36 Nursing Homes Communities in Lake County, Illinois

The Ivy at Draper on Bangerter Parkway who is now owned by Greystar for the last year. This is a 55+ senior community that is charging each tenant $40. a month for sewer! I have a friend who’s parents are on a fixed income and this is wrong. You need to check into them and their practices as they also have to pay for the heating and the cooling of the halls of the building halls as well as the electrical for the hall lights and outside lights which is about $25. a month. The tenants should not have to pay to heat and cool the building and for the lights inside the building and outside. We have never seen these charges anywhere that they assess tenants. The tenants have to pay for their own power bill inside their unit which is normal, but it is expensive as their units are all electric. The manager is not able to be reached and does not care about her tenants welfare and the building is not being maintained properly. They raise the rent on tenants from $100 a year to $300 a year. They also have to pay to park out in the open or for a carport. In addition to all of these fees, they are expected to pay Greystar for pest control, a landline phone plus Internet and cable. They are assessed all of these fees every month. The rent there is over $1700.+ a month for a small two bedroom and two bath.

Rooms are terrible, old furniture, not clean. Staff is lazy & mean. Food is awful, I wouldn't feed to my dog.

Don't place your loved ones here. My mother was neglected when she resided in the memory care unit, left on the cold floor for hours which led to a significant hospital stay with a decline in her function. She then had 4 other injuries which were unexplained and discovered by family or her Hospice nurse. Family was never notified by facility of her injuries. Most of her clothing disappeared as fast as we provided it. Director of nursing and administrator don't have the decency to return calls until you leave 3-4 messages.

Adequate rooms. Food good activities good . Staff is poor don't give meds on time staff rude . Don't hold up to health codes dealing with bugs instead of spraying whole building just do one room to continue. Hard to get ahold of staff . Instead of getting an increase once a year on Ren they do twice a year and don't tell anyone till month before .

Severe shortage of staff, staff fight loudly. No activities for residents, poor food and lack of care. Fell and not found til next day. Avoid it.
