#1 in Lake Forest, IL

Residents and their families say:

This community receives commendations for its professionalism, cleanliness, and the quality of its facilities, including large apartments, cottage homes, and a variety of amenities such as a swimming pool and newly remodeled dining areas. Many reviewers praised the staff across different departments for being helpful, friendly, and competent, contributing to a sense of well-being and community among residents. The food quality received positive remarks, described as good to excellent. Residents and their families appreciate the full continuum of care, the nice social atmosphere, and the convenience of its location. The community is pet-friendly, which was a deciding factor for some in choosing to move in. The connection with Northwestern University hospital system was highlighted for providing excellent care.

However, certain concerns were raised concerning staffing and care within the memory unit, where there have been reports of understaffing issues, including instances of falls and patients being left unattended. There were specific criticisms about the management of care during meal times and two instances of staff found sleeping. Despite these concerns, many feel the benefits, such as the community's overall friendliness, extensive amenities, and the quality of rehabilitation services, make it a recommendable place to live. Some noted the community is expensive but worth the amenities and services provided.
