Tinley Court Catered Senior Living in Tinley Park, IL
4.3

My brother [Removed] lived there for 2 1/2 years. I can't say enough good things about this facility. He had a lot of health needs but was able to be there and maintain a good amount of independence. The staff were always attentive to him and responsive to me. They helped us find wonderful aides who were able to assist him with things that he couldn't do and this allowed him to be as independent as possible. The staff are very caring and personable. The food was home cooked and he raved about it all the time. There were a number of activities and the residents always seemed very social with one another. It was very home like and affordable.

We were at a loss as to how to begin our journey in finding a home for our mother. [name removed] with A Place for Mom was incredible in helping us find the right fit for our needs. Our Mom loves her new apartment and all the residents and staff at Aspired Living of Westmont. They have lots of fun activities not to mention the live music each month on Thirsty Thursday.
