November 7, 2024Thank you so much for the wonderful review. So glad that you witness such wonderful interactions with the residents and staff!
Recently our mom fell and broke her pelvis and could not remain at home independently. We contacted Cedarbrook and they did not hesitate to help us. They were able to find a comfortable one-bedroom apartment immediately for her. We were able to furnish it for her with things from home, before she was released from rehab, to make it feel like she was coming home. The staff have been incredible with her, and everyone is reaching out to make sure she has what she needs at all moments of the day. They are welcoming to all of our family and they all know us by name! If we have questions for anyone we reach out and they are answered immediately, and if the person we ask doesn't know the answer it is soon found and quickly communicated to us. We love that there are nurses on the premises and that mom can continue her rehab right there. We have peace of mind knowing that Mom is safe and well cared for, and if she needs anything there is always someone there to reach out to help her.

October 23, 2024Claudia, thank you so much for the wonderful review. We are so happy to hear that mom is doing great and that you have peace of mind knowing her needs are being met.
My mom recently fell and broke her hip. Returning to her home was not an option. Fortunately there was a spot for her at Cedarbrook Village in Ware. The staff was amazing at meeting with us quickly and helping my mom to adjust. It was a major adjustment and she wasn't sure about leaving her home, but the care and comfort provided by Cedarbrook has helped to ease some of her fears. We've met lots of residents who have all been encouraging and friendly. The facility has lots of space, great food (I've already joined her for lunch!) and friendly assistants.

October 18, 2024Johnna, Thank you so much for sharing your review. We are so pleased that mom's transition to Cedarbrook went well.
If your loved one dies, you still pay for the month. That was the only negative I have about Cedarbrook Village at Ware.

October 16, 2024I am happy to hear that your loved one experienced wonderful care and meals while here at Cedarbrook Village. A 30 day notice is the industry standard for these situations, and I appreciate your feedback on the matter.
When we took my dad to look at Cedarbrook Village. He was very apprehensive about the move. He’s 95 years old and he lived in his home for over 58 years. He finally made the decision to move in and in one week, he has become a much happier person. the transition for him and to see him so happy in what we are sure will be his last years, has certainly made me as his daughter extremely happy as well. to see how he how he socializes with so many people now and not being so alone and enjoying every piece of atmosphere. The food is outstanding. Everyone is so comfortably nice and has made him feel so welcomed and to be truly at home. we can’t say enough about Mary who brought us through the building, [name removed], who is sitting at the front desk when we enter they always have such big smiles on their faces with such a welcome feeling to everyone who enters this truly has been a very happy week for all involved .

August 28, 2024We are so happy that dad has made such a wonderful transition to his new home. Thank you for taking the time to share his experience with others and yours.
The staff are great. The nursing leadership leave something to be desired in their communication between shifts. However, they have since let go some of the staff that were making this an issue. We'll see what the future brings. I would definitely recommend Cedarbrook Village at Ware to others looking.

April 12, 2024Tracey, thank you for taking the time to write a review for us! We do have a wonderful care staff and I will share your kind compliment with them.
Welcoming front desk staff. Executive Director and marketing staff all pleasant and helpful. Answered all of our questions. Provided lots of details for us to consider. All the staff have smiles on their faces when they are working! Very helpful to residents and their families. Extremely clean and well maintained facility. Bright and up to date environment. Wish we made the move sooner.

I think my comment is more general, but families should be prepared to do lots of advocacy for their family member. Their special meals they do really well. Their portions for my specific family member are too large. It's often not super warm, but my mom gets hers in her room. And I think if you stick with the safer choices it's ok. But I'd equate it to low cafeteria quality. The kitchen staff, however are excellent, kind and attentive.

March 7, 2024Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review. I'm so happy to hear that you find the staff here friendly and attentive. We encourage you to speak to our Dining Director if you or mom ever feel a meal is not up to your standards. We strive to provide excellent food and welcome feedback.
Cedar Brook is a beautiful, clean, facility. The people who live there are very happy. The staff is friendly, respectful, and helpful. Multiple activities keep the tenant engaged and active which is important for the aging populate. Medical assistance is available if needed as well. A comprehensive living arrangement.

December 21, 2023Thank you do much for the wonderful review. I'm glad to hear that we are able to meet your loved ones needs.
I recently spent 2 weeks visiting my parents at your community. The facilities are great! More importantly the staff is incredible! Every member made me feel that I was a part of your community during my visit. Dining room staff, Pca's, nursing staff, maintenance personal and front office staff are an incredibly kind, compassionate and care for my parents like they were their own family. So many staff members seem like their being there is a calling rather than a job! I want to thank all of you for caring for my parents so well! I already have another trip booked for Easter. I look forward to seeing you soon.

Cedarbrook is beautiful and immaculate. The aides and nurses are friendly, compassionate, and professional. When something needs attention, they immediately attend to the situation. The front office, including the receptionist, are top notch.

I have been living here in IL for months. It has been my best decision in six years. Other residents very friendly. We have meaningful conversations throughout the day and especially at meal time. Outing are always fun. Management helpful and open to suggestions.

December 6, 2023Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts about living here at Cedarbrook. We are fortunate to have residents like you!
I am impressed with the care and attention given to my dad. Everyone literally goes above & beyond to make my dad feel included and well cared for. It is the little details like a food server sitting and holding his hand on a bad day. Like a receptionist taking the time to go and talk with him when needed. Like exercise offered to him in his room when he can't go to an exercise class. Everyone who works there is friendly and the PCA's are top notch. They all go above & beyond to assit and give care even beyond their assignments for the day.

December 6, 2023Thank you for the kind words Lynn. We know this isn't the home our residents always knew, but we want them to always feel supported.
If you take a tour of Cedarbrook you can’t help but miss the obvious……it’s beautiful, it’s clean and you’ll be greeted by a very friendly staff. But Cedarbrook is so much more than that. It’s a safe living community filled with many kind helping hands. My partner of many years recently became a resident in the memory care unit. If you’ve ever been a caregiver to someone with dementia you know how challenging it can be. So, as the caregiver, here is what I’ve come to know so far. The management has more than accommodating in every way I can think of. The memory care team is wonderful. They are patient, understanding and respectful in meeting the needs of the residents and as a regular visitor I see this on a daily basis. The Wellness Center has been extremely helpful and supportive and is a devoted care team as well. They stay on top of everything and keep me very well informed. At the end of the day I know my guy is well cared for and cared about and that gives me peace of mind.

November 30, 2023Thank you so much for the kind words Deb. We are so happy that you and your loved one are receiving the support needed.
It was important to us that Mom be someplace where she could be safe, active, and surrounded by people to interact with. She has made friends, praises the staff, and is happy. We especially worried about the long winter days, but now she is not stuck in the house by herself, always something to do. The staff is wonderful.

November 30, 2023Thank you for taking the time to write a review Sharon. Glad to hear that your mom is happy and enjoying herself.
I was blessed to find Cedarbrook for a warm and caring place for my mom who was 90. Though her last 2 and half years had their physical challenges, the staff and Administration took excellent care of her body and soul. When she finally needed Memory Care, I found both a professional and a friend in Lena, the head of the department. In the final days of my beautiful mom's life, [name removed] made sure that she had care, comfort, hospice, ice cream sundaes and joy. Thank you for it all.
