Memory Care Communities in Glenview, IL

"My dad has been there in memory care for almost 4 years. The staff has been wonderful dealing with him and being accommodating for my mom who visited everyday. When covid hit the facility rose to the challenge. Recently the facility started to allow visitors again and we were able to connect with dad before he passed away this week. Again, the staff was so accommodating and helpful as we spent time with my dad during his final days. We really appreciate everyone who helped with my dad over these 4 years. Thank you . "

"My wife will be moving into The Sheridan at Park Ridge. It was the best of all the places that we looked at. The thing that stood out to me was the staff. It didn't feel like a memory care unit at all when you walked in the door. It felt like a much higher-end facility, almost like a hotel. The apartments were the best we've seen. There was enough space to have more than just a bed and a dresser, and then there was a nice bathroom. They had access to several different programs and activities. They had a nice outdoor space and nice meeting rooms. They've got space for us to have parties with family members if we want."

"My dad is a resident of Celebrate Senior Living of Niles. The admissions staff was very responsive, and they have a very positive environment. Overall, the whole experience was great. The staff is extremely friendly, extremely responsive, and professional. The food has been very well-received, so the feedback that he's given has been good. They have a wide range of activities, which has been fantastic. Plus, everything's kind of laid out well. They are also very active in terms of extracurricular activities. So, it has been very positive. Just based on feedback from my dad, he's had a blast. They had a dance, and they did a bingo night. For what we receive, I find that it's very affordable, and I feel like there's a lot of value."

"Three Crown Park was quite nice, but it was also much more expensive. It was convenient. It had a very nice library. It was pleasant. The dining area was really nice and bright. They had lots of food choices. They had lots of activities. The residents liked Three Crown Park a lot. They had a pool and a craft room. They had a doctor on site. "

"My mother was at Norwood Crossing. She went in sort of in the lowest level of care, she was living pretty independently, and they did medication checks, and then as time went on she became very ill and she unfortunately was admitted into their hospice program and passed away. Nevertheless, I cannot say enough good things about them, they were just unbelievably fabulous through every phase of my mother's time there. They're really loving, fabulous people, and I would not hesitate to recommend people look at that facility. Everybody from the cleaning people to the medical staff, the physical therapists, they were fantastic, and I'm in heathcare, so I'm a hard sell, so they were really good. My mother always had issues with the food, so she did not like the food there, and sadly she complained about it. Early on my mother had her own little apartment, which was really nice because she got to have her own furniture and even her cat. They also had a wing of nursing beds that she stayed in when she was in hospice, and that was fine. They had a whole range of activities both inside as well as outside, and they had transportation, too. For the price point it was also great."

"I'm moving into Amazing Grace Senior Living. I like it. It's close to home. I'm giving it a 5 because of the care they show there. It's new. The people are happy, too. The staff member who assisted me was Susan, and she was good. I tried their food, and it was good. I was hungry, and I missed lunch, so they gave me a sandwich. It was a tasty sandwich, better than anything I got at the other place. The rooms were adequate. At the other place, you get a two-room suite, but at Amazing Grace, it is a fairly small room, but it has a private bath and a nice window."

"It was fine, and a lovely experience. The staff was lovely, informative, and helpful. The rooms were fine, adequate, clean, and well laid out, however, it was a bit far away. It's welcoming, small, and it had a nice garden. They have a bus, and they try to have activities for the residents. The dining room looked like a restaurant."

"I have chosen Sunrise of Highland Park. They have two-room suites. There are two bedrooms and one bathroom with an adjoining small common area. It's an attractive facility. They have very helpful staff. It's a suburban environment."

"It was clean and the people there were a lot active. The rooms looked pretty good. They had a nice setup for the dining room. It didn't have a full wall. It only had a half wall so residents could see you and you could see the residents. The main desk was right as you walked in, so that was convenient, and we didn't have to look for it. The staff was very informative and very professional. She followed up with me, which was nice. She was very bubbly and very happy. We were informed of the activities, how they presented the meals, that they had alternative meals, and we were shown a room. They had a barbershop and a library too."

"My mom was a resident of Lincolnwood Place. There were a lot of nurses there, and there was 24-hour care. For her level, she was so ill. She needs a lot of medical care. The food was really good. There was a doctor on staff, there was a nurse practitioner, there were nurses, and lots of caregivers. The caregivers were great, and it's just a beautiful place. It was very clean. They prepare the food fresh every day. It was just good food because I sat with her, for lunch, for dinner and it was good food. They also had different choices, which was nice. They have rooms and then they have the nurse's station, and then they have like, a little area where you can visit. Also, they have a beautiful garden where you can stay outside and get fresh air and sunshine. They had activities every day. They had board games, they had a lot of music, and they had musicians coming in. In the other section, I saw people coming and going on their own, but my mom needed a lot of care. The nice thing is that if you live there, they have this transportation bus. They would take you from town, like shopping to the mall. It's not cheap though. It's pretty pricey, but compared to a lot of senior facilities I went to, some were so depressing. They were dark and gloomy, and very depressing, but this one, it's bright and cheerful and it's a newer facility."

"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."

"The Moorings of Arlington Heights has a rehab center there, and that's where my husband was transferred from the hospital. He was there for five weeks and received very good care. The nurse practitioner there was excellent. She was great. She was very knowledgeable and worked with my husband to make sure that his meds were correct and taken at a particular time when he needed them. The certified nurse assistants were also great. Most of them were very well trained and knew what my husband needed help with. It was excellent. No complaints from them. The building was very pleasant and very nice. They have a bird sanctuary in the lobby that you can watch. It's a huge structure and very interesting to watch. Everybody was very friendly. When you walk in, you have to sign in, of course, but then that's for safety. They gave you a badge to wear. The physical therapy and occupational therapy area was excellent. It's very bright, and there's plenty of room to move around. It was a very pleasant place. My husband said that the food wasn't highly seasoned, but then you are making food for a big amount of people. He had several meals that he enjoyed. It's a varied menu. They come every day and ask you what you want for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And if you don't want any of the actual choices for that day, they offer sandwiches, burgers or hotdogs, soups or salads. I would recommend The Moorings of Arlington Heights. I met a lot of wonderful caregivers, nurses, and their assistants, and all were very accommodating and concerned about each of their patients. It was great."

"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!"

"I highly recommend Waverly Inn Memory Care Community. Mom moved in there. It was excellent. It was clean, the staff was fantastic, very personable, and they treated you like family. The facility had a lot of options, from private rooms to rooms with shared bathrooms. They have activities in the morning and afternoon, throughout the day. Every day there are things to do based on the ability level of the people who are there. It's not the cheapest place around, but you got what you paid for. I told them to take a look at it because it's not a chain like they have multiple locations, but it's not like a big box. It's more of a personalized feel to it."
