As a family we appreciate the schedule in/near the elevators and the TV screens with announcements. There was plenty to do if they want to. A few issues not sure if they are common or not. We had reserved the her appointment several month ahead of move in date and still found things that needed to be fixed upon move in day. I must say nothing major just more annoying - loose handles, leaking faucet.... Willow Falls was quick to take money and not so quick to refund. Mom went to the hospital at the beginning of the month and had an extra meal plan for $150 per month. We agreed to pay for it because Mom wanted the convenience. Willow Falls called the ambulance, the family kept in touch with Willow Falls. Needless to say Mom continued to pay even though she was in the hospital. On the 21st or 22nd of the month the family asked Willow Falls to cancel the plan - they did but charged all the days they KNEW she was in the hospital, still not eating at Willow Falls, not using any services AND paying rent. Mom passed away, they prorated the month but are in no hurry to refund - it took 6 weeks and constant follow up - no one would accept responsibility. It became the principal of the money not the money itself.

There is a shuttle that takes residence to appts. etc. Grounds are beautiful and well maintained. In winter, snow is plowed in the parking lots on a timely basis. Extra storage space on 1st floor. Items I find on the negative side r: SHUT OFF VALVES R LOCATED WHERE U CAN'T GET 2 THEM 2 SHUT OFF THE WATER 2 THE Washer in the event of a problem. MAINTENANCE DO NOT WORK ON SAT OR SUN. Going home at 7:00Pm during the week. Changing furnace filters , U have 2 submit a work order 2 get it done. Food quality in cheap. potatoes, rice, noodles etc. they do not give u much. A few employees r here 2 collect a pay check and r not respectful 2 seniors. NO ORIENTATION OF APT WHEN NEW RESIDENCE MOVE IN, HOW THINGS WORK. RENT GOES UP ON A REGULAR BASIS 6% recent. Last summer i had a fruit fly problem. I was told 2 get rid of the fruit. I take garbage out 2 times daily and I have a CLEAN apt. Had a invasion of ANTS. Reported it 2 the front desk, Mainteance said they where out of ant traps. that i should deal with it. I must say there was a change in management last year, and hopefully they LISTEN 2 the residence in making this place one of the best in Il. THIS review is from my perspective NOT OTHER RESIDENCE.

This place is not good. Be advised. My mother was moved from…read moretheir Assisted Living building to their Memory Care building and the level of care dropped dramatically. The staff does not care or try very hard. I had to suggest and purchase protein shakes when my mother stopped eating. They got bills/mail from ambulance service and doctors. They did not give me these items until my mother died. Front desk just shrugged their shoulders when I asked why I was not given them during my visits. There is a level of incompetence that is not acceptable. My mother passed away and I came a week later to clean out her room. They surprise charged me for this additional week by just grabbing money out of the bank account. If you are looking for care for a parent or loved one.....pass on this place.

This place is…read morenot only neglecting and negligent, but lied when they said they provide 24-hour care for our loved ones who need it. They are short staffed, and nobody has an answer as to how the injury occurred to my family members who are residents there. They have not been there more than 2 weeks and have fallen and been hospitalized for a severe head injury and a broken clavicle. Yet when we initially visited the facility, they portrayed this place as a loving, caring and nurturing facility for seniors. I wonder how many other residents there have fallen or been injured due to negligent service. If this facility is not equipped to handle the large number of residents they have, then they need to focus on hiring more staff and provide ample training. I would definitely not give this place not one star rating at all. Not only is it very expensive, but it is also so negligent in its care for their residents. My grandfather had bruising, swollen lip and a cut on his right knee. My grandmother fell a total of 5 times broken clavicle and head injury along with bleeding. Like, I said they have not been there more than 2 weeks. Just Horrible care.

The day we were to…read morediscuss assisted living with her doctor, I found myself calling 911 and sending her to the hospital for what would be 51 days, sepsis, 2 surgeries & 2 rehab stints. Having her return home was no longer an option; which led me to quickly get to up to speed on senior living options,mostly on my own. I found her a place & moved her in all before her release. While I ensured her safety, I second guessed my decisions as she vocally struggled to adjust; it was a lot of change particularly for someone who rarely left her home. Almost 6 months in, a different set of doubts & worries took over. Did I make the right call, could she live somewhere more affordable, would she outlive her money, etc. I don't even recall what search term led me to Senior Living Experts, but I'm grateful. Rebecca listened to my story and made me feel less alone. She thought where my mom was at was the best option in terms of cost, desired location and care needs addressed, but would do the research and circle back. We also discussed the care she received currently and provided a few suggestions. As promised, Rebecca followed up and confirmed her initial assessment. Yes, I'll still worry about her finances, but I now have a better understanding of the landscape and what comes should her care needs increase. If I had a do over, I would have started with Senior Living Experts, they are amazing!

Its like she was trying to humiliate me and degrade me, with no intentions to move forward with the hiring process. She kept trying to be indiscrete about it. I'm reporting them, regardless of the outcome. The interview felt like a auction of some sort. She was deliberately trying to victimize me. And took important documents in the process!

I'm going to keep discussing this so she want do it to another person.
