"I had my husband in for a rehab stay and the staff were outstanding. From the moment we walked in and met with Admissions and the Director of Nursing, we felt at ease and welcome. A very professionally run home that was clean and friendly. "

"Driving up to this facility, it doesn't look like much. Once inside you will find a friendly and caring staff. This is a clean and orderly facility. There s no "nursing home" smell. Patient rooms are small with two beds each. It is mostly quiet, with occasional outbursts by a few patients. Bathrooms are kept clean. The food is very good; it tastes like homemade meals. Most residents enjoy their meals in the dining room. Residents are encouraged to participate in daily every classes, and other activities. The PT/OT staff are excellent. The PT/OT equipment is well maintained, and is only underfunded the direct supervision by the PT/OT staff. Daily therapy sessions are carefully planned and carried out. Patients progress at their own pace. "

"My mother-in-law is on the 5th floor dementia Lockdown. She is doing so much better than she was at home. Her clothes are clean and the floor is very clean and bed is very clean. The staff is very attentive and nice and caring. The Head nurse is excellent and the social services person is on top of things. We had some family issues and they were all involved and took all precautions needed. I cannot comment on the food because I have never eaten it but she eats all of it and says its good."

"My family member needed physical therapy assistance to be able to return to her original nursing home after she was in the hospital. I cannot say enough, how professional and caring each and everyone was there. Every employee was helpful, pleasant, and caring. I am truly grateful for everything they did for my family member."

"I toured Glenwood Healthcare & Rehab when I was looking for a place for my mother. The place was very good and seemed to be very accommodating. They had numerous activities for the residents to participate in, went out for dinner or lunch, and played games. "

"The staff was incredible; they really cared about my grandfather and my family. They made sure that my grandmother could spend as much time as she wanted with him, and also made sure that she had food to take her insulin with every day. The staff was very alert and aware of changes in my grandfather's condition and was proactive in treating even the slightest symptom. When he began to receive hospice care at the facility, the staff seemed just as moved emotionally as we were. The facility is also well kept and extremely clean. We were very lucky to find Tri-state, as there were not many facilities in the area that had good ratings from the state. "

"Manorcare South Holland has a very professional and caring staff. The care they are currently providing my Mother is supportive and is substantial. Thank you to all the staff members. "

"I toured Park Place of St. John. It's a very nice place. It's well-kept and well-managed, and nothing is out of place. The garages were small, but everything was clean. The staff was excellent and very informative. She showed me everything I needed to see, including some stuff I would probably never use. She showed me everything that was at that facility. The rooms are smaller than the ones I live in, but that's okay."

"I've been to BRIA of Chicago Heights. It was nice. It was welcoming. They explained a lot of things about the place. They were getting some events ready for the residents. When I went, they were playing some music for them, and they were doing little activities. It was okay. It was clean. The workers were doing their job taking care of the residents. The residents looked clean. The staff spoke to me, and they greeted me."

"It was much better than I last remember. It used to be horrible. It smelled really bad now it's so clean and the staff is friendly. They take good care of the old people there. They look like they enjoy living there. I visited with my friend and she was going to see her mom. "

"We chose Prairie Manor for Dad because of the location and because a lot of other places didn't have any openings. They have a lot of activities. One of the downsides is it's not a really big facility. There are other facilities that had more common areas, and this one is kind of small. Howverve, overall I like it, and my dad likes it there. We're happy with it. I've only heard him complain about the food one time, otherwise he says he likes it. The staff members are pretty nice and always friendly. They have Bingo twice a week, movie days, and every holiday they have Thanksgiving dinner. They do what they can to keep the residents busy and occupied. The only negative is that if you call for a nurse to get medication, it could take a while. I think it's because they have so many patients and understaffing could be an issue, but that's pretty much common everywhere. In general, nursing homes are really expensive, but compared to other facilities, Prairie Manor is pretty reasonable."

"Our experience having my mom here has been good so far. They take her into therapy, they help her with walking, and getting her back into daily life. It's clean and doesn't have that odor or smell when you walk in. The staff is nice and friendly."
