RYZE at Homewood

RYZE at Homewood sits on 19000 S Halsted St in Homewood, IL, and offers several types of care like rehabilitation, skilled nursing, and memory care for people with memory loss, and what folks usually notice right away is how the staff, including Nurse Michelle, take time to really pay attention and help, showing lots of patience and understanding, which means residents see staff who try hard to anticipate needs and show a solid bedside manner, and when people are coming out of the hospital or surgery, there's a focus on making sure their move feels easy and their recovery stays smooth, with the clinical and therapy teams working to set up care plans that fit what each person needs, whether the stay is short-term or long-term. You'll find private and semi-private rooms, each with a private bathroom, air conditioning, cable TV, a kitchenette, telephone, and Wi-Fi, which makes things comfortable, and the place offers housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning, and move-in help, all of which helps make life easier. There's a game room, movie theater, fitness room, arts and crafts room, library, and a spa/wellness area, plus outdoor spaces with gardens and walking paths if you want to get some fresh air, listen to music or maybe join in outdoor programs, and while residents can join activities every day-like movie nights and music or arts programs-there's also plenty of chances for community or family councils to speak up and help improve things. RYZE at Homewood has a kitchen where a professional chef makes meals with different diets in mind like allergies or diabetes, and meals come restaurant-style in a dining room so people can eat together. The center offers scheduled transportation and has parking for convenience, and people who need memory care or assistance with daily tasks like dressing, medication, or bathing get that support from a team on hand as much as 12-16 hours a day, with a call system always on for 24 hours, which gives families some peace of mind. The facility is a Continuing Care Retirement Community, so people can move between different types of care or housing without leaving the community, and this flexibility often helps make transitions easier over time. RYZE at Homewood accepts Medicaid and Medicare, which sometimes helps residents and their families afford care, and it's close to South Suburban Hospital and St James Medical Center Olympia Fields for extra medical needs. Ratings show people generally feel positive, with a current average of 4.4 stars, and the place stays open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., letting families visit and connect when they need to.
