"I moved my mother into a place called Terra Vista of Oakbrook Terrace a couple of weeks ago. We are set. Everything is good. What I liked about them was that they're specifically for people with dementia and Alzheimer's, and that made a lot of sense to me. I feel like she is getting the level of care that she needs there because she is suffering from dementia, and they also have end-of-life care, and she is in hospice. For me, as someone dealing with all this, it ticked all the boxes, so that's why I chose this. The upkeep of the place is great. They have someone coming in to clean the rooms almost every day. The staff there is wonderful. They're very professional and very caring. One of the nice things about them is that you don't necessarily have to have furniture, as they have furniture there. In this case, specifically because my mom is at the end of life, it was nice not to have to move furniture again for yet another move, with the idea that we would have to move it again once she passes. So, that was also another nice consideration. My mother has only been there for about three weeks, so I have not had the opportunity to try the food, but I've walked in when lunch is finishing up, and it smells delicious. What's really, really nice is that, because it is a community of people with dementia and Alzheimer's, they still have activities, and they even go places with members of the community who can do that. One of the things they do quite a lot is art. I was just visiting my mother yesterday, and there were little easels set up in the dining room, and people were painting, and it's pretty cool to see that. It's worth the value. It's maybe a little bit more money than what we were paying at the other place, but I think the level of care is more professional, and that's what I was specifically looking for my mom."
