Grace Management, Inc

This is an excellent facility. Staff is extremely professional and welcoming and food is great.

My Mother lives there, enjoys the activities and the ease of the dining experience. Very friendly staff, especially Ruth! She knows everyone- family members too! Would like to see Wi-Fi offered but "in due time":.

Heritage Oaks was on the list recommended by A Place for Mom. I took my father to visit it (May) and after seeing it, he did not want to look at any anymore assisted living locations! The staff, residents were all very cordial and pleasant during the visit. Dad moved into an apartment there in June and he is adjusting and making friends. He is 84 and still wants his independence (that's the Army Sergeant Major in him) and I understand. At least at Heritage Oaks, I know he is safe, has personnel and services he needs close at hand. I would recommend Heritage Oaks to anyone who is looking to place a senior family member who needs some assistance and a wonderful place they can call home.

excellent facility with caring personnel. I would definitely recommend.

My Mother-in-Law went to live in here against Dr's advice. Best move she has made! She was to go to an assistant living - Town Village is an Active Senior Living. Mom is 91 years young and is getting younger every day. She is up at 6, breakfast by 7 and busy all day long with classes that stimulites her mind and body. She has made many friends, is able to get out and go shopping, to the bank, Dr's apt by herself. She is never in her beautiful apartment! I used to call her every day to check up on her, now I can never catch her in the apt. She has a two bedroom apt that gets cleaned by the same person. There are people that are assigned to you so you get to know who is in your place and they get to know you. They all are very friendly and know your likes and dislikes for food. There is a Chef on staff, and as Mom says, the food is fantastic and you can order as much as you want! Mom is very happy with the different activites each week. Like I said, she is getting younger each day!

I think they need to do some pressure washing on the outside patio and walkways . One of the things that is just awesome is that make it a point to take my father to volunteer at a hospital they take him and bring him back that is above and beyond.

They have been very responsive to moms requests to fix things in the apartment, as there were a lot of things wrong when she initially moved in. Mom has only been in there about a month, so the jury is still out, but so far it has been a positive experience.

Other than a few issues which have popped up recently things have been great overall! My parents absolutely love it here, they really enjoy how busy and active the community is! There are so many activities sometimes they leave their apartment in the morning and don't return until the evening. They say it is like a cruise ship! However, they have recently had a lot of turnover in their kitchen staff, and both the quality of the food and the dining service have suffered for it. I'm hoping the decline in dining quality is temporary, because otherwise this place is great!

The day before moving in and the actual move in day were filled with last minute paperwork that I needed to send them by fax and seemingly being not quite prepared for my father's arrival, even though they had set the date and time for us to move in. Care, however, has been excellent. The staff has helped Dad transition easily and are extremely attentive and caring.

My mother has lived here for a few years. The overall experience here has been overwhelming. The staff is amazing. They are so kind and caring to all the residents and visitors. The dining hall here goes beyond anything we ever expected. From the fantastic homemade soups they make each day, to the many choices for each meal to the homemade desserts served daily, it's hard for the residents not to gain weight. The number of activities held daily/weekly are to numerous to list. Their is always something to attend. Plus a movie theatre where great movies are shown daily. The Halloween party is over the top! This is listed and advertised as an independent living facility but the care given to residents goes far beyond any facility I have ever seen! I have slept so much better at night since my mother started living here knowing she is safe and well cared for. My husband and I look forward to the day we can move in.

We recently moved our mother into Brookdale/The Seasons of Northbrook and couldn't be more pleased with the overall experience. First, the facility is beautiful and inviting. The environment is just like being at home (only better) and it was clear all the residents we encountered were very happy there. The entire staff, starting with Sales Counselor, Jeff Altschul, is professional, caring and attentive beyond expectations. This is a top notch senior living community that anyone would be proud to call their home.

I do not know how I will rate this after I have been there a few months. The movers are here today to move me in. All I know is that The Churchill is very expensive. It better be great.

Camelia seemed to be the best choice for me. Its nearer to my son and as affordable as any I was able to find. They have a lot to offer.

We like the place, we haven't really moved all of our stuff in yet. It is very nice. They are a good size.

I toured several different assisted and independent living facilities before recommending this one to my mother based on the main factors of location, price, cleanliness and dining. After touring this and one other facility, she agreed with my recommendation. Shortly after move-in she began to need personal care due to a change in her health and she very much likes the services she receives from the ComforCare personnel (at additional cost). The Town Village and ComforCare personnel are very personable (and observant - they will notify you if they see a change in your loved one's behaviors in case you might not be aware). Mom participates in some of the activities provided by the Town Village staff and also utilizes the services of the on-site hair salon. My experience is that all maintenance requests are performed promptly. They seem to run a pretty "tight ship" and I feel that my mom is in a very safe environment.

It's not perfect but it's really good. We're pleased with it. My dad has meals and I think they're very good. In fact, I'm going there for dinner tonight. I think the activities are good. My dad hasn't participated in a lot but they're good. They have several exercise classes and he enjoys the social things and playing bingo. The housekeeping has been very good. Any time there is something that needs repairing they are very prompt. It's a very friendly place and everyone is really happy to be there. He's doing as well as anywhere. The only negative, and it's not really a negative, is I think they could do a little better with assigning someone to new people to show them around. I'm very pleased. We're really glad he was able to move in there. I can't think of another place that would be as good for him. It's working out well.

The two deciding factors for choosing Sterling House was the price and the fact that it is a smaller establishment. We did not want a large facility. The room they showed me was perfect for my loved one, close to the restaurant and activities. I looked at one other facility before choosing Sterling House.

Staff is very friendly, there's activities but there could be more in my opinion. The food is pretty good, and they do have special meals for holidays. Apartment size is average sized. Staff does make sure the tenants are getting meals and generally safe, but they do not have a licensed nurse on staff. An independent nurse is available but was incapable of helping my father.

My father says he is very happy at Portside at Grande Dunes. The people are extremely caring and responsive. Enjoys happy hour and exercise classes.

The staff is good - there are a lot of activities for residents who have an interest in them. Community is a good mix of independent and assisted living.
