Independent Living Community in Urbana, Illinois

Amber Glen gave me a good feeling. The lady who showed us around was very competent and spoke to many of the residents and knew them personally. The facility was very nice. People seemed to be happy and satisfied with their meals. It was a good atmosphere. The number of people was sizable but workable, not overflowing. Everybody was satisfied with the situation they were in.

I was struck by how extraordinarily clean Brookdale Urbana is and how the furnishings looked pretty much like new. I was very impressed with the operation, but my sister is very stubborn. The staff had to do considerable efforts to make sure that she was OK, that she was fed, cleaned up, and considering how little she cooperates with them, I think that they are saints. They don't complain about her, they just do their jobs and were getting by. She may get better because of having a good deal of proper medical attention. It involves their staff and especially their nursing staff but also involves the resources that we have out in the community for doctors, nurses, specialists and so on. I've eaten three different meals with her at different times of day, and the food is excellent. You get a private apartment with a separate living room from the bedroom, a kitchen, and a bathroom. It's really excellent. She can have fresh food in her refrigerator. We furnished that apartment. She went into a new apartment.
