Encore

The entire community is an atmosphere of caring, kindness and tranquility. The staff go above and beyond caring for the residents. They are attentive and quick to respond to resident needs (assistance with wheelchair, etc.) They the keep the residents engaged throughout the day in a multitude of activities that are appropriate for where the residents are physically and mentally. Everyone is so kind. They treat family members of the residents like family - every request and concern is met with reciprocal care. The facility is beautifully appointed and feels warm and comfortable. It is very difficult making the hard choice to put a family member in a memory care facility. But Encore at South Barrington makes you feel like you made the best choice. I know my mom is safe and comfortable.

Mom was brought there having dementia and stage four cancer. The staff has been nothing but wonderful to her and our family, keeping us update on how her day was , how meds are being taken. I staff is used to different changes and are very empathetic and knowledgeable which puts comfort in our hearts.we are there for mom but find our selfs visiting a few different residents everybody likes a visit. Sad thing tomorrow your visit was new and just exciting as day before for them. Dinners look great also.

[name removed] from Waterford Place reached out to me to set up a tour for my uncle. She was extremely nice and flexible as to when I could come. She was amazing with helping me once I decided Waterford was what I wanted for my uncle as well. She walked me through everything I needed and was even supportive of me and the difficulties I faced getting him to Wisconsin as he was being moved from North Carolina. [name removed] still continues to be a great point of contact for me and I'm forever grateful for her kindness and efforts to make sure everything is a smooth transition for my uncle.

My dad moved in about 5 months ago and I am very pleased with the care he has been receiving. The staff genuinely cares for it’s residents and has been incredibly accommodating to dad and very understanding of not only his memory care but his numerous needs. Kind is an understatement of the entire staff who not only desire to know the residents, but they are very welcoming of the family and friends who visit. Dad loves the food and there are always plenty of activities to keep him occupied throughout the day. It was a heartbreaking day when Dad moved out of the family home, but it is heartwarming to know he is in a safe, warm, and welcoming place he now calls home!

My dad recently moved from another memory care facility. The staff here has been a million times more attentive and caring. They actually do the needed cares and more. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking.

My experience with Hickory Park was great..[name removed] , the PR person couldn't have been better...the apartment was lovely...very clean and well cared for. My church friend,(88 years old,) was happy with her experience.

First impression when I walked through the door, it was clean very open did not look like an assisted-living situation. The staff were wonderful. The apartments were great.

The staff was very informative. They answered every question we had, the best they could. They made the move in process very easy on everyone.

A Place For Mom helped us find this facility and we were grateful we did. It's super clean, has activities all day long and the staff is exceptional! We have a strong sense of comfort knowing my mom is so well taken care of. I would highly recommend Encore!

From the first day I walked into Encore at South Barrington, I felt a warm homelike feeling. All of the staff members are very compassionate and enjoy enriching the journey of each resident. I would recommend this community to anyone who is looking for memory care for their loved one.

Encore at South Barrington is truly a gem. They have a compassionate team that provides outstanding care for their residents. The community is vibrant with lots of activity. I love the smaller home-like environment and warm atmosphere. Each resident has a care plan that is specific to their needs.

When we moved our Mother into Bellevue like anyone, we were not sure if she would be happy changing to a very different environment and life style from where she came from. Living alone for many years it was going to be a very big adjustment. When she saw her apartment and new surroundings she was going to now live in, she had a big smile along with a new sense of relief that her new life was going to be less work and for sure a lot less stress. Now after a couple years she has settled in and enjoys her new place and now calls it her home.. If ever she has a question, problem, anything that she needs assistant with, the staff are there and more then wiling to find a solution. She is happy and as a family WE ARE TOO!! We highly recommend Bellevue to anyone who is seeking some comfort and piece of mind for a family member who is ready to give up all the stress of daily life, to now settle into a safe, happy, and simple life style which is well deserved and necessary.

When I ask for help the answer is Always yes and if they are busy with someone else they will get to us as soon as they can Carolyn and I rate the food with an A and their listed activities as A++ The people in charge will always listen to our concerns and if we need help will give us great advise.

The facility has been a great success. The staff is great. Been a good fit for my parents and our family . We are so happy that Bellevue assisted and independent was available so that my parents can be together.

I recently moved my father to Shawano Place. The Administrator did an amazing job with getting the admission process completed fast, after my family and I made a last minute decision. She went above and beyond, what we expected. My father has been there for a month now, and loves the place. Thanks Shawano Place.

The facility is great the apartments are well appointed. There is always activities going on, but the best part is the staff. They’re friendly and kind, and genuinely invested in the lives of the residents. We visit regularly and are always impressed by the attention to detail- from the seasonal decorations to the way that the staff members interact with the residents. Always options for meals. Additional services such as laundry and medication management can be added on as necessary. We recommend Bellevue Senior Living to family and friends.

This is a great place for my 84 year old father. Renewed social life, better health and safety than living at home alone. Still has his independence in a perfect size apartment. Staff is always friendly! He’s been a resident for over two years and truly enjoys his new home and interacting with staff and residents.

Staff is wonderful and reassuring. Always something going on keeping my parents busy. The menus is well thought out and varied. Have to admit I was a little leary of my parents going there but they have nothing but great things to say about it and transition from home owners to senior living without any hiccups

staff is observant, mindful and caring. issues are resolved quickly. food is good and plentiful. transportation provided to appointments or shopping. great facility. would recommend to any new client.
