Chapters Living of Barrington

They could use more staff in memory care because they are very busy. The staff is excellent and caring.

When we arrived we were located in a small unit. My wife required extra care so another bed was required. They moved us into a larger unit for NO additional charge! They acquired a bed for my wife which she used daily to allow circulation for her bottom to help a healing process. A night nurse was always available to provide assistance when needed. We are hoping to stay here till the end of life!

Joined my dad and sister for the Thanksgiving meal. The food was amazing and you could feel the love in the room from the staff to the entertainment to the food - all was beautiful.

Sunrise of Barrington is a lovely facility with a home-like atmosphere. For remembrance care, they do their best with their patients. All of their care is individualized.Sunrise of Barrington was able to accept my parent quickly and for less money than other facilities .

They were experienced with care resistance.I would strongly recommend based on my experience so far.

The daily staff of CNN's are very caring and they're very attentive to my family member. They make her feel very comfortable and they also give good suggestions on how to give her extra help (if needed), how to process Medicare, hospice, and all other agencies in order to give her the best care possible. They are very well versed in that.

My experience has been disappointing. The activities are lacking, there's nothing to do. There's no place to exercise and no library for books. It's very boring. The place is nice inside, but we're kind of disappointed. The food could be better, it tastes ok most of the time and sometimes it's not good. The choices lack variety and become kind of boring. They mostly serve chicken and a little bit of steak.

My loved one is pretty happy here. The staff have been good to work with when I have had to work with them. There has been a slight staff turnover due to the pandemic. Bingo is one of the activities offered at the community for the residents.

I moved my cousin into Sunrise of Barrington on [date removed] after getting personal accolades from others who have had their loved ones there. From meeting the Director to working with the intake and nursing staff the experience could not have been more positive. I was assured that now they would be the caretakers and I could be the family who came to enjoy visits and set our relationship back to where it was. The weight that was lifted by know the care given to my family member was amazing! If we had a doctor appointment they were ready to get in the car when I picked them up. I visited at all hours and they were engaged in activities and were in good spirits. The communication about status, medication and health are thorough and frequent. I even got a call about a small cut and that a bandage was applied! Then with the onset of COVID and the shut down of visit the communication was even better. The staff worked with families to keep us informed and to adapt to visits outside as soon as they could. I would, and have recommended, Sunrise of Barrington to anyone. They have a special place in my heart and that of my extended family. Having someone walk with you through the journey of a loved one have Alzheimer's is a gift like no other.

My wife has been in memory care for more than two years at Sunrise of Barrington. She has received the attention necessary to address and serve the types of personalities and behavior one would expect of an Alzheimer patient. For two hours six days a week I observe the care staff when I feed lunch to her and I have established a friendly relationship with all of them. I like the hustle and alertness they give daily for the residents, a result of their training. Management has been approachable and receptive to suggestions, and concerns are quickly considered. Senior care is a competitive and profitable industry as more of them are diagnosed with multiple illnesses' so prices might make one gulp. Sunrise of Barrington established itself as a reputable care facility some years ago and my dollars are returning full value.

Sunrise of Barrington is a very clean and beautiful community. The staff is very friendly and caring. My Mom is in the memory care unit and I feel that we have made a good choice for her security and safety. The staff seems well educated in handling any problems that may arise. I'm not sure of the activities that are available for my Mom. I'm really not sure what she can is capable of doing at this time. Sunrise of Barrington is one of the more affordable ones we had looked at, but it is still expensive. We may have to keep looking for something more affordable.

Liked it very much. [Removed] is darling. They have a rescued house dog. Locked facility.

They are very nice but way out of my price range. For what they ar offering for activities it was more than I wanted to pay. It was a fine tour and I was impressed with Denise, she was knowledgeable. Overall, it is out of my way. We need to be able to reach my loved one as soon as i can.

They have a really high level of care, especially when it comes to having different activities that people with this level of dementia can be. Their second floor which is their dementia unit which is amazing. They have got it figured out, it's all about what they can do, instead of what they can't do. You can visit as a family member and be included, you aren't made to feel like your interrupting. It is extremely expensive, they will raise it up come January 1st. They encouraged expression.

It was an immaculate place, and the staff is very friendly. There were no hidden charges. They are really trying with the activities, they had a good variety, it's hard to accommodate for all the varying levels of interest. They listened to the residents, and let them help dictate and direct what they wanted to do. They work really hard to make the population happy there. The food was fantastic. The chef got to know the residents, and there were lots of choices of food, and there were always things you could have if you didn't like it. I left thinking if I were ever in a position where I needed to go somewhere, I can't imagine anyplace else comparing to them. I would have liked to have had a counselor, though the staff was always willing to talk with you. I also liked that they held a communion. They also had a fantastic memorial day service. One nice thing is that they have the people who need more care upstairs, and while there is some mingling, I think peoples needs are more able to be met the way it is set up. I was very apprehensive about going to assisted living, my mind immediately went to the idea of a nursing home. I would have thought I was in a hotel, and they have concierge too.

Top rate in all respects. Highly recommended.
