ALIYA of Evanston sits at 1300 Oak Avenue in Evanston, IL, and offers skilled nursing care, long-term care, short-term rehabilitation, memory care, and assisted living services, and while the building isn't advertised for sale or rent on big listing sites like Trulia, it does stay linked with rentals close by, and, being a small facility with 57 certified beds and an average of 51 residents each day, people will notice it often feels calmer than bigger places, even though people move in and out because of rehab stays or changes in health. The place has both private and semi-private rooms, updated after some recent renovations, and includes lounges and areas where residents can be active indoors and outdoors, although detailed features, such as a pool or fitness center, aren't described anywhere, so some things are left unknown, and that goes for things like parking, laundry, and housekeeping too, with no clear pet policy either.
Residents get individualized care plans from skilled nurses and therapy staff who are there day and night, and they receive full-service dining, as well as diet-friendly meals, physical therapy, and occupational therapy as needed, especially for those managing Alzheimer's or other memory disorders, and the team aims to help residents get back on their feet or stay comfortable, depending on what each person needs. The building has accessibility features, but the details about those aren't listed, and the place follows infection control procedures, though past reports have pointed out problems like late reporting of suspected abuse, failure to protect some residents from harm, and infection prevention issues, with a nurse turnover rate at 38.9% and a staffing level of 2.98 nurse hours for each resident daily, which puts the place about average for long-term care and a little below average for rehab outcomes.
The community runs under ALIYA Healthcare, with a for-profit, private status, but still participates in both Medicare and Medicaid, and is open 24/7. The law protects residents here no matter their gender identity, orientation, or income source. Even though it's not part of a full continuing care retirement community, ALIYA of Evanston does try to offer a wide mix of health care and social programs that fit with independent living or those needing more help, so people can find a level of care that fits them, but, like many facilities, things change often, and not every amenity or service is guaranteed at all times.
