Spectrum Retirement

My mom passed in January. The place was awesome for her. What we really liked about Palos Heights is the friendliness of the staff and residents. Yes, based on the experience we have had so far, we would definitely recommend this community to other families.

The overall experience has been excellent and the community is very clean. The staff are interactive and very kind and they provide excellent quality of care. The meals are very good and they have great options. The have great activities as well and the value for cost is good. I would most definitely recommend this community to other families based on our experience we have had.

Most of the top officers have recently been replaced with new, very competent people. I am hopeful that some positive changes are underway. New Director of Sales: [name removed]. Executive Director [name removed]. And wonderful new Director of Entertainment & Programming, [name removed]. Food Service is under major overhaul; both cooks fired. My personal observation is that the Corporation needs to purchase from a better food supplier. NOT CISCO! Cheap cuts of meat, fruits & veggies that are NOT fresh ; too many pre-prepared (frozen) entrees that are simply pitiful! Meats too tough to cut with a knife (full of fat & gristle). Too easy to attempt to hide or disguise... a new sous chef is being brought in in addition to a new regular chef. I just received this information today. The facility is kept in pristine condition; everything very clean and well- maintained. The grounds have lovely gardens with flowers maintained year-round too! Activities are expanding & becoming more creative. We have a pool: no water aerobics or exercises offered. Why? Too hot? Too much liability? Oh well, we have excellent OT & PT offered in our second floor gym! I am benefitting from them; have graduated from a wheelchair back to my walker!! Hooray!

What we like the most about Crestview Senior Living is the convenience, no changes. We would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had so far.

Everything so far has been great. Great overall experience, perfect size place and not too fancy for mom's taste. Everything seems clean as far as I can tell. Staff is friendly to mom and the family. Mom seems well taken care of and happy. Mom never is late or misses a meal, or complains. Mom is very active at Southview! Loves bingo, balloon volleyball and drumming. And I love the LifeLoop app so I can see how active she is during the week. I feel like we are getting a great value for the cost!

Superb personalized care. They made my mom happy & feel like she was home. She passed way but we felt she received the best care possible.

My experience with Shawnee Hills has been great. My dad is very happy there. I chalk part of this up to the many fun activities they have. Their Activity’s Director [name removed] goes above and beyond in creating fun activities for the residents. One evening recently my dad and I were on a dinner date and [name removed] actually called him to see if he was okay because she had not seen him that day. Wow I was just so happy to know that someone was checking on him when I’m not around! [name removed] has hosted parties at Halloween and Christmas for the residents and their families and recently did a nice celebration for the fathers on the weekend after Father’s Day. We are so blessed to have [name removed]! She is truly exceptional at her position and a sweet and caring person to boot! Thank you [name removed] for your wonderful care!

I would say the staff and administration are outstanding

Our Mom has been at Westbrook for 4 months and we see the attentive staff helping all the residents. Westbrook is very clean and the staff always makes the residents feel at home. Many activities for all and outdoor areas r very nice. We are happy that we have our Mom At Westbrook.

All I have to say is that...it is one great place...Palos Senior Living...I see all pretty happy residents there...My Dad the resident there an introvert, and from rural Wisconsin, says the help there and food is friendly and great.

The staff is very caring & supportive, especially in times of death of spouse. My husband passed in February. The people that live here are friendly and supportive also I would recommend Palmilla Senior Living.

Crestview is a lovely, active retirement community. There is never a dull moment unless you want it to be. The staff in every department work to make sure you are happy in all your needs. The facility is beautiful, you feel like you are in a grand hotel. The food is very good and a wide variety of choices! What I love most are the other people who live there! Everyone is so friendly! You will have many friends if you so desire!

My mother moved into her apartment in April of 2024. She picked this facility out of the 4 we visited and 10 we reviewed on-line. She loves the food and food choices. She is enjoying the activities, especially chair yoga. She also loves the happy hour on “Thirsty Thursdays”. Her neighbors have all been very welcoming and she looks forward to visiting with them every day. I have been very happy to see her enjoying herself every day. Her apartment is beautiful and she loves her balcony.

Based on the experience we have had so far, we'd say 5 for all as Mom loves it there most of the time. However there are a few things. Food-recent changes in food options/availability due to inflation are disappointing for residents. Activities are fantastic and well attended. Cleanliness is above average dining experience is above average

Rigden Farm is a clean, comfortable and welcoming community. The friendly staff has gone out of there way to make her feel at home. The interaction with management has all been positive. The food is good and choices are extensive. Specials for lunch and dinner each week are a plus.

I would recommend Las Soleras Senior Living to others looking.

Everyone seems to be kind, friendly and helpful. Mom said the food has gotten worse, nothing specific, just kind of bland and just not that good. She said it changed when the old chef left.

Las Palomas is a wonderful place for [name removed] parents. They are very happy there and are well cared for. We are very pleased with Las Palomas. We would absolutely recommend them to other families. Their Assisted Living accommodations are very good and their Memory Care accommodation's and staff are excellent. And the Business staff and Front Desk team are A+++.

Ive been here for 2 1/2 years and i love living here. My apartment is very nice, the residents and staff are wonderful. Food is good. Activities are great with lots of options. If i need fixing in my apartment, maintenance comes fast! Location is fabulous. Near doctors, grocery stores, restaurants and library. Great gym facility with physical therapy, occupational and speech therapy options. Swimming Pool is a great plus. Definitely recommend!

My loved one is currently a resident at The Oaks at Algonquin. I would highly recommend this facility to others. The meal choices are really great. The staff is friendly. They offer great projects for those who are interested in crafts. The atmosphere is light and bright.
