Assisted Living Communities in Schaumburg, IL

"It was clean and the people there were a lot active. The rooms looked pretty good. They had a nice setup for the dining room. It didn't have a full wall. It only had a half wall so residents could see you and you could see the residents. The main desk was right as you walked in, so that was convenient, and we didn't have to look for it. The staff was very informative and very professional. She followed up with me, which was nice. She was very bubbly and very happy. We were informed of the activities, how they presented the meals, that they had alternative meals, and we were shown a room. They had a barbershop and a library too."

"I did an in-person tour of Clarendale of Addison's independent living. The lady who did the tour was very good and very thorough. I was very impressed with the facility. It was very nice and clean. Everybody I've seen in the independent living part seems to be very much in tune with everything and a very friendly group. All in all, I thought it was a very good experience."

"My mom loved living at Alden Gardens of Bloomingdale for the past four years. She was able to still have her independence, but there was always help there when she needed it. It gave all of us her family such peace of mind knowing she wasn't alone. The staff there was wonderful. They were very warm and patient with the elderly residents. The building was always clean and welcoming. The dining room always had such a nice variety of meals. There was always something going on if the residents wanted to join in. It allows them to be able to still interact with others instead of sitting alone. Aging is a difficult thing for all of us, but to know there are people who care is so wonderful. They do a great job at Alden Gardens. "

"It is a very nice place, but it is a buy-in. I'm not interested in that. I am very impressed with it though. The rooms are adequate. They have activities, but they are not anywhere near what I have outside the community. They have a very small library and a craft room. The food is excellent."

"My father-in-law is here now. It just works out well. They have a memory care center that my mother-in-law could go into and then assisted living for my father-in-law, so it's just a good fit for them. My father-in-law seems to be happy. We can't visit him but everything is going well. He really likes the food. It's been really good. I think my father-in-law is very happy with the staff."

"We went to visit Victory Centre of Bartlett and it had a nice atmosphere to it. The rooms were all decent. It was perfect if you wanted an assisted living facility. "

"I visited Generations at Oakton Arms. The least I liked was that it wasn't a one-level place, it has elevators but other than that, the amenities and everything they offer were great. They had maintenance out cleaning up when I was out there. It didn't feel like a nursing home. It feels like a little home. They had a workout room and a gathering room where people could go and practice their religion and the staff was pretty nice."

"I would like to especially give a shout out to Toni and her staff for the service they provide to residents living independently. They have made a definite impact with our mother and communicate well with family members Thank you "

"I went to see Addolorata Villa. They have a 2-bedroom and 2-bath. I looked at assisted living. It’s not new and it is showing more wear and tear because it is older. The people are very nice. They don’t have many amenities, but they are not expensive. They have medical people who come in the place so the residents don’t have to go out. It’s also Catholic and my parents are Catholic and they like that it has a chapel. That is another plus for us. "

"When I moved my mother to Belmont Village, I needed a place in a hurry. I had looked there and another facility the previous year but decided to wait. Suddenly, my mother needed more supervision due to her advancing dementia. I have found the staff at Belmont Village to be very conscientious. They really seem to care about and for their residents. When my mother had only been there a few weeks staff members who I did not know knew that I was her daughter. The staff notifies me when they have concerns about any changes in her behavior or eating habits. They work hard to keep the residents involved in the activities. My mother is in the Circle of Friends program so she may have more organized activities than some other residents. Belmont Village is always clean. I have never noticed any unpleasant odor and I am there quite often. I would highly recommend Belmont Village for people with some dementia who need assistance. I don't really know much about other aspects of the facility. "

"I like Ciel Long Grove. I have tried their food, and it was very good. I had a cheeseburger. It was the best food that I've had of all places. The appearance of the facility was very nice. The people were very friendly and very nice. I liked the rooms. The activities they offered were pretty decent, too. The person who helped me was very, very informative and very nice. Everyone seemed very nice. I met a lot of the staff. The community feels a little bit smaller. Everyone works well together and enjoys working with each other."

"I toured it and that was lovely. It seemed very active, too. A lot of things were going on when I was there. However, religiously my mom is very Catholic, and there's a majority of Jewish people there, so it just didn't seem like it was going to be a good fit permanently. The place itself was lovely, and the people and the residents seemed like they were happy and all that, so that was good. The apartment was nice too."

"Both mom and dad are at Belmont Village at Geneva Road. They provide complete care of his current dementia situation. They had special classes that he can attend to help improve his mental health. The food is outstanding. I have eaten multiple meals there -- both the menu and specials -- and I think they are by far the best of the facilities that we've visited. "

"My mom has moved into Franciscan Court. All of the staff is very friendly, and I've found that they're very attentive to my mother's needs. It's very clean, and well-organized in terms of activities. The meals are good quality. They do help keep my mother on a good schedule, and make sure she's up and active during the day and not just sitting around. They do pay attention to any physical needs that she has. In terms of any cuts or abrasions or anything like that, they take good care of that. My mom has moved into a studio. I think it helps her to be motivated to get out of the room and do some activities. If the room or the space was big, she might tend to stay in it more. I know they have 1-bedroom available. They have a library that's available at all times and other activities to keep everybody up and moving as much as possible."
