Avenues at Quad Cities

Avenues at Quad Cities sits in Silvis, Illinois, and gives seniors many options including assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and home care, so folks can move between levels of care as their needs change, with different facility names like Aspen Health Care Center, New Perspective Silvis, Hope Creek Care Center, Heritage Woods of Moline, Bickford of Moline, Heartland Health Care Center Moline, and Riverview Manor Nursing Home, which all work together as part of the same community, and there's even Ridgewood Towers and Park Vista - North Hill for more living choices. The place has full-time activity directors who actually plan things like trips and outings, church services, pet therapy, cards and games, resident councils, dress-up days, family gatherings, and live entertainment, so there's always something happening, and the devotional services onsite are there for folks who want them. Residents who need help with daily activities get it, whether that's bathing, dressing, or transfers, and the staff also helps with medication management and non-ambulatory care, plus there's a 24-hour call system for emergencies. There are cozy living areas, private bathrooms, kitchenettes, and even cable, Wi-Fi, and telephones in the rooms, so comfort isn't an afterthought, and the place provides high-speed internet and fully furnished rooms for those who need it. Seniors get three meals a day, with dining choices including restaurant-style dining, special diets, and a chef on hand, and guests can join for meals if they want to. Folks can use the beauty salon, fitness room, spa and sauna, game and art rooms, library, garden, and outdoor walking paths, with scheduled daily activities and movie nights on the calendar, and the gardening space feels peaceful and quiet. Community-operated transportation and rides for medical and non-medical needs make getting out and about easier, and when people need help after a hospital stay, post-acute recovery and rehab care are available, so folks aren't left without support. Medicaid is accepted, making this a more reachable choice for some, and for those needing a short stay, respite care is offered. There are special programs for memory care if someone has cognitive needs, and specialized onsite and telepsychiatric services for mental health conditions like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, plus addiction specialist services and psychotherapy, which isn't something you see everywhere. Residents get a say, as the council lets families and residents talk through issues with management, aiming to improve things. The staff includes nurses and skilled caregivers available around the clock, usually 12-16 hours daily for nursing staff, and the place gets regular inspections for safety and health. With a capacity of 63 beds at the Aspen Rehab & Health Care portion and all the different options in the Arcadia network, Avenues at Quad Cities tries to give personalized care in a safe, welcoming spot, with outings, music programs, and even pet therapy and community volunteer opportunities helping folks feel connected and supported.
