Memory Care Communities in Rolling Meadows, IL

"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."

"My mom stayed in Alden Gardens of Des Plaines initially, and it was very good overall. We would give them a very high ranking except for the high price. They had a lot better care than the second facility she was in before. Their response to whatever my mom needed was a lot better. The food was a lot better. Overall it wasn't bad. They clean the room almost every day and wash the bathroom constantly. I know there was some activity, but my mom did not participate. "

"The visit at Addolorata Villa was very nice. The staff was very friendly and open. The dining room was a little darker than I would like. The woman who took us around knew everything that you needed to know about the facility, and knew all the people there by name."

"My father has only been at Belmont Village Buffalo Grove for a few days, but so far, so good. We chose them because of the staff and the location. They're all very helpful and very personable, and I got a really good feeling when my dad and I visited them. The facility seems very well kept up and a little formal. My dad was a little intimidated because he's a more relaxed kind of guy, but it's very clean and very nice. He's really liked the food so far. He said it was excellent. They had a wine and cheese night last night that I know he went to. He said it was really fun and he enjoyed it. I know they have a wide range of activities going on every day, like they print out a full schedule that they put on their door every morning. They have a little cafe that's open during the day when the kitchen isn't open. There are complimentary beverages and snacks. They have a full library and a computer center. They have laundry right there. Everything's readily available. They have all the doctors onsite and everything, so it's been good. It's not cheap or anything, but you get what you pay for."

"Arden Courts of Northbrook was a really excellent place for Alzheimer's patients. The rooms were small but nice and clean. The staff that I met seemed very professional and very caring. They had sing-alongs. There were small dining areas in four different wings, so that the patients don't have to go far to eat. The staff know the patients and the patients know the staff. They're comfortable because they know where they are and what they're supposed to be doing, which is important for Alzheimer's patients. "

"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. "

"My sister was living at Ciel Senior Living of Long Grove. It's very clean and very friendly. Their approach was excellent. Their food was sufficient, but it could use a variety. My sister's room was more than adequate. It's a nice size. She was in one with a bedroom, a front room, a kitchenette, and a bathroom. They did Scrabble and bingo, and they went out for lunch."

"Sunrise is such a great place! Unfortunately, they didn't have availability. When we visited they only have one large shared room available. It has a bathroom and a kitchenette. It can help residents save money which is good but it wasn't what we were looking for. I find their cleanliness and staff outstanding. "

"Clarendale of Addison was very nice. They were brand new and a little smaller. They overlooked pretty much just parking lots and cement, but facilities were close by. They had an exercise room. They certainly had a dining room, which was lovely. They had a cafe in between. They had a flooding problem that they were fixing. It was brand new and looked nice."

"We selected the Auberge at Lake Zurich for my husband. I love the community. Most memory care centers cannot adequately care for an insulin-dependent diabetic. Some will say they can, but they are not changing their staff ratios. They need to have trained staff because insulin-dependent diabetics require constant monitoring and calculation of carbs from their meals. That is a need that most memory care facilities cannot meet, and this facility can. They follow what's called the MIND diet, which is a brain-healthy and heart-healthy diet. They understand the kind of diet we're trying to eat now. They have meaningful activities that challenge the brain. They keep their residents engaged. They've got an enclosed area for walking, and my husband loves exercise. We're going to be starting with respite care. At some point, I'll be moving him in full-time, but I'm not ready to do that yet. Their prices are incredibly reasonable, and they're all-inclusive. Many care facilities start you at a base rate, depending on whether you want a shared or a private room. From there, the prices go up depending on the level of care. The Auberge and other facilities near us are all-inclusive. It's one price for a private room, one lower price for a shared room, and then that's it. You're not nickeled-and-dimed to death with every little thing. They're able, and they're willing to look at the care plan for each person on an individual basis. If there are supplements I want him to be taking, if there are things I want him to be doing, specific diets I want them to adhere to, they're willing to do that. Whatever is important for each patient, they write up in the care plan, and they manage to that level, and that is important. Most places are not going to do that. They're a dedicated memory care. It's very well kept. They are owned by a company that is invested in this community. When I visited, they were in the process of revamping the entire place. They have four separate buildings. It's a community feel. It's not a big institutional feel. Each facility is smallish with the rooms around the outside and the open areas for dining, living, and kitchen in the inside, and it's got a home-like feel, which is important. I met with the executive director, and he struck me as a very kind, caring man who cares for each of his residents a lot and is there to meet their needs. I was very impressed with the facility. It was very clean, neat, and organized. The ongoing effort to maintain a high standard of appearance and to renovate as necessary is important. I want to see money being put into a place to keep it in good shape, and I saw that."

"Sunrise of Park Ridge was really nice. We liked the way the building looked, and the people who walked us through were very friendly. They knew their business. They knew what they were talking about, and they were very helpful. The facility was very clean, very warm, inviting, and nice looking. Their rooms were very nice too, and they had everything my sister would need. I liked the fact that it has a kitchen and a small refrigerator that she could have a few things in. Their activities were very much what everybody else was offering, and they seemed to offer a wide variety of it."

"When we walked in to Bridgeway of Bensenville, we felt that that was it. They were very, very nice and friendly. The open area was very nice as well as the apartment and it's not that expensive. The people are wonderful and really make you feel at home. The food is very good. I'll recommend this place to other people. "

"Sedgebrook became my new HOME in July, 2025. I choose Sedgebrook because of the environment that was safe, secure and conducive to my lifestyle. The atmosphere of congeniality and professionalism was evident during the first tour. The residents have been friendly and helpful. The staff was warm and inviting. The apartment is perfect for me with large windows, new appliances and plenty of storage. Activities are many and geared to many interests. Meals are chef prepared and really very good. The welcoming climate has made the transition easy and comfortable."
