"Mixed Experience at Assisted Living Facility"
The managers and supervisors were awesome. The staff could've paid more attention. They made nice changes with new furniture, but room cleaning wasn't their strong suit. My mom isn't there anymore. Nights had too few staff. Unfortunately, my mom fell and ended up in the hospital, and now she's in a different place.

"Poor Care and Dishonesty at Assisted Living Facility"
We didn't have a good time here. The people in charge were okay, but the workers didn't take good care of my mom and she ended up back in the hospital. The place was neat and clean, so we thought it was a good fit. But the people supposed to take care of her were the issue. They gave her the wrong amounts of her medicine and made her eat by herself even after we asked them to help her. Because of this, she got really sick. Then, they weren't honest with the bosses. They even took her personal wheelchair and I had to look all over the place for it.

"Lack of Accountability in Assisted Living Facilities"
I tried other places, but they were full or too pricey. These assisted living and memory care facilities seem more focused on money than taking responsibility. They happily take your payment but won't be accountable for missing personal items like clothes, shoes, blankets, or eyeglasses.

"Great Tour and Community, But Not Ready for Assisted Living"
took us on a fantastic tour. We saw the communal dining area, which my loved one really liked. However, assisted living wasn’t the right fit for them. That was the main drawback.

"Limited Staffing, Lacking Medical Care, Hospice Help Appreciated"
This place doesn't have enough workers. My mom needed medical care, but they couldn't provide it. I didn't know they didn't have people there to take care of even small injuries. Now, I have a hospice worker helping with her care, which I didn't know was possible before. It's a real lifesaver. They mostly listen to what I have to say, which is good.

"Mixed Feelings About Memory Care Proximity"
Our family visited in person, and we enjoyed the community. The tour was pleasant, but we weren't fond of the memory care building being near assisted living.

"Morningview is a great place to stay"
After a stroke I stayed at Morninview for respite, physical, and occupational therapy. The staff is a positive and caring group of people, I've found that they food offered there is great. Whether you are staying as a resident or for respite, I recommend Morningview.

"Not Quite the Right Fit!"
This place was pleasant. The guide was friendly and useful. Unfortunately, it didn't provide the services my brother required. On the bright side, it was clean and odor-free.

"Mixed Feelings About Assisted Living Facility"
Touring with a staff was nice. The building is older than I'd prefer, and the location isn't ideal for me. But I haven't completely ruled it out.

"Finding the Right Home: A Positive Experience at Morningview"
On February 24, 2015, we moved my mom into Morningview at Irving Park. Before that, I talked to Carol from A Place for Mom. She gave me useful advice and helped me find the right place. I spent months researching and visiting different facilities, and I chose Morningview mainly because of how the staff interacted with the residents. Whether my visits were planned or surprise, the staff always greeted the residents by name and made them feel genuinely cared for. A few weeks before the move, I felt a lot of worry and guilt. As the only child, I was afraid I was letting my mom down or not living up to my late dad’s memory. These feelings were all in my head. Now, seeing pictures and hearing from friends and family, I know I made the right choice. My mom has adjusted well. She gets to meet new people, make friends, and be closer to her great-grandchildren. Even with dementia, she can still be happy and look great. I’m very grateful for the care she receives.

"Insufficient Staffing Affects Resident Assistance"
The place is tidy, and the staff is nice. But there aren't enough CNAs, causing delays for residents.

"Mixed feelings about room size and friendliness, but reliable assistance"
They were really nice and welcoming, but the rooms were a bit smaller than we expected. They have a system where you can call for help if you fall or need assistance, which is good, but it felt a little crowded to us.

"Cozy atmosphere, caring staff, clean rooms - Small but welcoming!"
I really liked the smaller atmosphere of this place. The administrator was caring and helpful. Everything seemed clean, but the rooms were small.
