My apartment has a nice bedroom, living room, and bathroom. I also have a nice kitchen where I can fix my meals and bake bread and cookies. I have always felt safe here at the Timbers. The staff have always been friendly and helpful to me.
They're short of help, all the way around. That's the main challenge. Sometimes it's hard to find a nurse on the nursing floor. But I really like the assisted living building. They're very good with their activities and keeping their people up to date on things. I had one relative move to the wellness center from assisted living, and I would not do that if you can avoid it. They don't have the activities, and they're kind of isolated in wellness.
Our loved one was on the memory care side and the staff members were extremely hands on and gave our loved one great personal attention. The permanent staff at Cedarhurst are outstanding, very attentive and we could ask them questions at any time and they were always there and just have been wonderful. They have a lot of memory games for the residents and there are always movies being played. We would recommend Cedarhurst of Naperville to other families.
