Recent reviews of Independent Living in Ramsey, IL
Villas at St. James in Breese, IL
5.0

Our family is very happy to have grandpa at The Villas at St. James. He didn’t want to leave his home but [name removed] made him feel comfortable. He sits with “the guys” and enjoys meal times. They take the bus for rides which he loves since he can no longer drive. The staff is always friendly and helpful. It is a great place.

Cedarhurst of Breese
3.8

Point system cost went from $250 to $600 per month. Nothing changed for the services. This was a 140% increase. No one could answer why this increase (just the wayt it is, "I was told.) No a rent increase of 15%. Outrageous! You are sucking the elderly dry. So sad. Social Security did not increase 15%!

Cedarhurst of Highland
4.0

My loved one was previously a resident at Cedarhurst of Highland and he really enjoyed it there. He had some really great care givers, but they did have a good bit of turnover and some of his favorite people left for other jobs. They were very caring and kind and he was well taken care of. The food seemed fine, but the housekeeping was lacking. Overall, I would highly recommend Cedarhurst of Highland for anyone looking for Assisted Living. They seem to really care about their residents.
