Churchview Supportive Living sits on West 63rd Street in Chicago and gives seniors 65 and older a place that feels welcoming and straightforward, with affordable living for those who need help but still want to keep their independence, and the building's got lightly colored pastel walls that make it feel bright and calm. Seniors live in carpeted studio or one-bedroom apartments that come with kitchenettes, private bathrooms, emergency call systems, and individual heating and air conditioning, and the whole place has elevators, wheelchair access, community rooms, a dining hall serving three restaurant-style meals a day plus snacks, and weekly activities like bingo, movie nights, and Bible study, and things like laundry rooms, a beauty salon, a library, exercise spaces, and even a fireplace with a piano for those music afternoons when people gather.
Certified staff stay on duty 24 hours a day, helping with things like medications, bathing, dressing, and getting around, and there's always help for health monitoring and transportation to appointments, and the place focuses on helping people manage daily life with some support, but everyone can join in on social events or exercise groups when they want. Churchview Supportive Living provides support for people managing diabetes, offers nutrition programs, hospice and palliative care if needed, and there's even caregiver support along with resource guides for things like COVID-19, so families and residents can get information and help if they need it.
Those who use Medicaid or have limited Social Security income may qualify for financial help to make living there possible, and the apartments have keycard entry, free parking, and storage space. The grounds include an outdoor patio, country store, and a therapy room, while the team keeps a regular newsletter called "The Buzz at Churchview" so everyone knows what's going on. The place encourages residents to add their wisdom and stay involved in the community, and the management tries to make everyone feel like they belong, focusing on dignity, compassion, and the chance to keep busy and social.
Churchview Supportive Living, with three locations managed by Gardant Management Solutions and the Greater Southwest Development Corporation, has a high occupancy rate and offers both supportive and assisted living options, with adult day care and respite care also available for families needing a break. The facility has received recognition from the American Health Care Association/National Center for Assisted Living, including the Bronze and Silver National Quality Awards for 2025, and every bit of the community strives to make life smoother, safer, and a little more joyful for older folks in Chicago who need some help but want to stay as independent as possible, all while keeping things affordable and accessible for those who qualify.
