Recent reviews of Independent Living in Oak Park, IL
Oak Trace a CCRC in Downers Grove, IL
4.8

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.

The Memory Care staff was always polite, friendly, and always willing to assist in my mother's needs. My family and I are very satisfied with how my mother was cared for.

We really like how easy it is when it comes to communicating with the staff members. Although our loved one does not always participate in the activities we do see plenty of things going on which is nice. Based on our experience we would recommend Belmond Village Buffalo Grove to other families .
