Vi at The Glen in Glenview, Illinois, operates as a continuing care retirement community, giving residents access to multiple levels of support under one roof. The community is equipped to deliver short-term respite care for those recovering from illness or surgery and provides structured diabetes management, including monitoring and medication assistance, for residents who need help controlling blood sugar levels.
An emergency call system is installed throughout the property and is monitored by staff at all hours.

Apartments come in several floor plans, some offering wall-to-wall carpet, in-unit washer and dryer, central air conditioning, cable TV connections, and wheelchair-accessible showers. Certain units are pet friendly and may feature direct access to outdoor gardens or walking paths, while others are closer to the library and computer lounge for convenient internet use and reading. Because layouts differ, not every apartment contains every listed feature, so confirming specific details during a tour is advised.
