Arbor Terrace in Glenview offers three levels of residency—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care—so residents can stay in one community even as needs change. The Memory Care program accepts residents who wander day or night, may elope, display combative or other challenging behaviors, remain awake overnight, or have advanced dementia. Diabetes management is available for oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale insulin, and the team can also accommodate residents who require wound care, oxygen, or physician-ordered special diets. Younger adults under 60 who need supportive housing are also considered.
A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on site around the clock, backed by an on-call nurse for unplanned events. Staff members undergo background checks, and the night shift remains awake, with doors alarmed for added security. Full assistance is offered with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Mobility needs are met with standby help, one-person or two-person transfers, wheelchair support, Hoyer lift transfers, and care for bed-bound individuals. On-site podiatry and a dedicated therapy room bring certain clinical services directly to the community, and an activity director coordinates daily programs to keep residents engaged.
Private or companion suites may include a personal bathroom, a kitchenette, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option to repaint or decorate; not every suite has every feature, so tours are encouraged to confirm specifics. Scheduled laundry is provided, reducing housekeeping tasks for residents. Independent Living residents receive medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, personal laundry, and a monthly meal plan, allowing them to maintain autonomy with supportive oversight.
Dining is prepared to order, and snacks are available at any time. The culinary team manages physician-directed diets, diabetic menus, and other modifications without isolating residents from the main dining experience. Residents who need full assistance with eating receive unobtrusive help so they can finish meals safely and with dignity.
Resident life is rounded out with on-site parking, outdoor smoking areas, and pet-friendly policies; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. The property is wheelchair accessible and houses a barber and beauty salon, exercise room, movie theater, wellness center, library, and communal gardens. Internet access, on-site religious services, and a concierge desk keep daily living organized and connected. Scheduled transportation is available for medical appointments, errands, and community outings.
