Nursing Home Communities in Winfield, IL

"My wife is in Addolorata Villa. They watch movies, and they play games. They go on a bus trip twice a week, and they go to different stores and other places. My wife gets three meals a day. The staff is fine. I think they are doing a good job. They are quick in responding to her needs. I think it is a nice place. They keep her busy all day. "

"We were impressed with St. Joseph Village of Chicago during our visit. It seemed to have a small community where they would watch over them. The staff seemed friendly. The people we ran into the hallway seemed to be enjoying themselves and it seemed a home rather than an institution. "

"My mother has severe Alzheimers and has been residing at the Self Help home for the past 4 years.She entered with only mild dementia and living independently until she became more and more impaired. Her 85th birthday is in a few weeks , and although she doesnt appear to know who we are anymore. at least shes around to celebrate it. Self Help home has made us,her family, feel safe .My mom has had excellent care there all these years , and the administration and staff there have been very warm and nurturing throughout these very difficult years. Mom cant do anything for herself anymore , but is well-taken care of, and we know this excellent standard of care will continue as long as she is there. "

"I recently spent 7 weeks at Willow Crest, although I do not exactly remember my early stay. The nursing staff was excellent. Even though they were extremely busy, I felt that they took time to respond to my needs. The therapy staff was wonderful and quickly got me back on my feet (literally). The rooms were kept clean and fresh linens and ice were delivered first thing in the morning. The beds were made daily as well. The food was good and I liked the fact that I was able to choose a substitution that I preferred. There were a variety activities offered. My friends on the outside could not believe that I was involved in sing along groups but it was fun and a great way to meet people. Overall, most of the CNAs did a wonderful job. Of course, there were some bad apples, but that happens at any job. No facility is perfect, but I would highly recommend Willow Crest to those who need temporary or long term assistance."

"Winfield Woods Healthcare Center is a wonderful place. I get excellent care all the way around. I would recommend it to anybody. I rest easier knowing that my near-90 father is well taken care of and well provided for. He is in very good hands out there. The hospital is less than a mile away, so if something were to happen, he would be right there. The residents don’t seem to have any complaints with the food. His room is incredibly clean. I have never smelled anything obnoxious there. It is the cleanest place I’ve ever been in. There is a clinical psychologist there that sets up everything. My father just got released from the physical therapy end of it, so now his program will change monthly. It’s a wide array of things, depending on what your social and physical needs are. They have a huge gym there, and they have a wide array of different professional people, psychologists, and psychiatrists. They come and go from there from Central DuPage Hospital, so they have everything covered. I have not one negative thing to say about them. From the time you walk through the door to the time you leave, people recognize you and ask you if you need help finding anything. It has been a totally positive experience for me. "

"This is known as "the county home" to many locals, and it provides exceptionally well regarded care in DuPage County. Employees are government employees who benefit from union and related benefits. The facility is situated adjacent to other government complexes in a safe business district; the sheriff office and the courts are nearby. There is little outdoor space in comparison to the size of the facility, so few residents are seen outside. It is not possible to go for a walk easily in the nearby residential area, without going a good number of blocks down the busy road first. The interior of the facility has an institutional feel and is older, but is very clean and well maintained. The common areas are tastefully decorated and while plentiful, can be full due to the size of the facility. Rooms are of an average size with limited space for personal items, and most are shared. Lighting in the rooms from natural light is highly dependent upon what part of the facility the room is situated in. The food is above average for a facility of this size, though it is certainly not the very best that is out there. Staffing is more consistent than average with a less than average rate of turnover. Care is compassionate, kind, and generally consistent. Residency of DuPage County is an issue with admissions. "

"My mother had to be put into this home after a long hospital stay. It is very close to where I live so it is conveniently located in the western suburb of Chicago, Illinois. The personnel at the home were very pleasant and took good care of my mother who was in her eighties and recovering from an injury and skin graft. After a long hospital stay she was unable to walk. The rehab center at Wynscape was fantastic. I thought for sure my mother would be bound to a wheel chair but over the months from August to October she gradually and slowly began to walk again. I would rate it as five stars in that area. The home was clean and I felt she was well cared for. The rooms were kind of spartan and not the newest and the food left something to be desired. There were also activities for the residents too and they could have visitors and a private room. The facility is part of a complex where they have separate building for independent living and assisted living so if your loved one is able to leave the nursing home, they may go to the assisted living facility for some time, or reside there permanently. I recommend this facility to all. "

"I was able to volunteer at Marianjoy for a summer back in high school. The staff was always very kind and helpful and I actually felt like i was doing something good rather than just getting in people's way. The building itself is very nice and organized, although sometimes it was a bit confusing navigating around if I didn't memorize a map of the place. There is also a very nice garden right outside the building for people to walk around if they feel like they have been stuck inside the building for too long. I was able to talk and meet so many people with different backgrounds and stories. One of my favorite memories was going around to different rooms and just delivering balloons to kids and children for no reason. The look on their faces always made it very worth it. There were times when I felt like I could have been doing more or had more substantial responsibilities, but as a volunteer I suppose you just do what you can and let the people with the actual jobs do the important things. Overall I enjoyed my time at Marianjoy and I am certainly comfortable with having them take care of loved ones who are close to me. "

"West Chicago Terrace was, at least when I visited it, a fairly clean place. When one first enters the nursing home, there are no blatant odors, but rather a smiling young face to greet the visitor. Also, I don't know if it was my personal timing, but the director was there to greet me with a brochere of the facility and a short tour. This particular nursing home has 5 wings, one of which was specifically for persons with greater needs. Even this wing was clean, and had only a slight odor of urine. The food I tasted was sub-par compared to other nursing homes, but the food is not for me, of course. I only visited this facility a few times, so I didn't really get a good read on the employees, but they all seemed rather kind. The one draw back, however, was what seemed like a lack of employees. They seemed a little short handed. But given the state of things, they were doing pretty well with what they had. "

"This may not be the newest building on the block, but the staff is very caring. They are VERY good at contacting the family anytime there is a problem or when your family member needs medical treatment. I was very pleased with the way the staff kept in touch and my uncle seemed to like the facility. There is a nice library for the residents and the surroundings are quite lovely. Other activities are available also, if the residents choose to participate."

"I liked the Windsor Park Manor quite a lot. I am not really happy about how far away this one is from Geneva. The staff was very nice and very helpful. I had a very good tour. It was a very lovely place. One of the things that my wife and I like a lot about both Windsor Park and another facility -- which we have not visited -- is that they have duplex homes for independent living. I had an excellent time. It was very helpful, and I liked it. My only concern as I said was location. It is not really far, but I would like it to be a little closer. It is not quite as convenient as I had hoped. "

"My husband was admitted into Tabor Hills for rehab. Everyone that we encountered from admission to discharge did an awesome job of caring for my husband. The nursing staff and aides were all attentive, thorough, and always available whenever needed. The facility is very clean, and the food was good and always served hot and with a smile. I never saw anyone on the staff be anything but caring and gentle with every single patient there. The physical therapy staff was outstanding! The therapists took time and were flexible when working with my husband and his needs. They made sure he would be able to return home safely and sent him home with a good regimen of exercises he could continue to do. This has been a very stressful situation for my whole family, but the bright star in this whole process has definitely been the care my husband received at Tabor Hills. The staff we encountered had positive attitudes, were dedicated, and provided wonderful care. "

"My husband was at Arista Healthcare. It was good. They were through with their renovations. The location was good. There was very ample parking. The facility was nice and clean. I had issues with a couple of the people. I'm sure that they maybe were having bad days or whatever. I just had a couple issues that I had to complain about. In their dining room/activity room they always had either movies going or games going, bingo, and modified charades. They had something every day. I looked at the schools that my kids went to all through their high school days and the food was better in schools than it was at these places."
