Burr Ridge Senior Living sits in a quiet suburb of Chicago, where seniors find a calm place to live with many support options. The community offers independent living for those who want to stay active and social, assisted living for folks who need a bit of help with things like bathing and medicine, and memory care for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia. The staff-trained in areas like Alzheimer's and medication management-stay on duty around the clock, and residents can use a 24-hour emergency call system for peace of mind. Burr Ridge has different apartment layouts including studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units, with extra room in on-site cottages that have garages and private areas for those preferring a homelike setting.
There are lots of community spaces like a community room for book clubs and games, a Sky Lounge where people gather for happy hours, Bible studies, therapy dog visits, and Scrabble, and even an in-house theater for movie nights. A wellness center with gym equipment and exercise classes lets residents stay healthy, and there are plenty of quiet spots like a small library and a garden for fresh air. The dining room serves restaurant-style meals with rotating menus, fresh regional produce, and options for special diets, and there's always help available for housekeeping and laundry so no one worries about chores. Burr Ridge makes room for pets like small dogs and cats in both independent and assisted living, so animal lovers have company. Memory care has extra safety features, including alert staff and secure outdoor areas to prevent wandering, as well as Montessori-based activities and spaces to keep residents engaged.
Transportation is provided for errands, appointments, and outings, and there's a beauty salon and computer center on hand, too. The community keeps people connected through daily activities, art sessions, themed events, and group efforts like joining the Walk to End Alzheimer's. Residents are encouraged to take part in things according to their interests, and Burr Ridge adjusts care as people's needs change so aging in place is possible. The whole place feels comfortable, with private bedrooms, modern kitchens, and community areas both inside and out, so seniors can feel at home and worry less about daily tasks. Burr Ridge Senior Living aims for a friendly, safe, and lively environment for seniors who want a blend of independence and support in a traditional, home-like setting.
