I moved in and liked it so much I bought a second apartment for my mother! The staff is the most caring I have ever encountered and the facility is top-notch. Hope to meet you soon.

We chose Elevate South Holland because they were more affordable, patient, and they were friendly and gave us the time that we needed. The staff here went above and beyond their job description and were very accomodating. The apartments are nice and suitable for one person. I would absolutely recommend to others looking.
