Lighthouse recovery is as good as it gets! Foremost, every member of the staff loves what they do…read moreand they really care about the people they treat. The founder and clinical director Nate Lanthrum has poured his heart and soul into Lighthouse. Essentially, Nate customizes a plan for you, based on your goals and needs. He combines the most successful components of various addiction recovery techniques (including the most current treatment modalities) and has made something original. He's deeply intelligent, humble and he brings a great sense of humor into the recovery process. One of the most intimidating parts of entering a recovery program is the admissions. Marty handles the intake process for new clients and makes the process as easy as humanly possible. Marty's basic philosophy is "we will do everything in our power to work with you and get you the help you need." Lighthouse doesn't turn people away who can't afford the program because they actually care about people. If you have insurance then Marty handles that aspect for you and gets you enrolled. Lighthouse offers medication assisted treatment. Their on staff physician is Dr Steve Holtsford. He is incredibly down to earth, intelligent, and caring. I have not had such a pleasant experience with a doctor in ages. He is really thorough yet expeditious. You never feel hurried during your time with him. He encourages you to be gentle with yourself when you need medication, and he is more than willing to assist you in your goals of tapering off medications. Lighthouse is a world class institution. If you need help, if someone you love needs help, give them a call. Asking Lighthouse for help might be the best thing you ever do for yourself or someone close to you.

The Grove has a few good nurses but don't employ enough making them bring in agency (temps)nurses to fill out the staff.The full time CNAs are good but they depend on temps on evenings and the weekends.These temps are usually ill mannered and just plain lazy.

This place was an absolute nightmare! It was like Hell on Earth. I was there with a broken leg and…read moreligament damage to my knee a year ago. I couldn't walk or put weight on my leg. They didn't know how to treat my leg. I hade careless nurses, abusive staff I saw treating older patients bad. My staff I had was bruta. At times I'd wait an hour just to get help up to use the bathroom. The food was disgusting. I ate take out all the time I had brought in for me. it was always freezing cold, There were a few Nurses, CNA's and PT that should have been fired. I don't recommend this place to anyone. Long or short term care.

I was hospitalized in Michaelsen Health's Acute Nursing Care Center for seven weeks, following a…read morelife-threatening infection involving extensive surgery. Everyone at the Center, from my attending Physicians, Nurse Practitioners, Nurses, Nurse Assistants, Occupational Therapists, Physical Therapists, Speech Therapists, to the Social Worker, Dietician, Housekeepers, and folks in the Cafeteria, treated me with the utmost level of professionalism, compassion, and thoughtfulness. I can genuinely say that each member of my healthcare team treated me as if I were a member of their family. I can honestly say that I would not have walked out of the Center if not for them...if not for each and everyone of them.

Very under staffed. My mom is now a patient there. When you call for help or assistance we have…read morewaited from 30-40 mins for help. My mother has not bathed or showered in 1 week. She said they have sponge bathed her which consists of being wiped down with diaper wipes. She is there for rehabilitation from a fractured femur and has gone to rehab 3 times in 6 days. 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. This place is awful. I am sorry we were sent here.

Excellent Long Term Care Facility…read more My dad had been here 6 months now. The rooms are wonderful, very nice and homey, not hospital like at all. The household set up provides great care. We are there for food service quite a bit, and the food is great. There are so many choices and they work with each patient to get them what they desire no matter how picky they are :) The regular staff is wonderful, very caring. They make sure my dad is eating and strongly encourage him to go to the exercise class and events no matter how grumpy he is back to them. He needs a lot of care going to the bathroom and they have great patience. I have always seen him treated with respect. I have seen some delays in getting medication but not excessive (we were changing a lot of things) , and it may have been due to communication with hospice. We had one issue with mistreatment from nursing staff and it was handling immediately and correctly. They seem to have a wonderful physical/occupation therapy room, well staffed, but my dad was not up to that so I can't speak on that. I would definitely recommend this to others for long term care. It is a bit pricey for the area but the facilities reflect that cost.

This place is so rundown, not clean, no A/C in the building (it was close to 90 today) and the male inside the office to the right of the entrance as you walk in, gave an attitude and it felt like I was an inconvenience to him and was short and rude to not only myself, but the resident. I reported this place to the IDPH for the conditions here. I would not allow any living being or person go there.

Upon starting our tour the manager said "I give you my word she will get her medications promptly…read more Anything we don't have we can get in two hours." That was a straight up lie. She did not get her meds for many hours and they were screwed up despite clear orders. Then I got a call in the middle of the night saying dementia patients are wandering into my room. And this is someone bedridden. And on top the place was built in the 60s and looks like it has received zero updates. So depressing. We got her out of there the next morning.

It is impossible to put into words the gratitude that I feel for Maria Rago and her team at Rago &…read moreAssociates. Maria, Lisa, Josie, and the rest of this team of extraordinary clinicians saved my life - I wouldn't be here today without them. When I started working with Rago & Associates, I was at the end of my rope. My eating disorder had plagued me for years, growing stronger and more powerful despite the work I'd put in with other therapists and dietitians. When I met Maria I was stripped of all hope, and I felt that no matter what I did I would never experience healing or recovery. Maria met me exactly where I was at with compassion, love, and genuine hope for my future. She cried with me, held my hand, and assured me that I was deserving of health and happiness - and that she would fight alongside me tooth and nail until we achieved that, no matter what. She created a treatment plan tailored to my needs and invited my loved ones into the recovery process by providing accessible tools, resources, and space to feel heard and supported with all that they were carrying. She guided my family and me through the ups and downs of recovery - utilizing her experience in everything from outpatient to residential settings - with a keen understanding of what I needed and how to get me to agree to it (no small feat). Maria invited other exceptional clinicians from her team to join in my recovery process, including other therapists, a psychiatrist, and a dietician. Each brought their own unique way of connecting with me and discovering who I was, who I wanted to be, and how we were going to get there together. Through it all, Maria remained firmly planted in my corner, my biggest advocate and supporter, her belief in me unwavering. I cannot overstate how much it meant to have this team of people who refused to give up on me. Every time I fell, I had an interconnected web of people ready to catch me and help me back onto my feet. When I felt like I had nothing left, they showed me how much more fight there was inside of me. Eating disorders flourish in the dark, but this team of people shines with a radiant light. I am forever grateful to them for guiding me down the path to true and full recovery.
