Inman Place in Champaign offers an independent-living setting where residents can maintain their daily routines while having access to targeted medical support. Short-term or respite stays are available for individuals recovering from an illness, surgery, or a caregiver’s absence. For residents managing diabetes, staff are prepared to coordinate blood-sugar monitoring and related dietary needs. A licensed speech therapist is also on call to assist anyone experiencing language, swallowing, or cognitive communication challenges, ensuring continuity of therapeutic care without leaving the community.
Beyond these clinical services, the community organizes regular wellness checks and can arrange transportation to outside medical appointments when needed. Emergency response systems are in place throughout the building so residents can quickly reach staff at any hour. Care plans are reviewed periodically, allowing families and healthcare providers to adjust support levels if a resident’s condition changes.
Apartments vary in size and layout, and not every unit includes every feature. Depending on the floor plan, residents may have kitchenettes for light meal preparation, wheelchair-accessible showers, cable or satellite TV hookups, high-speed internet, and individual climate control. The building is air conditioned, handicap accessible throughout, and equipped with a central fireplace in a shared lounge. Outdoor areas welcome pets and provide space for relaxation, while on-site parking makes it convenient for residents who still drive.
The dining program supplies three daily meals prepared on site, with menus designed to accommodate dietary restrictions such as those required for diabetes management. Guests are welcome to join residents for meals, allowing families to share time together without leaving the community. Staff track resident participation to ensure everyone receives proper nutrition and will coordinate any physician-ordered meal plans.
Residents have access to a library and computer lounge for reading or internet use, an activity center for crafts and games, and outdoor areas for fresh air. The calendar includes birthday parties, dances, live music performances, and scheduled social outings around Champaign. In warm weather, a swimming pool provides a low-impact exercise option and a place to gather with neighbors.
