Anthem Memory Care

I couldn't find a better home for my wife than Charter Senior Living Glen Ellyn. From the caregivers and nurses, to the office staff and activity leaders, to the guys in the kitchen and maintenance - they do so much not just to provide care, but compassionate, attentive, and loving care. It is very reassuring to me. There is a good activity program to keep the residents engaged and add value to their days. No one is perfect but the few times there's been an issue it was quickly addressed and without any hesitation. They are pleasant and accommodating to work with. What really comes through is that they sincerely care about their residents and the families. They have been on top of the COVID-19 pandemic since the beginning, implemented rigorous protocols, and had no infections. And they still keep families in touch with their loved ones.

We’ve been fans of your community since you opened. Then when we needed a safe home for our Aunt, there you were! We are so blessed to have your entire staff as family! We truly do think of you as family. Your hearts are with each resident. You all are very professional, thorough, prompt and kind! The facility is kept very clean and attractive. You all stay on top of our Aunt’s care so well! Thank you!!! Thank you all for every thing you each do daily!

Everyone at Charter Senior living of Glen Ellyn is fantastic! Very caring, and loving. [names removed] are some of the best women I have ever known. All of the nurses are also great! My mother came from another facility that could care less about her. Charter works with all residents. They have a specific program called "I'm still here" and it is wonderful! I would recommend Charter to anyone who has a loved one with dementia or alzheimers. I am so glad my Mom is here. Thank you Charter

I would recommend the community based on the tour. I was impressed about the community on the tour. The community has several different activities for the residents. They even will take residents out into the community before and after COVID.

If I could give higher than 5 stars, I would. My stepmom, brothers, and myself were very hesitant to put my dad into a memory care facility. However, from the start, the Executive Director [name removed] was extraordinary and so supportive! She gave us time and information we needed to feel more comfortable. She is also great with the residents as she enthusiastically makes time to interact with the residents regularly. We genuinely feel like my dad has received the best care from everybody there. [name removed] and all of the employees—the office staff, the nurses, the caretakers, the activity personal, and even the chefs show a true interest and care in the residents and families. All of the employees work as a team and pitch in when necessary! When your loved one goes there, they are cared for in a gentle, adult manner and he/she gains new friends from other residents and the employees. As a family member, you are treated with respect and love; just as if you are one of their own personal family members. Since the maximum amount of residents is smaller than competitor’s, you get to know the other residents and their families quickly. It is a natural support group! The facility designed nicely and looks/feels like a home. It is tidy and clean. Thank you Charter of Glen Ellyn for making a tough journey easier! I would highly recommend Charter of Glen Ellyn!

I highly and unequivocally recommend Charter of Glen Ellyn. I found myself in the position of needing to move my mother again after four homes in four years (that had looked and sounded great) let us down, and I didn’t know where to turn. I spotted a memory place in the area that had a new name, so I scheduled a meeting with the outstanding executive director, [name removed] (she is the best—a natural with seniors and what they need!). From the minute I first stepped into Charter and met with [name removed] , I knew this marvelous place was the perfect place for my mom...and it really has been. The entire wonderful staff works together to meet the needs of my mom—they are the absolute best I’ve ever seen! I’ve really have never experienced anything like it. They read the background sheets and strive to make her welcome and comfortable. They care for medical needs—some I didn’t know she had. They keep me informed. Even the doctor runs things by me. They keep the residents busy with incredibly creative and legitimately fun things to do. Most importantly, they love my mom to pieces and make her feel special. My mom has found her happy forever home and I’m grateful.

It is really clean, they have a full nursing staff even overnight. They have a lot of activities, crafts, movie nights, We looked at about 12 places in the surrounding area and Porter Place really stood out. The rooms are good sized and the layout od the community is good.

I (virtually) toured Emerald Place when I was searching for the next accommodation of my mom, who has dementia. [name removed] and team were so thoughtful, helpful, and resourceful. While I ended up going with another more fitting option for my mom's unique needs, it was a close call with Emerald Place. Thank you [name removed] & team for making this difficult time a little bit less challenging :)

They do a great job and have been taking care of my mother for a year and a half now. We could not ask for a better place. We chose this community because we liked the attentiveness and caring way the staff take care of the resident's individual needs. I would recommend this community.

The staff at Greenridge is professional courteous and knowledgeable with memory care. My family member receives excellent and loving care. My loved one has resident in other communities and this has been the best community by far. I would recommend this community.

It is a well staffed and well managed community. it very is clean. The have been very responsive any time I have had a concern. I chose this community because when I walked in the the person who showed me around addressed almost all of the residents bey their first names and to me the shows caring and empathy. The have a wonderful chef and food is great. Without a doubt, I would recommend this community

I have no regrets for choosing Charter to take of my wife. The nurses, caregivers, and entire staff are very attentive and kind. They have a robust resident activity program. Building upkeep and cleanliness are excellent. Food service is quite good. On the few occasions when there's been a problem (no one's perfect) it's been recognized and quickly resolved.

My mother-in-law has resided at Harvester Place for over two years. She has Dementia, and has become progressively worse. The care she has received has been outstanding. They not only care for the body, but the mind. We, as her family, are kept apprised of her condition. This has been especially important during these past several months while we've been going through the Covid-19 pandemic. Mom's been having trouble dealing with not seeing anyone, and phone calls seem to agitate her. Everyone in the family calls her, but she doesn't seem to understand why we're not coming to see her. It's a difficult time. I really appreciate all the caring the people at Harvester provide for her.

Wonderful, caring staff who looks out for each individual and their needs. Along with the size, layout and cleanliness of the facility, this is five star living for my Mom.

I moved my aunt into Harvester a little over a year ago. Her best friend was already there and we were able to get their suites next to each other! The first several months, my aunt had a lot of medical needs and trips back and forth to the hospital and rehab and then back to Harvester. The staff was amazing with both my aunt and helping me to navigate this new territory for me! They communicated continually with myself and the hospital and rehab center so the transitions for my aunt went smoothly. When she returned to Harvester, it was definitely a 'homecoming' and all the staff welcomed her back and helped her to adjust. The atmosphere there is very open, friendly, caring and loving. I am extremely happy with Harvester!

The staff at Greenridge are caring, kind and competent. The place is very clean and thoughtfully set up for the population it serves. Greenridge has done an amazing job navigating activities and communication between residents and loved ones while conscientously following safety precautions during the pandemic. Greenridge has proven to give care to the residents as if they are their loved ones.

I have been experience with many facilities and this is one of the best. Their approach to the safety and well being of the patients is second to none. During this COVID time the administrator has lead the charge with the maintenance/housekeeping staff along with the rest of the staff have done and over the top job of keeping the patients safe and happy. This is evident by the 0% of COVID cases that Porter Place has had!!! Very rare at this time. The administrator has stayed on top of all the new information regarding the virus and has been working 24 hours a day to make sure everyone is safe. This is the type of person I want overseeing the place where my family goes. Also the nursing staff is calling family 1 time a week to give families an update on their loved one when no one can visit and are available during all shifts and happy to fields any questions families may have. Activities has been doing Skype calls with residents and families and recently had a parade to keep people in though with their family. But what is even more heart warming is that on a daily basis all staff treat each and very person like a family member of their own. Highly recommended.

During this difficult time for everyone i am so pleased that the staff are taking such wonderful care of my mother, the posts show how well each person is doing, the weekly updates are wonderful and thank you for the car parade for families. i am confident that my loved one is safe and happy and that means so much to me right now. cant wait to visit and hug you all.
