Tolton Manor sits at 6345 South Stewart Avenue in the Englewood area of Chicago, and has been serving the community since 1995 as a multifamily property that offers 80 one-bedroom apartment units for people age 62 and over who can care for themselves but may need some help from time to time, which is really handy because the building has personal assistance programs and a variety of care types including independent living, assisted living, memory care for people with dementia, and supports for those who need help with daily living like bathing, dressing, or medication management. The building is elevator-serviced and features a medical emergency alarm system in every apartment, which is monitored 24-hours a day, so there's always someone nearby to help if anything should happen, and residents can enjoy cozy communal spaces for socializing, an elegant dining area for meals, and beautifully landscaped gardens that are nice for a walk or to sit outside and get some fresh air. Tolton Manor's staff comes recommended for their kindness, and the community has a lounge, laundry, mailboxes, offices, a community room with a kitchen, a library, an exam room, and public restrooms, so most of the daily needs are covered within the building, and they offer nutritious meals every day to make sure seniors have a balanced diet.
Facilities provide nursing, rehabilitation care, hospice, and home care, while caregiver support groups and respite care services offer help for family and loved ones, and there's an option for adult day care when seniors want a safe and social environment during the day. Seniors who move here can pick from several programs or "care levels"-the community holds detailed reports on amenities and property features, and one can learn about things like utilities, rent history, occupancy rates, or characteristics of each apartment. The same goes for common area features, so families can know all the facts before deciding. Sponsored by Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Chicago and managed under the Section 202 PRAC program of HUD, this community offers supportive housing for seniors who may still live independently but enjoy the safety, comfort, and social life that comes with other people their age-plus the peace of mind that comes from living somewhere with skilled staff around, especially for those with specific health or memory care needs. The property covers 50,000 square feet, giving a good bit of space both indoors and outdoors, and each apartment mixes privacy with easy access to the shared areas, so residents have spots to meet friends, enjoy activities, or simply relax in their own living room.
