This facility was brighter and cleaner than the other places we visited. They offer quite a variety of activities. They do housekeeping once a week. Value for the money I rated lower because they raised their rates a week before we signed up. A little high, but it is a great pace. I would

Great place to be
I have been a resident of Heritage Woods for 1 year. I am very pleased with the care I receive. I very much enjoy the other residents and the staff is wonderful. The food and activities are very satisfactory. We go on outings, we have entertainment come. We play games in the dining room and sometimes if our dietary manager has time she will join us.

Heritage Woods - 2022
The most significant factor for my relative is the socialization aspect of the independent living environment. There are so many activities to participate in that I often hear the comment that "I'm too busy." There is comfort in knowing that the individual is getting well-balanced meals and is being monitored constantly for health and safety. I feel the staff is compassionate and truly concerned about the residents. I would like to see the resident's apartments kept a little cleaner.

A good tour
This community was a close second to the community we chose. The people we met were friendly and knowledgeable. The community was clean and I would say it might be worth taking a look at.

Residents all seem very happy
Several neighbors and friends families reside there. They all love it. When we visit everyone is happy and friendly. Have been there for a few holiday parties and they go all out. Fun. Food is great. Facility is clean. They always seem to get highest local rating. Good place for seniors.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Illinois regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Illinois regulations for Assisted Living.
