Aspen Woods of Vernon Hills

Aspen Woods of Vernon Hills sits at 500 Atrium Dr, Vernon Hills, IL, and serves as a senior living community mainly for assisted living and memory care, though folks can get hospice and respite care if they need it, and what's clear is that memory care stands at the heart of what goes on around here because there's a whole memory care program designed with safety, structure, dignity, connection, and purpose built into daily life, a place where people with memory loss get help from a compassionate team with monthly training focused just on dementia care so everyone gets a care plan tailored for their unique needs, whether it's help with bathing, dressing, meals, medications, or just having someone there to keep life safe and routine. Residents have access to nurses on site and on call, and staff work around the clock, with a Memory Care specialist and dedicated support staff making sure things run smooth because a big part of daily life involves staying active and social through exercise, chair yoga, tai chi, trivia games, craft activities, movie nights, cards and community outings, or just time in the courtyard, outdoor activity space, or inside the arts and crafts room, library, café, and Wi-Fi equipped spaces, and meals come prepared by a culinary team aiming for both health and enjoyment, and if you need your hair done there's a beauty/barber shop too. Apartments here come as studio or companion types for both men and women, they're barrier-free and wheelchair accessible with walk-in showers, and you've got pet-friendly policies-though some details like fees or parking aren't listed-plus people get help with chores like laundry and cleaning thanks to the maintenance team keeping the place clean and welcoming. The whole environment aims to be flexible, positive, and even a bit fun, so residents feel involved and engaged even with memory problems, and there's a calendar packed with social events to encourage friendships and purpose. Aspen Woods allows both men and women but no smoking anywhere indoors, accepts folks with a range of incomes and protects against discrimination of any sort, including for LGBTQ individuals, and holds current licensing and verification. Though details about outside areas and costs aren't published, Aspen Woods offers secure, caring, resident-centered living for those who need help because of memory decline, all run under Sona Senior Living.
