HarborChase of Long Grove

We toured many different assisted livings and memory cares in the area and this was the one we felt was the best fit. My mom is thriving there and we love how great all the staff is. Its clean and the food is amazing. The care staff are really attentive their residents and are very caring. I highly recommend!

Improvements: a call button was not issued immediately - this took two months. Once our loved one was places on hospice, things did get better with the care. There are some communication issues between staff members. It took them three months to get our loved ones meal plan straightened out. Nighttime staff is a bit inconsistent. However when our loved one passed away, the staff were very kind to our family. If something wasn't ok I heard it from all of my siblings. Very stressful. I get the sense that there was a bit of overselling.

I have had a great experience with HarborChase Long Grove. My loved one enjoys their time here. There are three meals a day served to the residents, and they have several choices to choose from. My loved one enjoys the meals and socializing with other residents. Overall, I would recommend HarborChase Long Grove to others for their loved ones.

This place was recommended by PFM and it's been difficult since day 1. The move in-never even cleaned the apartment,lots of promises never kept. Pressured to commit. Lost our Moms bed & gave it to another patient (placed it in a storage somewhere and could not find it). The food was good but they have lost the entire staff since March. New director is MIA all the time. She started Oct, been on three vacations so far. Was not present during severe cold when residents lost heat. Provided old space heaters that had no safety trigger. No food service and no heat for three days. Entire staff we knew has quit. Agency nurses run the place and while head of nursing is nice, she is overwhelmed. Food selection is nil. Mother has COVID, they did not deliver breakfast until 11 am after we bothered them several times and it was cold. Cost is high for poor care, no heat and limited food choices. We have tried to work with them but they cannot deliver. Front staff nice but overwhelmed.

Great place for the money. Clean new decent staff

The facility was clean, staff is nice, nurse and aides are professional, and they have many activities for the residents.

We chose HarborChase of Long Grove because they talked about a men's club that they had - most facilities are predominantly women so that was the driving reason that we chose this facility. The transition could have been done much better - there was an extreme circumstance with management and there was no back up plan. What they told us would be done, was not done so that could have gone smoother. Overall we have been pleased and would recommend them to others.

Above average facility overall. Good to have memory care and assisted living under one roof. Staff turnover is very high. Night shift staff in memory care is sub contract staff with little training. Assisted living staff are employees and much better trained. Very friendly staff. Everyone makes a point of getting to know residents by name.

Excellent care, responsive and communicates well (especially important to me as I live 750 miles away). They always treat me well when I visit and know my name!

HarborChase is very clean, the people that take care of my mother are great. It's the best place for my mother. The only problem I have is with the people who are running it. I'd give them 0 out of 5 stars. In February they had a flood and it destroyed all of my mothers stuff. I asked them, "Where is my moms stuff?", and they said, "We don't know". They haven't settled anything. They gave her a bed, but its not her bed. When you ask someone about it, like the director and the sales people, they say they will get back to you, but no one calls you back. The director gave me his number and said if I have any questions I could give him a call, but every time you call him, the mailbox is full. Again, the staff and workers who take care of my mother are excellent, but management is awful. I'm ready to get a lawyer and find out what I should do because I'm not getting anywhere with them. She had things that belonged to her mother. Sure, they gave her clothing, but it's someone else's clothing. When I ask about it they just say, "We will get back to you", but no one ever does. I'm sure they've already had to settle the damages with their insurance. We bought a long coat for my mother that was [price removed] because she moved in while it was cold out, and now she doesn't have that coat. I also spent [price removed] for her dentures, but they say they don't know where her dentures are either. Like I already said, the workers are great but I never get an answer from management. Out of all the places, this was the best and it's why we chose them. However, they promise you all these things and all these answers, but they don't follow through. I do like that my mother is always dressed, clean and well groomed with painted nails. That's very important as the care provided here is 200% better than the previous place she lived.

I have been very pleased with the care my mom is receiving at HarborChase of Long Grove. The facility is between my brother and I which is nice. I went to tour the facility and I liked that it was open and decorated nicely. There were plenty of spaces where you can visit and there was no weird smells either. The one thing presented to me that means a lot is the doctor on site really digs into the medicines, so right away he noticed mom was deficient in vitamin b12 and now she gets a monthly injection for that. They have been really good about presenting reasons that mom needs to move up in levels of care and they work their best with her. Overall I would highly recommend to others looking.

Particularly with dementia, I have never such a caring group of people that want to honor the residents life and preserve their dignity. The staff were patient and kind, know what they are doing and how to handle all the variations of dementia. In my Dad's case, he had underlying health conditions, and finding the type of care we needed was tough. They saved his life and his brain. I cannot say it enough. This is such an underserved population. This place was an absolute godsend.

HarborChase is absolutely beautiful, it is expensive but completely worth it. It is very clean, and the sales coordinator while we were touring was amazing. She was on top of everything, she was always available and was great at explaining anything we had questions on.

I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. They are good at getting things set up for your loved one. The community is willing to assist your loved ones getting settled into the community as well. The food is good for the residents.

HarborChase has been a great experience so far, we have been very impressed with everything. The staff members are extremely nice, and their onsite physician has just been wonderful. We do think the value for cost is amazing, and the rooms there are exceptionally nice. According to our loved one the meals are not so good, they are coming around to like it and they good thing is they can order other things if they don't like what they are serving. However we ate there a couple times ourselves and we thought it was nice food and good portions for seniors.

HarborChase community has been great, they are very accommodating to our loved one, and have been very helpful in regards to our loved ones health. We have noticed from a far that there really isn't on person to get a hold of for answers, you kind of have to go through multiple people. However, they are still very kind when we speak with them and the community is bright and cheerful.

We chose HarborChase of Long Grove because they had availability quickly when we were needing it and when they contacted me I was just really pleased with them. The room sizes are great as well as the value for the money, it is excellent. I would tell others the staff are amazing, they are always more than willing to help. I did see the food yesterday and it looked really good. I would recommend to others looking.

We chose HarborChase of Long Grove because of the fact that they had no covid incidences and also he needed 2 person assist which is hard to find in the area. The room sizes here were good. The food was really good, they were chef prepared meals. They provided a lot of activities for residents to participate in. I would recommend them to others looking.

I'm not happy with the fact they seem to be short staffed. They are allowing visitors for residents to see family. I am having to clean my loved one's room, and this is something the staff should be doing. What is the assisted living for this community, I keep asking myself. My loved one doesn't enjoy the food. The people at the front desk are wonderful. The staff communication with the family is horrible! They have an activities schedule for the residents to choose from.
