Memory Care Communities in Lombard, IL

"I was happy when I choose this community for memory care for my dad. There layout and free flow between the community is great for a person experiencing memory impairment. I had a virtual tour of the community due to the fact that we couldn't go in, and the advisor was very pleasant and informative when giving us information. I was very much interested in programming for my dad and she went over and showed current programming being implemented and the residents seemed to be having fun. I have not tasted the food to comment on, but my day says it good and if he says it good I will take his word for it! The nurse has been in consistent communication with my brother and I about my dads medication and getting our approval before starting any new med that the doctor has prescribed. I know my dad will thrive here and we are happy we moved dad into Arden Courts of Glen Ellyn. "

"We met with a young lady at The Sheridan at Oak Brook. She toured us downstairs, where the main living area is. Then we went upstairs to see a one bedroom. From there, we went down the hall to another side, and saw a one bedroom with a den. We talked of fees, and then we went back downstairs and saw the other activity areas. They have a big room on the top floor, like a big conference room or party room, where you can have birthday parties or reunions. She showed us the dining area, the snack bar, and the bar where you can get a cocktail if you wish to. She showed us the rest of the main area. It was a good tour. We were there for maybe an hour, and it was great. We did a lot of walking and took the elevators. We had plenty of time. There was no hurry at all. We asked questions and she gave us a lot of answers. Then, she sent us home with a booklet. This place is lovely and nice. The staff was excellent. It looks beautiful, clean, and well cared for."

"Brighton Gardens of Wheaton looked fine. I didn't see any problems with the community. It was clean, homey, and everything was fine. The person who accommodated me during the tour was very helpful. I saw the residents going about their daily living and they looked fine."

"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."

"We liked everything about Belmont Village at Geneva Road. The initial visit was very friendly and informative. I would have to say, of all the places that we've visited, they gave us the most useful information and were the most helpful. We actually ended up choosing them for our mother, but my mother wasn't able to stay long because she had to go back to the hospital. She was only there for about a month. The staff was great. I have nothing bad to stay about them. The food was pretty good. There were a lot of activities going on, and it was very nice. I saw some people gardening, going on outings, doing arts and crafts. They just have a whole bunch of activities. I even wanted to move in myself. "

"We like it. The place was new, nice, and clean. They offered lots of things. It's out on a major street, but that's OK. They don't have much grounds though. The rooms were nice."

"Sunrise of Willowbrook was beautiful. If I could afford it, I would have taken it immediately. It was nice and I had a wonderful tour there with my two daughters. They showed us a one-bedroom and two-bedroom and the staff was excellent. The courtyard was also beautiful. It was like being in a park. They have buses to take them to baseball games and all kinds of things. Even their memory care was awesome. They each have their room. It was immaculate and they were treated with care. They let them out of their room to mingle with the other people during the day. So, it was a perfect place."

"I did an in-person tour of Clarendale of Addison's independent living. The lady who did the tour was very good and very thorough. I was very impressed with the facility. It was very nice and clean. Everybody I've seen in the independent living part seems to be very much in tune with everything and a very friendly group. All in all, I thought it was a very good experience."

"My sister moved into Lakeview Memory Care Community and it's working out just beautifully. I couldn't say enough nice things about it. So far, it's the most tremendous place I've been in. When I first went in, it just seemed like it would be perfect for her. And I haven't been disappointed at all. It's just perfect. They are tremendous people - the nurses that they have there and all the help. I have not had one unpleasant experience. They've all been just purely wonderful experiences with all the people there and the care that they give my sister. I haven't found a place better than this. We chose to be in a room with a partner because it's cheaper, but it has been tremendous. It has turned out just perfectly. She has a wonderful roommate. The rooms are so well-kept, and everything is so clean. Every day they're cleaning the room and do what's necessary. They shower her twice a week and they care for her other needs every day. We're not allowed into the room where they eat. I think it's a good idea because they want them to get to eat and talk with each other. If they have a family there, then they never get to communicate with the people who are there. So, I think their idea is very good to do that. She has enjoyed the activities and they have activities every single afternoon, which I think is remarkable. "

"Bridgeway of Bensenville has been a blessing for my father. At 91 years old he prides himself on living independently. At Bridgeway he is treated with respect by administration and caregivers alike. He considers the employees his friends. He can choose from a list of activities but is often content to Just bury himself in his library in his own sanctuary, a studio first corner room with a little patio. He can choose what he wants from the dining hall menu or where to go on the facility bus. Our family has seen no change in Dad’s overall appreciation of Bridgeway & realize how blessed we ALL feel about this caring place. Food at Bridgeway is good tho Dad is one who has always liked spicy and piping hot entrees. Hard to get spicy or piping hot in this or any senior facility we guess. Recent updates to the decor are beautiful and inviting. So if independent living is what you seek we would say put this facility on your list. "

"My family looked at several different facilities before choosing Harbor Chase. The main reason that we decided to move my mom here instead of the others was because of the feel we got when we visited. They have good ratio between care staff and residents and there are therapist in the wellness room that are helping my mom with her knee. The sales process was genuine and sincere and when we saw other residents during our tours, they shared with us that this was a great place. That meant alot. We chose a 2 bedroom apartment and it works out great because my mom can still have her crafting area and room for her ipad and printer. My mom has made new friends and enjoys when they all go out to eat at local restaurants. Every time i ask to talk to a nurse, I get called back right away and they have great followup communication. We are really happy we found Harbor Chase and recommend it to anyone who asks"

"Sunrise of Naperville was very nice and seemed like a home versus a nursing home. It was very homey. The staff was very nice and informative. It's centrally located downtown. The rooms are spacious, clean, and private."

"Mom is in Harvester Place. They're great. It's only memory care. I like the staff. The place is as clean as it could probably get. They know the people living there by name. I know they don't use as many agencies. When we need something done, we normally get it. They're pretty good about making sure that we're happy with what needs to be done and that it is done. They do not have a gym. They have like a seating area if you wanna watch something or read something. They have a ton of activities, which I really like. It's actually two wings, so it's big enough. They know us by name, which is really important, but we are also there every day. They have speakers there, they have a communion if you need it, like a mass, they have people coming in to sing or dance with them, and they do outings, like to get ice cream or dinner. The food was really good. I'm not gonna say it's cheap because it isn't, but at the same time, I feel like no place is perfect because there are so many people that they have to watch, but I think they're close to that as we can see. The people there are really great."

"I loved Sunrise of Bloomingdale. It was my first choice. The rooms were clean and tidy and looked new and homey. We were there for snack time, and the food was fine. The staff was very friendly, sympathetic, and knowledgeable. They knew their industry very well. The price was good and comparable. The location was very convenient. "
