"I'm at The Oaks at Bartlett. The rooms and the layout are excellent. They are spacious. It has a large bedroom and a comfortable front room. The kitchenette is perfectly laid out for ease of use. The amenities are very comfortable and easy to access from your living quarters and they are top grade. The food is a five-star restaurant quality. The staff is very friendly, accommodating, informative, and a pleasure to work with."

"I loved StoryPoint Naperville, but my in-laws were not interested. I would have given them a five on everything. I didn't have food. I had hot cocoa there, but I thought they were excellent. The facility itself was very upscale. They had a shuttle that ran regularly that would take you anywhere in a ten-mile radius and with their location, that would be anywhere in the Naperville area, basically. I was impressed that of all the places we went to, this was the easiest to get out and about and around to whatever doctor's visits you needed or anything you wanted or any shopping that you wanted to do. My dad is worried about losing his driver's license and they had the best shuttle. It was a very upscale place and they didn't insist on a crazy entrance fee. If you need to move, they also have assisted living and skilled care onsite. If you would ever need to leave, that gave you some flexibility that the others didn't have. I thought it was an excellent facility and very nicely done. It had excellent staff. I couldn't say enough about it. It was clean and well-organized. I liked it a lot. I liked it because you could get out and about where the others sort of tried to provide everything right there onsite. We looked at independent living. I think one of the downsides there was they didn't have a two-bedroom apartment available that we could see and my in-laws were very interested in a two-bedroom apartment, and they were afraid of it being a smaller thing."

"My dad moved into The Atrium at Oak Crest Residence. The people that work there have been really great. They're friendly. Whenever I had issues or things I needed to bring up, they addressed it right away. So, it's also relaxed. And they're always making sure that my dad is getting involved with stuff. He's not just sitting in his room. So, it feels like a small community. It's not a huge facility, so it feels like everybody knows everybody and they know what's going on. And I can talk to whomever, so I think it's been good. The facility is clean. There's an older part and a newer part, and it's well taken care of. But it's not like fancy or anything. So, it's a very basic place, which is fine. It's what my dad needed. So, if you're looking for something fancier, this isn't the place, but it is a good basic facility. It has a comfortable and laid-back atmosphere."

"My mom has moved into HarborChase of Naperville. She seems very happy there. She loves the food, and she has participated in a few activities. She loves it. There's an outside patio area that is private and is off of her room, so she can go outside and sit outside and get fresh air. She enjoys being outside. Especially in the summer when it's warmer, she'll be able to spend a lot of time out there. That was a big selling point for them. My mom's room is great. It feels bigger than the last place that she was at. It has almost a full kitchen. It doesn't have an oven, but it has a microwave and a fridge. It looks like an actual kitchen. It's not just like a little galley kind of when you just walk in and it's to the side. It has a counter that comes out and lots of storage space. It's nice. Her room also has a big open living room area. She's in a one-bedroom, so she has her own bedroom, and the bathroom is off the bedroom. There are tons of storage space. There were a couple of things that we found like a light bulb needs to be replaced or one of the outlets didn't work, but we went to the front desk, and they put in work orders to have those repaired. I'm not sure if it has been fixed yet, but they have a good process for that. In terms of activities, I know my mom has played cards, and they played blackjack one night. She had an appointment to get her nails done. She mentioned that there are a few other activities. I saw a flier on the counter like a fall kind of outing thing that they were having. They will take them to the store and things like that. They have several things every day for them to participate in. I haven't seen their dining room area, but they also have like a little bistro area where if you don't want a full meal, you can just go there and get like a sandwich or something lighter. My mom hasn't fallen since she's been there, which is an accomplishment in and of itself. She seems happy and she likes the food. I would say it's greater than her expectation. I've only met a couple of the staff. A nurse came in to give her her medications and she asked if we wanted to switch to in-house primary care versus her outside primary care and things like that. She was very nice. She checked my mom's blood sugar and gave her her insulin. My mom had mentioned that there's another staff that, does anything she asks for, and the woman does it right away and finds out for her. It seems like the staff are very helpful and attentive. HarborChase of Naperville is a little bit more than what we were paying before, but the amenities seem to be nicer. "

"We were given many places to check into and we found Alden Courts of Waterford to be the best one out there. It is very clean, they're very caring and have been taking care of my mom great. They feed her well, she has lots of great meals, and she's just very well taken care of. It's a memory care and she's been there a little over 2 weeks now. They have activities and they also do church on Sundays which we are really happy about."

"Everybody at Sunrise of Naperville North was very nice, very helpful, very friendly, and very welcoming. They wanted to explain everything clearly. The room they showed me was a sample room. It looked well set up and well designed. It had a good, handicapped-accessible bathroom, which was what we need. It seemed wide enough for a wheelchair. It seemed very organized and they had community areas. It was very nicely done. It's kind of expensive though, but the setup was well thought out. They had an area around the building where people could go take a walk. It's nicely done with trees. They had a good variety of food on the menu. It looked well-balanced and it looked good."

"The Sheridan at Tyler Creek was very clean. The staff was very friendly. We were able to see just about every place that we would want (i.e., the dining and the movie theater). There wasn't much activity going on at the time. I believe the folks were all still in their rooms. It seemed very homey and very welcoming. We were impressed. We saw the assisted living apartment area, but it's very possible in the next six months or so that mom will be moving into the memory care; so we saw both. The staff was wonderful and very informative. I could tell that she enjoyed what she was doing. She shared with us that she had been working and volunteering in communities like this since she was 12 years old. It's pretty much been her life. I was very impressed by her, her knowledge, and her warmth. I also liked the way she spoke to my mom and ask questions. We were very comfortable with her. The rooms were very nice, much roomier than I had expected. We went into the one-bedroom apartment and the studio as well. I thought they were both quite adequate for a resident living there. I was very impressed. It was very clean and very homey. I could see setting my mom up in there."

"My husband is a resident and we were fortunate to transition from rehab to Belmont during Covid. While a stressful time for all they made residents care primary. Everyone we have encountered has been friendly, they know everyone’s name.! During these times I have been very pleased. Many facilities are short staffed these days….I have always felt appreciated and had questions and concerns addressed. It is clean and a nice atmosphere. Thank You for ALL you do!"

"My husband is staying here. It's a great place, it's newer, and it's homey. The people there are lovely, and the staff is lovely, too. Everybody's like a real family, and my husband's very happy there. I know they have exercises in the morning, and on Christmas, they had gift giving."

"Brighton Gardens of Wheaton was too expensive by the time they had everything up, like giving my sister her medicine and everything else. It was a very nice place, though. It was wonderful. The place was beautiful and newly remodeled. Everybody there was very nice. They showed us a one-bedroom apartment. It was nice because it had a little kitchenette, a walk-in shower, and a walk-in closet. It would have been great. They were also going to take my sister's cats, and some people even had their little dogs there. Three meals a day were included. The staff who gave the tour was very nice. She answered all the questions we had. The food was good. They had a large menu, and all different kinds of things on it."

"My mom moved into Sunrise of Naperville. I liked the people that were there. We liked the space and the sense of security. We liked its location because it was very close to me. We just had a good feeling about it when we went, talked to them, and saw the place. We also had recommendations from other people who had loved ones there. The staff members are super friendly, very communicative, helpful, and flexible. The food is very good. It's a very nice building. They keep it clean and well-maintained. They have an entire calendar of activities that they publish."

"We chose The Reserve at Oswego for Uncle because they're exclusively memory care. Every place else was mostly assisted living with some memory care and he needs memory care. Kelly was excellent. She was not pushy. She just wanted to hear what we needed, and she was very helpful. They concentrate on people with memory care. Their bathrooms don't even have a shower because they shower them in a special facility. They do their laundry at the same time. They have a very nice outside area, which is important. They have everything you could think of. He can get his haircut there. They have a nurse on call. They have everything that he would need."

"I like the layout most of all - my mom can walk around inside and outside. The activities are good but the care is the best. My mom is happy and taken care of here."
