    Chris was a great support for our family. He made it much easier for us to handle a hard situation!

    The memory care faculty is bad. The staff are on their…read morecell phones and rude. They only have housekeeping one day a week. That is why the residents room smells like pee.The CNAS leave the residents in one room watching TV and are in another room, they don't check on the residents every two hours when they say they do. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

    BEWARE!!! As long as "assisted living" is minimal time involved they are more than happy to take…read more$$$$ - as soon as you need 3 extra minutes (no exaggeration) they say they can no longer "care" for you. Director even told me assisted living isn't what they can do for you but how much staff time it takes. Then they unceremoniously tell you to leave. While you find somewhere, they are happy to raise your rate while cutting your service. Horrible management! Example: they claimed loved one was a 2 person + assist and aides were instructed to leave her in her room for all meals - in her lift recliner (where they also left her to sleep and go to the bathroom!) IT'S A LIFT RECLINER!!! I came in BY MYSELF and transferred her to her wheelchair (giving her time to get her feet under her and turn) to go to the dining room. I filmed it and the entire transfer BY MYSELF took 3 minutes and 30 seconds! this is what they claimed 2 or more of their staff couldn't do!!! PS - loved one is doing everything at the new facility that Clarendale said she couldn't do simply because they couldn't be bothered to give her literally a few extra minutes. They won't tell you this up front and have no qualms totally upending an elderly persons life for their convenience. Additionally, they screwed up submitting 2 months of insurance claims and after basically kicking her out, have not responded to requests for a refund on the entire months rent and care that was paid - we are out about $24,000 until everything can be resolved.

    This is such a nice company to work for. They treat the employees and clients really well! They…read moreoffer ongoing training & fun events too! They are super patient and no matter who you speak with in the office, they all are willling to help in every way possible!

    My mom lives in the Northwest Suburbs and we finally decided that she could no longer "do it…read morealone". We had gone through a lot with my dad before he passed away and so we knew what we wanted and what we didn't. Unfortunately, the informal network we used for my dad didn't have women caregivers so we were back to to square one. After doing a lot of research with the local senior center and online we called For Papa's Sake, which is based out of the town next to where my mom lives. From the very first phone call I suspected we had gotten lucky. After a couple of calls and some group discussion between me, my mom and a For Papa's Sake senior person we decided we'd try them out. And am I glad we did. They listened to my mom's and my requests, likes, dislikes, deal-breakers etc. and they never batted an eye. They did say it might take a bit longer than usual (given our needs) to find the right care giver, but they called back in less than 5 days and we had a care giver within 10 days to 2 weeks of that 1st main discussion. That care giver has worked out so well. It has really improved our lives and I can go days without worrying about my mom...what a relief. That's what For Papa's Sake provides: relief! If you are looking for an alternative to a nursing home or aged care facility or whatever you want to call it, For Papa's Sake really cares and I would encourage you to give them a call. They have worked out great for us and I would not recommend them for something so important if they weren't doing a great job.
