Mom has lived here over 2 1/2 years. She could no longer be left alone but did not go happily. Current staff are very good and kind. (loved receptionist!) Biggest complaint continues to be bad meals. Most all meals are not to her liking. Burnt toast, hard meat, and vegetables in general.

We liked this community when we toured it. The people we met were nice and the community looked clean. This community was just a little farther away then what we were looking for. I would recommend taking a look at it.

Comfort for mom!
My mother is doing well since her move into Grand Victorian of sycamore. She has started to join activities and get more involved. They could use some improvement on meals, though. They serve sandwiches for dinner, I think they could do better. The facility is clean and well maintained. Housekeeping cleans her room once a week.

Couldn't Be Happier!!
I highly recommend the Grand Victorian of Sycamore to a friend because it is an amazing place to live in. The staff is wonderful. The community is maintained very clean at all times and anytime I have an issue in my room that needs to be fixed, they are quick to respond, tom the head of maintenance is great. They told me that soon they will be putting new carpet in all of the rooms which is wonderful. The meals are good, could be better. My favorite part of the meals is breakfast, they let us order whatever we want. The community offers a variety of activities such as crafts, bowling on the Wii, and a pool table in the activity room. They also have a library which is a great addition. The room I am in is a good size, I have my own bathroom that is handy cap accessible, my own fridge, plenty of cupboards and my own coffee maker. I am very happy living in this community.

Very good supportive living facility.
This facility is very well maintained. The facilities are attractive and the faculty there are friendly. In my opnion this facility is more of an independent living facility. when fulll ther are only about CNA per 25 residents. If you have a loved one that needs a lot of care I would not recemend the GV. Again the VG is god at what it is designed to do. Be sure of the level of care needed and then visit the GV.

Janice is absolutely wonderful! She is going to meet my mom at Bethany Rehab to get to know her better. She is also going to set up a day for the bus from Grand Victorian to pick my mom up and bring her there to have lunch and check out some of the residents and activities. They also have a special running on moving in(it ends the end of the year), but there is no doubt that my mom would love it there.

A Place for Mom has scored Grand Victorian of Sycamore 8.6 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
