Encore has proved to be a good fit for my mother. She has been a resident for 5 1/2 yrs. and has been treated like a member of a close family. Everyone is always friendly, caring, and loving. Smiles and hugs are in abundance. Well balanced meals as well as a variety of daily menus are wonderful. The maintenance man keeps the facility in tip-top shape. There is always some sort of activity going on as well as memory games. All of this is due to the exemplary leadership of the director and her administrative assistants.

Our family had an in person tour with Encore at South Barrington and we thought it was a very nice tour experience. The lady that took us around the community was very friendly and helpful. There were just a few reason we did not pick this community for our loved one - the room they had available was a two person room so our loved one would of had to share it with another resident and we did not think that would work. There are bathrooms in the rooms but not showers, so the showers would be in a communal area. Also at the time we went it was mainly women, we saw very few men there. However we have heard very good things about their meals .
Response from Encore at South Barrington
March 13, 2023Hello, Thank you for sharing your experience. Our community offers 6 different apartment styles, including companion suites as well as private apartments. Some apartments have a shower and others do not include a shower. We do our best to match the right apartment with what is most important to a family based on availability and the family's budget for their loved one. We appreciate you touring our community!
We like the location of this community it is convenient for our family to go and visit, and after visiting many other places the overall value here is about right in the middle its not the most expensive but not the cheapest. We really like the community as a whole and based on the experience we have had so far we would recommend Encore at South Barrington to other families .

Trusting the care of your loved one to someone is never easy however, Encore's staff and facilities have allowed us to have some peace. Encore's staff, residents, and their families have truly made it feel like home for our mom. Safety and cleanliness are a priority at the facility. The directors and the head of nursing are always available for an email or a phone call. The small setting keeps our mom from getting lost in the shuffle as well. We chose this facility 4 years ago with the hopes of our mom to be able to age in place and they have allowed us that luxury. Grateful for this team of professionals.

We had looked at facilities in the area and just could not settle on one place until we found, now named, Encore! The staff made it all easy and comfortable during an emotional time. When we walked in We knew it was the place. Small setting, the same people around, they keep an eye on everyone, keep them entertained with great staff. They let the residents feel like they are safe with them, It takes a big load of the family! Mom is happy and we are happy! Thank you for all everyone at Encore! We are blessed!

After touring other facilities we would find them ok but had lingering doubts. With Encore in South Barrington there was no doubt. Once inside we were greeted and toured the residence and felt that this is the perfect place to care for our family member. I cannot say enough how kind and caring the team at Encore has been. This is a team that works together to ensure the safety and comfort of the residents. I highly recommend Encore when you need to make this very difficult decision.

Encore South Barrington has been a welcoming environment in every regard. The building is modern, cheery and reminiscent of a hotel. The staff is friendly and treated her like family. It is such a relief knowing she has excellent medical care onsite. After visiting a number of Memory Care units, Encore provided the best value and a wonderful first impression.

We picked this community, because due to recommendations by A Place for Mom, and the smaller size of the facility. We have been very impressed by the staff, [names removed] have been extremely helpful in making my loved one and ourselves comfortable. We really are happy with our loved one here.

We have had a great experience at Encore at South Barrington. They are very good with my mom and providing care that we could not at home. They keep the residents busy with a regimented activities schedule which is very good for her. The staff are excellent and I like that I see a lot of the same staff so it is consistent rather than having new faces every day. I would definitely recommend this facility to others looking

Very friendly staff. They personally met with my mother to evaluate her case and she was admitted very quickly. The place is very clean and they seem to have a lot of activities available for the residents. They have been very responsive to my requests for paperwork, etc.

Staff was very supportive and engaging when my 89 year old mother moved there(and still are). They followed through with all my concerns and requests. Caretakers have a positive attitude. Staff communicates promptly with me. The environment is clean, bright and comfortable.

After helping care for another loved one in a memory facility, I was pleasantly surprised by how cleaned and well maintained the facility is. The staff is awesome and very attentive so far, our mother has only been there a few weeks. The nurses are very educated and experienced in memory care, the physical therapist that works with our mom( [name removed]) is phenomenal! The nurses assistant that help her shower and dressed and ready for bed are also very good. As stated previously we hope this continues for the rest of her stay at Encore and this type of care is maintained throughout her stay.

We really like the people at Revere Court and we really like the facility. Unfortunately the staff to resident ratio is 9:1, so it is not enough care for my loved one and she has fallen quite a bit. We are going to have to find another place that is able to offer more one on one care for her. We really appreciate the place and the staff, we just wish it was possible for her to have more monitoring.
After an awful experience I was hesitant to move my husband into another facility, but my daughter suggested we check out Revere Court of South Barrington and I'm glad we did. [name removed] and the staff have exceeded my expectations. I was really impressed by the facility, the rooms and the interaction the staff has with the residents. I finally feel my husband has found a home.

From the moment I walked into Revere Court I had a good feeling, I saw several residents in the lobby playing bingo and a memory game. When [name removed] (who has been wonderful) gave us a tour she explained how every hall in the facility has been decorated with a different theme to make it easy to remember. Most important my dad has is happy, I can FaceTime him though a "portal" they bring to his room so he lets me know that he is treated well and enjoys the food.

Mom was in an assisted living community elsewhere, she stayed in her room and felt that people there were just not friendly. We noticed her decline in communication, found her sleeping most of the day, mentally declining and wearing depends. We felt she needed a different type of care that catered more to her needs with declining memory. We toured communities and found Revere Court of South Barrington to be the one that truly cared and knew their residents. We saw this first hand while touring! We moved her in to RCSB and they immediately welcomed her into the community by getting her involved and making sure she was included. They asked if they could reevaluate her medications and they adjusted them. She no longer sits in her room, she does not wear depends anymore, has made friends and loves the food. She tells us she is very happy there and she is much more communicative. The staff is amazing and are always willing to help her and us no matter what! Revere Court is the perfect fit.

After interviewing four Memory Care facilities in our area, we found the “perfect” home for our Mom at Revere Court of South Barrington. We were welcomed and provided with a very thorough presentation of the quality of care, many services and personal attention that Revere Court provides for each resident. The entire staff is friendly and goes out of their way to build personal relationships with each resident. Our primary objective was to find an environment that would keep our Mom active, engaged, and feel part of a family. She no longer feels like the “new kid on the block.” Revere Court is beautifully decorated from each resident’s personal living space to the various recreational areas. Communication is key and Revere Court does an awesome job of keeping family members informed with important updates. Most importantly, Mom is being well taken care of, having fun and receiving the best quality of life that Revere Court can provide.
