Axelson Manor sits in Northbrook, Illinois, at 2195 Foxglove Dr in the Shermerville area, where it serves as a retirement home for seniors looking for assisted living, independent living, and memory care. The property brings 58 single bedroom or studio apartment units with full appliances and private ADA compliant bathrooms, letting each person feel at home in a secure setting. Seniors get help with daily tasks like dressing, bathing, and eating, plus support with medicine, diabetic care, and Parkinson's assistance thanks to 24/7 awake staff who're ready for emergencies. If anyone needs help with continence, fall prevention features, or medication, that's available, and the team offers aid with personal care and housekeeping so residents spend less time on chores and more time enjoying their days. There's transportation to help seniors get out for errands or appointments, and if family members drive over, there's parking for them as well.
Every unit comes with apartment security, and each building has a 24-hour call for aid button for quick help. Routine physician health assessments and ongoing screenings keep a constant eye on everyone's wellbeing, while tailored support covers unique needs for those with Alzheimer's or specific care needs like mobility, continence, or dressing. People can join family support groups, and relatives are part of the community through special event parties and open visiting. Axelson Manor also offers exercise rooms, walking paths outdoors, and decks for getting fresh air. Each day brings entertainment choices, live music, arts and crafts classes, choral performances, and a LifeConnect program that helps people try different interests. The dining hall serves healthy meals, and there's a beauty and barbershop on-site. Regular housekeeping and linen service free up more time for hobbies and community activities.
Nearby, there are coffee shops, grocery stores, pharmacies, restaurants, banks, and places of worship. The property sits among local parks, golf courses, museums, and gardens, with Lake Michigan in the vicinity, so there's a lot of natural beauty close to home. Some apartments have views of these green spaces. In addition to guided support for daily living, residents get to live as independently as possible, with services there when needed but a strong focus placed on letting everyone choose their own routines. Multiple payment options and available floor plans help families find the right fit. Axelson Manor aims to provide a safe, simple, and pleasant place for seniors wanting a peaceful retirement or needing more personal care in Northbrook.
