I would tell a friend that, they should definitely check out Brookdale Vernon Hills. It's a nice facility. However, some of the services you might think are included are actually ala carte and $$$. Others, like ensuring your loved one has their meds, may not be available at all. I imagine all such senior facilities are like this, but it can still be surprising where and when you run into these issues.
