing please they overcharge her medications have to be ordered from their company which is draining her finances

Lutheran Home for the Aged was very good. It was a very clean place. The location was very easy and very close. The people were nice. They treated my mother well, and they did what they needed to do -- help her rehabilitate to walk again. There are various types of rooms there depending on what the need is, but they are clean and all have individual TVs. It was a one person per room type of system, and they all had their own bathrooms. The grounds were very pretty. They just did some remodeling, and they are still working on it, but it’s awesome.

Lutheran Home was very beautiful and the people were professional and kind. The only downside about it was that he didn’t like that they were pretty strict with him having an alarm on his shirt because he wanted to get out more and be more independent, preventing him from walking around versus just sitting down or something. They were very helpful, so I didn’t have any issues with that. They kept him really active with physical and occupational therapy and took him down to the dining room when there were activities going on.

My father has been transfered between the hospital and the Lutheran Home several times over the past 6 months. He has received excellent care. The hospital staff has called the Lutheran Home to compliment them on the care provided as my father's health is quite complicated. While the new rehab facility is beautiful, it is the staff and the cares they provide that matter. Each and every member of his care team - the MD, the RN's, the aides, the Wound Care specialist, the therapists, the dietary aides - all provide caring and competent care.

The Lutheran Home (main buildings and retirement homes) are beautiful. Had always heard this was a wonderful place for loved ones. Very close to home for our family to have our Dad near by. He had to be admitted as an (after care) patient from a hospital stay. The staff was not overly friendly, the food was gross, and the care wasn't to great either. Our family, (my Dad included), were shocked. My Dad was in the beginning stages of Alzheimer's, not in a wheel chair either. Most of the patients were pushed in front of the nurses station and a tv or video playing in front of them. Many of them had there heads laying down on the table where they were seated. My Dad never ate in the eating area with the rest, because it was so creepy. While visiting, someone (many) patients would by yelling "help me". It was a little like one flew over the Cuckoos nest. My Dad would look down the hall and say "look at all those dead people". He did not stay long, and I have heard they were making changes (I hope).

They treat my loved one with care and respect. She is well cared for, and she is happy. The facility is very clean, the staff are wonderful. The overall facility is very nice. I wish that there was a place for family's to dine and/or visit with other residents and their family on the unit.
