Meadowbrook Bolingbrook
5.0

My mother has been in Meadowbrook Bolingbrook, IL for over a year. I find my Mother’s Doctor, Nurses, Aid Tech, Administrators, Kitchen Staff, Social Workers and Reception area staff, all of them are Great (friendly, professionals and very helpful). It is a big relief at this time of Pandemic to find that my Mother is at Meadowbrook Bolingbrook, IL among the most caring Staff. [name removed]

The Gardens of Waterford in Aurora, IL
4.0

I have lived here for 5+ years. The food is by far better than other places I've been. Staff are friendly and very helpful. This is Alden's main campus and the grounds are beautiful. Festive holiday decorations make this a very homey atmosphere. I call this "home".

Willow Crest Nursing Pavillion, Ltd. in Sandwich, IL
4.0

I had a good experience living her but I found something nicer. At this community you have to wait for the nurse to bring your medications. At times I waited 6 hours when I am suppose to get it every 4 hours. If I rang the bell for my medication, the aides would come to my room and I would tell them I need medications. Then they would go look for the nurse and tell me they are making their runs. I did not like the wait.
