Maywood Supportive Living in Maywood, Illinois offers both Assisted Living and Independent Living. The community is equipped to manage residents who are diabetic, whether they take oral medications, receive insulin injections, or follow a sliding-scale regimen. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on site around the clock, and an additional nurse is always on call, providing continuous oversight for medication monitoring and routine health checks. While the community can deliver substantial medical and personal care, it does not provide specialized services for residents with dementia.

Daily care tasks are supported by trained staff who have cleared background checks and remain awake during the night shift. Residents who need help with bathing, eating, or dressing can receive some physical assistance, while toileting support is offered on a standby-supervision basis. Transfer help ranges from standby or one-person assistance to use of walkers or wheelchairs. Safety measures include door alarms, pull-cord systems, personal emergency response pendants, and 24-hour security personnel. An activity director coordinates programs that align with residents’ abilities and care plans.

Accommodations include a mix of floor plans; some have private bathrooms, kitchenettes, and furnishings, while others may offer only selected features. Cable service, regular housekeeping, and scheduled laundry are available to all residents. The environment is designed to be accessible, and rooms can be personalized within community guidelines.

Meals follow a set menu served at scheduled times, with snacks always available. The kitchen can prepare modified or therapeutic diets as ordered by a physician or dietitian to accommodate diabetic or other nutritional requirements. Independent Living residents may opt into medication-management monitoring, housekeeping, and laundry services when they prefer to step back from these responsibilities.

Residents have access to on-site parking, outside smoking areas, wheelchair-friendly common spaces, a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, library, and communal gardens. Wi-Fi, concierge assistance, and regularly scheduled religious services are also provided. Transportation options include a community shuttle for medical appointments and proximity to public transit.
