Great snacks and drinks and a cozy fireplace made for a fun, casual and informative way for prospective individuals and couples to see if the Brookdale Glen Ellyn could be the next great home for them. It was easy for both my parents and I to talk of the many amenities and excellent staff, food, surroundings and support that is offered at the Brookdale Glen Ellyn.

They perform as a team of dedicated, caring of individuals each doing his/her job to provide a lifestyle that gives the residents freedom and support to enjoy their lives to the fullest. They provide a range of activities both in-house and outside, delicious meals all in a comfortable friendly environment.

At the time my mom was in rehab and we expected her to live her life at the beautiful community near us in Glen Ellyn. We already loved the place because my husband’s grandmother had lived there and my daughter had her first job as a server in the restaurant at Brookdale. When we walked in the place, once again, after years, it was just as beautiful and we were greeted with love and kindness, and were excited to be moving our mom there. We moved all of moms belongings in. Unfortunately, my mom passed away before she had a chance to enjoy the lovely studio. It didn’t matter, they still treated us and her as if she had lived there, and we were family to them and we had so much support and love. It was overwhelming and we will never forget that.","reviewerDisplayName":"Myra N","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"The staff is always there and willing to help","reviewContent":"I just recently transferred from Independent to Assisted Living. During my transition meeting I didn’t have a chance to ask a question because the staff for every department were there and answered every question possible. My move went well and the move in coordinator was kind and helped set up my TVs and WiFi. Everyone is very friendly. The service is excellent. And the food is good. The staff is always there and willing to help me.","reviewerDisplayName":"Jim ","experienceTypeId":1,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a current/former resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Should have moved in sooner!","reviewContent":"My parents were 96 when they moved in.\nI wanted them physically closer to us and for me to be able to pop in to see them.\nI wanted them to embrace community living since they were struggling to maintain independence and still required each other to accomplish that.\nThe general facility is extremely clean and welcoming. Nothing to suggest that this is an older residents home.\nFood- [name removed] the chef is willing to work with dietary needs but I’ve snuck some of the soup and it’s delicious!!! No complaints on the menu.\nBut it’s the staff that makes it home. On assisted living, the nurses are amazing. They field calls from every angle and continue to be kind! Even calls that you would cringe at- get answered without making the residents feel bad. I’m so grateful to you ladies!\nHousekeeping- a real sweetheart! \nWe just lost Dad and are downsizing and [names removed] are making every effort to make the journey easier.\nI’m very grateful to have found such a good home for them.","reviewerDisplayName":"Eileen S","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Friendly Place","reviewContent":"I like the food here. Can sometimes be noisy sometimes when they bus tables but servers are friendly. Overall it’s a friendly place. The chef makes the best soup but it can run out because a lot of people order it and with the shortage of everything. I like playing Bocce Ball and going to some other programs. The staff are helpful and the service is good. My vision is getting worse, so having the magnifier in the library is nice. It helps me get out of my apartment too. My wife’s vision isn’t good either but the bus takes us to Wheaton Eye Clinic. We found out about the community through the Glen Ellyn Park District because we helped call Bingo and were involved for many years. Brookdale Glen Ellyn (used to be The Meadows) would bring us a big plate of cookies!","reviewerDisplayName":"Rudy D","experienceTypeId":1,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a current/former resident or client"}],"parentOrgReview":{"name":"Brookdale","slug":"brookdale-29","averageReviewScoreDisplay":8.7,"communityCount":644,"reviewCount":27185}},"communityName":"Brookdale Glen Ellyn","leadgenCompleted":false}
