Four days after my dad passed away in 2023, they helped my mom be completely moved back to an independent living apartment. MY PARENTS WERE MARRIED 70 YEARS AND NEVER HAD TO SPEND ONE DAY APART AT WINDSOR PARK. When my dad transferred to Johnson Center skilled nursing after a hospitalization, my mom could walk there from their apartment, under the same roof. Since my dad has been gone, my mom is still participating in activities with friends she has had since 2018. Socialization and continuity have been key for her well-being. She is moving through the grieving process and building a new way of life as a widow amongst her peers, many of whom have had similar life experiences. This beautiful place has been a blessing to our family.

My 92-year old mother moved into one of their assisted living studios in the fall of 2014. Up until that point, she had lived on her own, so clearly, she wasn't very enthusiastic about the move. She wasn't as engaged in some of the activities as we might have liked, but it wasn't for lack of the staff's teasing encouragement (which she enjoyed). When her health deteriorated a year or so later, she moved into the more intimate memory care wing in a studio almost identical to the one she'd had, where the staff could keep her under watchful eyes. Before long, a hospice crew became part of her care team. As prickly as my mother could be, she was loved by members of the staff. Several of her caregivers wept the day she died and for me, that said it all. Difficult as it was, we had made the right decision. One other thing worth mentioning: it's not a huge community, so if it's important for your loved one to be in a place where everyone knows everyone else, this is a good choice.

Highest end retirement community for those who can afford it. Extremely good accommodations,…read moregrounds, very clean, beautiful landscaping, tasteful decor. Staff seems highly qualified, respectful, polite, friendly and helpful. A couple of signs that this place is above and beyond are that the staff knows old fashioned civility, they greet with proper formality, titles plus last names rather than assuming a rude first name interaction without permission or introduction. Second important good sign is excellent entertainment ("social enrichment ") like guest college professor lectures from College of DuPage, music performances, craft classes and such. Nice auditorium with good AV and qualified tech swrvices. Dining facilities are good. The care level seems more than adequate and unlike other places like this they don't seem to suffer from any shortage. I think they can handle a range of function a d disability levels so it would be a good choice to move in with expectations of later levels of health decline.

I live next to their property and our association board meetings are held at Belmont Village. So I see a lot between having them as neighbors and being inside their facility on a regular basis. When you walk in the front door you enter a large lobby with a large grand and player piano in it. You are greeted by a full time staff person located at the front entrance. The staff is professional and very friendly. The restaurant is located at the rear of the lobby. It is very eloquent and serves up great looking meals. The residents always look happy and well cared for. The grounds and facility are well maintained and the interior is immaculate. Outside there are flower gardens, gazebo and a walking path. My mother was cared for in a facility like this for many years so I know what to compare to. This one is above the rest in my opinion. If the need every arose in the future for myself, I would be excited to live there as well.

Due to the global pandemic, our application and move-in process was complicated and delayed, so our family was very stressed. I cannot say enough positive words about Starr and Vicki. They communicated with me regularly throughout the process to ease my stress and offer comfort. Even now, a few months after Dad's move-in, they still email or text me just to say hello and see how my Dad and the rest of the family is doing. These two women are kind and compassionate, and they truly helped our family through a very difficult time! There were times when I felt discouraged, so I would call Starr because I knew that her positive encouragement would make me feel better. She even called Dad to encourage him when I was worried that he was getting disconsolate. Now Dad is settled in at Victory Centre and he is very happy! He tells me that everyone is so kind and helpful. He says that the food is very good and he is happy with his apartment. He told me that it is perfect for him because he has privacy and independence in his own space, but he feels safe with the regular check-ins. He put it this way: "the staff makes themselves quietly known throughout the day." The staff is kind and they treat the residents with respect. I have been able to relax knowing that his medications are administered on time every day and he is being well cared for. The staff communicated with me regularly about my dad, and I have had wonderful conversations with Lora and others. One last note, we really appreciate that Victory Centre is taking the global pandemic seriously. They are taking every necessary precaution to keep their residents, caregivers, and staff safe! In comparing numbers of cases at local facilities, it is obvious that Victory Centre is taking the right precautions. I miss my Dad, and I wish that I could go and hang out with him in his apartment, but I know that he is in excellent hands! The caregivers and staff at Victory Centre are true heroes and wonderful human beings!

Administratively, this institution fails in every category. Calls and emails are seldom answered or…read morereturned. We have monthly meetings with the Culinary Manager to discuss complains and improvements that residents have without action. Housekeeping and CNAs enter apartments without knocking or requesting admittance. The people who man the desk seldom know the answer to any question. There is no exercise room that residents can use. The turnover in staff is a concern as well as the training of new staff seems inadequate at best. Management appears to be oblivious to resident's needs. The carpeting in my hallway is filthy and badly stain due to a roof leak that has never been cleaned. There seems to be an overall lack of training in housekeeping and CNA responsibilities, due to the fact that they all seem to work independently and without direction. I have had several positive experiences with Maintenance, who are responsive to requests.

I can genuinely say that each member of my healthcare team treated me as if I were a member of their family.

I am more than disappointed. I called the front desk which took more than 25 rings to be answered when it was answered I asked for the nurses station and was told my call would probably not be answered because they were too busy. My mother went in healthy and completely aware of who she is and where she was. Last night she came down with a cold, fever, possibly Covid at 4:00pm the next day was finally given Tylenol to help with her fever. She was delirious and had no idea where she was.
