Enroute Eyecare - Chestnut Square

My mother has lived at Chestnut Square for 4.5 years now. She has always been impressed with the kind attention received from the entire staff. Including using people’s names regularly. The social activities are a large part of the glue that holds residents together. Not least is the quality of the meals everyday. A large variety of delicious, nutritious food making heading to the dining room an occasion to look forward to. The facility even provides a small shelf outside every apartment for the occupant to display, and they are proudly displayed, an expression of their individuality. Overall a comfortable satisfying community to live in.

From the first day , mom was greeted with warmth and friendliness from all the staff. The environment is cozy, and cheerful. The amenities are luxurious with many social activities too. Although mom was only there 3 years, it was still a positive experience for all of us. Thank you ❤️

I spent the better part of 9 months researching the entire retirement community industry to try and find the right/best fit for my mother's needs and preferences. Chestnut Square is such a unique and wonderful place, I consider us fortunate it was an option so nearby where we live in Glenview. It truly is an absolute home run. here is what makes it so special and unique; it was the ONLY independent living community I could find that offers assisted nursing options in 15 minute increments. That may sound like it's not a big deal, but everywhere else and any other external providers we contacted had much higher minimum time charges for coming into my mom's unit to assist her, usually 2 hours minimum time charges. Their unique partnership with Bethany Health seems to afford them the ability to offer this unique option. So, as my mom ages in place, if she just needs help taking meds in the morning, we can pay a 60-min nurse fee. If she needs help just bathing, same thing. It's brilliant and was a major advantage of Chestnut over other facilities. The price and economics of the buy-in were reasonable, they customized my mom's unit to her liking and everything was upgraded when she moved in. My mom loves her unit. Beyond that aspect, the staff is truly exceptional. What you'll notice immediately is how much the staff seem to both like each other, and their jobs. Every person I've interacted with since we moved my mom in last year is always in a good mood, always seems happy to be there and they seem to really enjoy taking care and socializing with everyone. My mom can't stop talking about how much she loves the food, they do a great job of mixing up food options so things stay fresh and new. They offer every type of club, activity, outing, and social option you could want and the entire building is spotless at all times. Nothing but love for everyone at Chestnut. Thank you for taking such great care to serve and support my mom on this next chapter for her. Eternally grateful and thankful for all of you there.

I have been living at Chestnut Square ever since they opened 22 years ago. I think it is one of the nicest places to live. The staff is extremely helpful and very careing. The residents are very welcoming to new residents. It is very clean and just the right size. It is a very casual atmosphere. The design is very bright and inviting. It has so many things available to make life easier. There are so many activities that you will never get bored. Come take a look and you will see why I like living here so much.

My mother has lived at Chestnut Square for about nine years and has been extremely happy. She often mentions that her decision to move there was one of the best decisions of her life. She has a lovely apartment and enjoys the extensive facilities available. While living at Chestnut Square she has made many friends and enjoys sharing meals with them in the dining room. The staff are simply excellent As I live in the UK, I am unable to see my mother as often as I would like, so it is a comfort to know that my mother is well cared for and very happy.
