Recent reviews of Independent Living in Buffalo, IL
Randall Residence of Decatur
5.0

Everything is wonderful and clean at this community. The staff are very nice and attentive to my aunt and especially in her time of need after losing her dog. My aunt is adjusting well and has gained 10 pounds since staying with the community. My aunt loves the meals provided, she reads me the menu everyday! Overall it is a good place for my aunt and I would most certainly recommend this community.

Centennial Pointe Senior Living in Springfield, IL
5.0

Mom is eating good, walking more and enjoys the company. The staff that are there are so loving with the residents. It does seem like they are a little understaffed as I do not think mom is getting checked on as often as she was supposed to. There is a nurse on site all day and night. I have good communication with the staff and I would recommend this community.

Brenden Gardens in Springfield, IL
4.6

I enjoy the activities and interaction with other residents. We do gardening, play cards, help each other, and have meals together. There is a good variety of outside activities and Ageility which is the Therapy department is very good. The management is receptive and the serving staff is very helpful.
