Avantara Long Grove in Long Grove, Illinois operates as a skilled nursing facility, offering short-term and long-term nursing home care with 24-hour licensed nursing oversight. Residents who need a temporary stay can access dedicated respite care, and those recovering from surgery or illness have onsite physical therapy delivered by licensed rehabilitation professionals. The therapy department works closely with nursing staff to help residents regain mobility, manage pain and improve strength, all within the facility’s fully equipped therapy gym.
Beyond direct medical treatments, the clinical team develops individualized care plans that address medication management, wound care, post-acute monitoring and coordination with outside physicians. Care conferences are held regularly to review progress and adjust goals. Certified nursing assistants provide support with daily tasks, while registered nurses monitor vital signs and changes in condition around the clock. Laboratory, pharmacy and diagnostic services are arranged as needed, reducing the need for outside appointments.
Accommodations at this assisted-living facility include a selection of private and shared rooms, with some offering direct access to outdoor areas for fresh air and supervised recreation. A library and computer lounge is available inside the building, giving residents a quiet place to read, use a computer or meet with family members. Not every room includes each of these features, so prospective residents should confirm specific availability during a tour.
Meals are prepared onsite and served three times a day, with snacks offered between meal periods. The dietary team follows physician-ordered nutrition plans, accommodates common therapeutic diets and monitors intake for residents with special requirements such as diabetes or modified textures. Residents who prefer to dine in their rooms can request tray service, while others can eat in the communal dining room where staff are on hand to assist with seating and portion control.
An activity center serves as the hub for daily programs, including structured arts and crafts sessions that encourage fine-motor skills and social engagement. The life-enrichment staff posts a monthly calendar and helps residents select activities that match their interests and abilities, providing supplies and adaptive tools when necessary.
