My 98 year old father spent the last 2 1/2 years of his life in Canterbury Inn. The last 6 months were under Hospice care with CI nursing staff working hand-in-hand with the hospice nurses. Every person working at CI was so caring and attentive to Dad's needs and kept him so comfortable to the very end. Family was always kept informed and we can't praise Canterbury Inn enough. Thank you for Dad's outstanding care.

We were impressed!

We dropped in, unannounced, to visit a friend who recently moved into Northbrook Inn and were delighted to see the beautifully appointed decor, our friend's large room with great natural light, and the homey friendly surroundings. Our friend reported enjoying an in-house operatic performance given by music students from Northwestern a few days prior. And the staff person who greeted us shared details of recent conversations she had had with our friend. When my time comes, I hope there's an opening at the Northbrook Inn for me!

The hardest, yet the best decision I could have made!

I want to share my journey with anyone caring for and considering placing their loved one. Placing a parent, my father, was and continues to be the hardest decision I made in my life!! Dementia and Alzheimer's not only affects the afflicted, it affects those closest to the person just as much if not more. I say this because the patient has no real grasp of what is going on and you the caretaker are stepping in and making decisions on behalf of them and you may question and even have guilt over placing your loved one and everything else that comes along with your decision. It has taken me a little over a year to come to grips with placing my father and I believe I will live with some type of guilt throughout my life. What made things easier for me was seeing my father out of bed where he would lay in bed for days at a time at home. To see him sitting and conversing with others his age was wonderful. Seeing the color in his face come back due to eating three meals a day where at home I was cursed at for trying to get him out bed to eat with us. To see him get a shower regularly unlike at home where he may have showered twice a month because that was yet another fight and where I would be cursed at for even trying to get him into the water! At home I was certain that one day I would come into his bedroom and find that he passed, he was not living in his own home, he was just existing. When it became more than apparent that my daughter and I could no longer care for him because neither of us were doing him justice by keeping in him in his own home, I was emotionally beaten up by him and had to keep reminding myself that its the disease speaking, not my father but I couldn't make the separation! My daughter and I cared for him for over 8 years with no outside help or any help from other family members, no one came to visit him and he was on lock down because we feared he would walk away during the night while we slept, he almost burnt the house down on more than one occasion, it was bad! You become selfish and want to keep them in their home but sometimes that just can't happen as in our case! The last doctor's visit I took my father to I was told by the doctor, your father has never looked better, his color is great, his blood pressure is considerably down, his weight is down, his medication was adjusted and he praised the care he is receiving! My father calls Sterling Commons home now and every week when he comes to our home for dinner he'll say after sometime, "Can someone take me home now?" To know that he is okay makes us ok! The family members that never came around or understand the disease criticize my decision and stopped speaking to me which makes it difficult because you love them but at the end of the day I have to remember that Sterling Commons made my father pleasant to be around again and actually gave him back his life and surely are extending his time here with the care he is receiving! I hope this helps anyone struggling with placing a loved one and remember that it will never be easy but it's the most humane thing you can do for them! God Bless!

Everything we found at Park Wood was perfect. Starting with [Removed], very knowledgeable, she answered all of our questions with complete honesty and she made us feel totally comfortable. She always made herself available to us and really made us feel secure in our decision to bring our family member to Park Wood. Thank you to [Removed] who helped make the move in easy. The community is very clean, centrally located, lots of amenities and all of the staff are so friendly, helpful and caring. We also wanted to thank[Removed], Senior Living Advisor at " a Place for Mom " for helping our family with this transition. Thank you all, [Removed]

Thankful for Creekside

My Dad has been at Creekside for 14 months. I am so thankful for the staff. It takes a special person to do for others what a loved one can no longer do for themselves. I have learned so much as Dad progresses through Alzheimers. It is a difficult process. Whenever I have had questions about any phase or struggle that dad may be having, the director and the staff have always given me the time I need to process. They have listen to me cry, answered my same questions over and over. Always patient. Always working with me as dad's situation has changed. I live 100 miles away and can't be at Creekside as often as I would like to. I know my dad is being well cared for. His room never smells, he is clean and well fed. There is no place like home, but when a loved one can no longer be home, Creekside is a lovely place.

Amazing place!!

I am so grateful for this place and everything they have done for my husband while he has been in there care. He has made a 75 percent improvement since making the move into this community. He is coming out of his room and participating in many activities as well as making it down to the dinning room for meal times. He is keeping up with his hygiene on his own and working on his communication every day. There is a day and night difference on how things have changed for him. We all are very happy and I would highly recommend it to anyone.
