Anthem Memory Care

We had full time 24-7 home care for my mom for three years because she wanted to be at home and we wanted that for her. We had problem after problem with home care givers from leaving her alone in the car while they went to a store or visited friends to [Removed] to outright [Removed] (for which we are still going to court). The problem with home care is that there is very little accountability other than the occasional visit from an agency supervisor. I visited every day and we still had many problems. We couldn't be there 24 hours a day to watch the caregiver and it became unsafe. Enter Autumn Leaves of Glen Ellyn! Mom has been there since October and it is the BEST thing we could have done for her. The facility is laid out so well and it's light, bright and nicely decorated. I feel happy when I walk through the front door to visit my mom. All of the people who work at Autumn Leaves are kind and caring and they get to know all of the residents. She has three healthy meals every day plus snacks and we know that she is being properly cared for and she is treated like the individual that she is. Also, a nurse on duty 24 hours a day has gone a long way in helping me to sleep at night. My mom really enjoys being around all of the people at Autumn Leaves. I believe that her being around so many people has been instrumental in her happiness. Even with all of the home care problems it was still a difficult decision to move mom into a memory care facility, even one as outstanding as Autumn Leaves. However, 6 months later, we can see that it was the very best option for mom. I actually wish we had moved her in at least a year sooner than we did. If you are looking for memory care for your loved one you can't go wrong with Autumn Leaves of Glen Ellyn.

The quality of service is great. The staff & facility are awesome!! The staff gives genuine care & they are very knowledgeable. This facility is always seeking to grow & improve in all areas

Mom loves the place

Everyone is friendly, comforting, and very patient with my dad.

Willowbrook Place is a fabulous memory care facility!!!! They have the best activity staff of anywhere we have ever visited. They have musical guests on a regular basis as well as games and other fantastic activities, multiple times a day, for the residents. The staff is beyond compare. Each and every one is compassionate and cares for the residents as if they are their friends or family. [removed]

Very nice facility, very clean, great food and the care is excellent

I cannot say enough about the kindness and loving care of the administration and everyday staff of this "home" for my Dad. I've toured and looked at a number of places, and its not good out there! Morningside is 200% better, and they actually care for my Dad. Enough said.

[Removed]-very compassionate & helpful. The complex itself is new/well laid out/plenty of beds right now. My experience with an administrator who gave my tour was not good (IMHO she shouldn't be allowed to interact w/the public). Near I-55.

[Removed] was engaging,solicitous. Easy to find & get to, bright, light, clean. Great value. Found residents active & engaged; enjoyed carolers & their families while we were there.Looked at studios w/showers.Many activities; safety for our family member while also being able to enjoy walks through the facility (which actually felt more like a beautiful home). If your family member has a stage 2 or greater wound it cannot be accomodated there & must be healed at another facility before moving there.One of our top choices.

Lovely, lovely facility. Enjoyed a guided tour from Audrey. Autumn Leaves is small and cozy. A perfect fit for my Mom. Can't say enough good things about this community. It's just about as close to home as you can get. It's awesome.

Toured Harvester Place ahead of schedule. Lovely facility with an awesome staff. Special thanks to Theresa [Removed] for the guided tour this morning.

I could never say enough great things about this place, I have been very thankful for everything they have done for my dad and the great quality of care they have provided for him. He always tells me he feels like he is living in a hotel with all of the services he receives from the staff. They are always attentive to his needs and are always looking out for him especially since he is a fall risk. He has gained a healthy amount of weight and received lots of nutrition from all of the delicious meals they serve throughout the day. I would defiantly recommend this facility to anyone interested in a five staff establishment.

We chose this facility, the founders club was a big draw (saving us 500.00) and it is brand new and very nice, the price was in our bracket, we will see how the respite stay goes for a month before signing contact to commit.

It's a wonderful place and the care is exceptional. I like that it's set up like an assisted living with 24 hour care. They have their private room with their furniture and it gives a homey atmosphere. I also like that it does not have a huge dining room. There are 3 villages for the different stages of dementia. The eat from a cafe where the meals are prepared and brought to them. It eliminates the noise and all the people. My mom's village has 12-15 residents and very calm. The community is beautiful and every staff is highly trained for dementia. We are learning daily and they are helping us walk through it. At times she has outburst and the ensure us she won't be asked to leave, they understand these behaviors, I was so fortunate to have been referred to them.

It was a difficult decision placing my mom into memory care, but a necessary one. The management team & care staff have done an outstanding job helping not only my mom, but her entire family transition and settle in. They helped make one of the most difficult decisions, an easier one!

The Morningside Place is holding a place for us, my mother will be back but right now she is in a nursing home. She has requested to go back to this community once she is better because she was pleased with the care she received here. The food at this place is good. The staff here really take very good care of everyone. We definitely recommend this place.

I come here as a physical therapist to work with some of the residents on an as needed basis. The staff are very nice and knowledgeable about each resident. There is usually an activity going on, and each time I come, there are different things the resident have worked on around the building. They work hard to make it 'home' for the residents, and it shows. There are picture frames around the facility with each resident from various times, just like a house, which I think is a nice touch. [Removed] is usually right at the entrance to welcome guests and family members with a smile.

Clarity Pointe offers a caring and calm environment for individuals with dementia. The staff, in particular, the CNA's are amazingly kind and caring with the residents. They pay attention to individual needs and personalities. In my opinion, Clarity Pointe provides the best memory care in the area.

I am very pleased with this community. The care staff are respectful towards my husband. The entire staff seem to enjoy their work. There is always happy chatter and smiles. The management know everyone's name and are very active in the community. They are on top of things. They offer outings every Tuesday as well as other activities. They have a chef that makes some really good food. This is a lovely new community and I would recommend it.
