It's a rough job with everyone in different stages of dementia but they have so much patience and love for all of the people here. Any time we've had questions or concerns they have been very attentive and immediately tried to make things right.

My mom had to stay here after her surgery, and there were a lot of cool staff I seen and had the…read morepleasure to meet while my mom was getting care. And the majority of the staff seemed to care about the people, although I did notice at least one person who worked there that just seemed to treat it as a job....maybe it was a bad day for them, but still a life is a huge responsibility. The outdoors is nice and the bottom floor has the activity room for therapy and there is a store and a church...which incidentally, is NOT open during EASTER i found out the hard way. Still over all a pleasurable experience. Why the four stars?

The specific apartment was spacious (we had a 2 bedroom) and although it wasn't fancy it was very nice and we were able to enhance it with so many items from my parents home. The ability to move across care levels (my parents were in independent but needed nursing at times) was also really helpful. Their faith based orientation was obvious and comforting, across all staff (office), priests, music director and even some brief interactions with the CEO.

While I was visiting, I called the nurse to question them on why my aunts foot was so swollen it was cracking, and in the 2 hours I was there NO ONE came to her room.

They have helped her to become more independent while keeping a positive mindset when she is struggling. I think what's most impressive is the entire facility works together to give residents a feeling of belonging and a sense of control whenever they can. The facility makes an effort to celebrate anything and everything which gives the residents something to look forward to. Today they took a group of residence out to see a movie. What a huge lift, but they made it happen. I have a lot of experience with long-term care facilities and this one really knocks it out of the park.

The staff is friendly, my relative is in a private room for rehab.

They should not have been in a situation to fall -- they are there to get therapy. This is only for short term, and I believe the rehab is nicer than long term care. These are first impressions only; I will update at a later time.

This review is about what happened to my Grandma on the last day of her life here. You decide…read morewhether it's the facility or the system and whether you'd want an experience like this for you and your loved ones. Caveat: I live out of town. I came to see her for two days in week 3 of her visit and then for another two days in week 4. This incident happened on the last day of my visit. Caveat: Up to this point, everyone was very nice and professional. The one star reflects only my experience on the last day. My 94-year-old Grandma was transferred here to heal a broken hip. The doctor said Grandma's heart, vitals and everything looks good, the hip is healing, and they can start PT soon. By the end of week 2, Grandma was completely bedridden, barely eating, and growing weaker and weaker. When I came to visit in week 3, Grandma was a shell of a person. Her mind was still there and she could reminisce about the old country. But she was in constant pain and talked about wanting to die. She did not want to rehab, screamed through the PT sessions, talked about how she wanted to die in peace. The PoA wanted rehab. By week 4, the first day I visited for a few hours, Grandma was barely speaking and has had almost no food for many days. She could barely reminisce, all she talked about was wanting to die. Doctors said her hip was healing and her vitals looked good. The second day I came to visit on week 4, a half hour into our visit, she started to have horrible chest pains. She started screaming. I found the nurse and asked for a doctor. I was told a doctor is "on his way", and I shouldn't worry, they are about to give her pain meds (oxy). Grandma was screaming, asking to go to the hospital. I ran around, bugging and bugging staff about this supposed doctor and if he isn't running over, then I'm calling 911. They said don't worry about it, she's having an anxiety attack, they're asking PoA for permission to give her anti-anxiety meds. Grandma was screaming and screaming. I told the staff I'm calling 911. They said not to call and give time for the meds to work. I called the PoA and left a pleading voicemail, no answer. Almost an hour goes by, no reply. We can't do anything without the PoA was the answer from staff. Wait to call the hospital, they said. Eventually, the POA got in touch with the staff and told them not to take Grandma to the hospital. The doctor's coming, the staff told me. Grandma was screaming and screaming. I told the staff that I'm calling 911. They said no, they won't release her since the PoA explicitly said no. They checked her "vitals" and while the blood pressure was a little low, she's fine. A doctor was on his way. The PoA was not a medical professional and did not think it was an emergency. I asked staff for some kind of help, but I could tell the PoA told them to ignore me. They avoided eye contact and walked the other way when they saw me. Grandma screamed and screamed and screamed. I asked again if I can call 911, staff said they can't overrule the POA. Grandma was screaming and screaming. She says she wants to die, the pain was too much, she said she needed to go to the hospital. I ran out and relayed her message to the staff (Grandma barely speaks English). One said, "the patient says she wants to go?" "Yes, yes" I say. Another one leaned over and whispered. "We can't overrule the POA, we're doing everything we can" was the response. I begged the staff for more pain relief, for the doctor. "He's on his way". I pressed for more information; they finally revealed he's not in the facility. But should be arriving shortly. When? He's not texting back. Could I please call 911? I desperately made another call to the PoA. No, you can't call. They administered another dose of oxy for her "extreme pain". Grandma was screaming and screaming. Said feels like she's being dissected. I begged for help from anyone who steps into the room, they shrugged. Then someone closed the door, so they couldn't hear her as much. I helplessly cried next to her, stroked her arm, endless adjusted pillows, telling her how much I loved her, and listened to her agonizing cries for almost FOUR!!! hours. HELPLESS!!! Finally and thankfully, she passes out in a way you can tell she's not waking up. A few minutes later, the doctor (nurse practitioner) came in, apologized for being so late, and commented how Grandma was generally in good standing. He promised to do a KUB and left without touching her. I left eventually. Grandma did not have a pulse when the staff came to check on her overnight. When I called the facility the next morning and asked why staff didn't help her, they said they did everything they could. They couldn't override the PoA. So here you go, folks. If you want a facility that will follow the PoA's instructions with diligence, while ignoring the patient's pleas for help and basic human decency, you found it. P.S. Yes, I should've called 911 regardless of what the staff or the PoA told me. Call 911!!

Symphony Buffalo Grove Ruth Ericson…read more1 review 48 minutes ago NEW My loved one spent 6 weeks at Symphony Rehab in Buffalo Grove. I have had other family members at 2 different facilities in the Northwest suburbs and Symphony far surpassed them. Were there any glitches during the 6 weeks? The answer is yes. But the positives far out weigh any negative experience. All of the managers were exceptional when it came to addressing any issues we expressed. The Administrator to the Director of Nursing to the Social Worker and the head of the Therapy Department and the Reservation Manager were all highly approachable. I would like to mention by name, Lindsay and Andrea, the Occupational Therapist and the Physical Therapist were outstanding. When my family member first arrived at Symphony they could not sit on the side of the bed, could not sit themselves up and could barely walk even with assistance. By the time they left Symphony they were able to walk 200 feet with a walker. My loved one requires dialysis and the fact that Symphony offers dialysis was a Godsend. My loved one had to go to the hospital once per week for chemotherapy and Symphony arranged for transportation. The same for the 10 sessions of radiation they had to have...10 days in a row. If you find yourself in need of a rehab facility I hope you check out and consider Symphony in Buffalo Grove. They, for sure, far exceeded my expectations.

Caring.com put Harbor House in touch with me and from the moment I spoke with Savannah, the executive director, I knew this place was special. Savannah actually did the assessment at the big, fancy, expensive nursing home and confirmed what I already suspected. We moved her out of there and Savannah actually drove out there and helped me move her stuff and my mom (I was visiting mom out of town). Over the next few days, I got a very up-close look at Harbor House and how the staff interacts with their residents. I popped in at unexpected times and walked through the adjacent buildings. I never saw a deviation from the excellence of care I saw the first time - not even once. I never saw residents mistreated or spoken to condescendingly, like I did at the other place. The caregivers are amazing women. Sam, Becky, Brittany, are really hands on nurses. Sam spent tons of time with me, discussing my mother's medications. The doctors call you and I spoke with Dr. Ernst about my mom for an hour! I couldn't even get the doctor at the big, fancy place to return my call! The place is small and it's warm and cozy - like a previous commenter said, it's not like an institution at all. It's like a home. My mom has an adorable sunny, private room with her own bathroom. She's always got someone there to help her. All I can say about this place except is that it's exceptional. I have learned that big, fancy nursing homes are usually understaffed and can't manage the needs of their patients. This place CARES for their patients. I don't need crystal chandeliers and big lobbies. I need individualized care with people who treat the elderly like the human beings they are. Harbor House does this. The owner of this facility needs to be very proud of his staff and his philosophies. I hope they never change. Amazing place.

She took my vitals and said my vitals was good. I requested for her or the CNA to call 911 to take me to the hospital and they both refused! I had to use my cell phone to call 911 the paramedics arrived and took me to the hospital. Once i arrived at the hospital.hospital staff ran several tests and results showed i just had a heart attack! But i had to call for paramedics myself! Since staff at Deerfield crossing refused to. And three weeks later I'm still in the hospital. I called the administrator at Deerfield crossing to let him know his staff the nurse nor the CNA wouldn't call the paramedics for me. He had such a nasty uncaring attitude about the situation. Only thing he said to me ok thanks for letting him know. Never once asked for more details nor apologized! This place like most nursing homes are being bought out by these foreigners. And they're only after one thing is money! They could care less about the residents! So please DO NOT GO TO THIS NASTY UNCARING DUMP OR SEND YOUR LOVE ONES THERE!!!
