Grand Lifestyles

30 day minimum stay

Yes you do not have to worry about running out of money 90% of the place is public aid. That is why this is not assisted living,wheelchairs/walkers people who can't even go to the bathroom by themselves.A lot of oxygen/hospice.catheters.Forget this place,this only shows me that the company is interested in the money.Assisted Living is not this place/plus it drags down the few good people they have

Disappointing. Impersonal. Although this facility seemed to run smoothly, I didn't get the feeling of personal care and concern for residents that I was looking for. Didn't seem too accommodating either.

I am very disappointed in this facility. I have noticed what appears to be interference with the healthcare decisions of residents. It is my opinion that they do not have the best interests of seniors at heart. I would not recommend this facility to others.

The management here isn't very good, they don't address tenants concerns. They won't answer my calls, and I have even been hung up on. There is a lot of wear and tear to the building, and there were a lot of things they told me would get done or fixed before I moved in, it's been several months, and it's never been done. The cleanliness is lacking, there are places in here I won't go because the chairs are dirty and stained. When I go to the dining room sometimes I have to wipe down my chair before I can sit down, because there is food in it. I have a concern about the safety of the food as well, the temperature is not safe, in my opinion, they have no fans or way to cool it down, and they don't wash the melons before they cut them up. I have been getting ill lately, and when I found out about the fruit I stopped eating it and have been feeling much better. They were supposed to turn the air conditioning off in the beginning of October, but they turned it off early. It's still over eighty degrees outside, and even warmer in my apartment, they won't turn it back on. I have a very noisy tenant above me making noises at 2 and 4 in the morning, I have had to adjust my sleeping hours around that. They said they were going to move them or me to a different room, and that hasn't happened yet. I would say if you are thinking of going here, think twice, a lot of people are leaving, and it's not cheap for what you get.

I DO NOT recommend Victory Centre in Bartlett IL. I suggest that you look around carefully prior to sending your loved one to Victory Centre in Bartlett IL. The staff to patient ratio is clearly too high. My sister was diagnosed with dementia which lead her to become a resident of Victory Centre for 1 year. In that timeframe I emailed management several times asking for my sister to be reminded of meals as often she would forget to go down on her own at mealtime and would later call me saying she was hungry and missed the meal. During Covid I was not allowed enter the facility to visit my sister to see what condition she was in. I only saw her in limited outdoor visits where she was typically dressed in same clothes, not sure if a change of clothes was ever suggested or assisted. Approximately two months ago on [date removed] I was called to the emergency room to find out my sister was passed out unconscious on the floor of her room for an unknown amount of time. Upon my arrival at the Emergency room I was told by the Emergency room doctor that my sister had Sepsis, likely a result of aspirating her own vomit while unconscious on the floor of her room at Victory Centre. In addition to Sepsis she also had Pneumonia and Urinary tract Infections all of these combined led to Congestive Heart failure. As a result of this health trauma, I was told that night she was not expected to survive overnight. However, she did pull through her but her heart, brain and general health severely declined. I contacted the Director at Victory Center to advise her I must immediately terminate my sisters stay at Victory Center and move her to another facility with more 1:1 care due to her declined health. According to the contract I signed I was able to do this and surely after a near death experience this should be allowed. The Director then called and debated with me that she felt my sister could still stay at Victory even with the severely declined health and therefore I could not remove her without 30 days PAID notice. After this debate, I gave this notice on [date removed] and my Sister was billed for the 30 days notice on [date removed]. On [date removed] I discovered that additional money was withdrawn by Victory Centre from my sisters account above and beyond the 30 days notice payment. I contacted the Director about this who immediately referred me to business manager. The business manager did not bother to respond back to me for 32 days. On day 32, I was told my sister was not only responsible for 30 days but also an additional 4 days from [dates removed] based on their billing cycle. Which clearly she cannot afford. I typically would not write a bad review for anything however what my sister has been through and this general situation definitely warrants it and my hope is others do not have to go through a situation such as this.

This is not a place for your pets let alone for a loved one; I allowed them to move my sister-in-law there last year and it was the worst facility she had been in; she lost 15lbs in the two months and 5 days of her stay; the worst food, the worst nursing staff--do not take your love one to Coles.

it would of been a great thing for my mom who is almost 94, but they told me we needed a year of money, shes 94 for god sake

If you love your parent do not put them in this home. They lie to you like there is no tomorrow. They tell you a nurse is on every floor when it is a CNA who is in charge of several floors . They have leaky windows were water is running down the walls and mold is developing. People are told they have to transfer their doctor to the staff doctor. He does not believe in giving them any pain pills if they need it. Sit in the caferteria area and talk to the people who live there to find out what is going on. There is no manager after 5;00 and No manager on the weekends. the gal who sits at the front desk is in charge. My guess is she makes 10.00 an hour.

This place is a disgrace. These reviews are fake. There are absolutely no pros, only cons. There is only a doctor there ONE day a week and most of the time patients still won't get a chance to see him when they're scheduled to. The staff is lazy and horrible. My grandmother is blind and fell on the floor and she managed to pull the call light. No one came for over 6 HOURS later and she was lying on the floor in pain the entire time. She had to stay in the hospital for a while after that. The bad stories about this place are endless. Needless to say, I wouldn't wish this place on my worst enemy.

DO NOT PUT YOUR LOVED ONES HERE IF THEY HAVE MEMORY LOSS!! Staff is not trained, and does not take the time to care for them. I understand they "ACCEPT" them. THEY DO NOT CATER TO THEM AT ALL, and when you bring up an issue to the Director [Removed] You get told you're making her job difficult. My Grandma is there, and she is found wandering the halls, and terrified, confused, and lost. They need to stop taking in residents that they cannot care for. If I could afford a lawyer, She would NOT be here!!

The apartment and amenities were exactly what I was looking for in an assisted living community. Unfortunately, they were understaffed and the care provided did not meet her everyday needs. There were many issues with the lack of care they provided for my mother. They failed to follow through with helping her in and out of the bed, transport needs and personal hygiene. Ended up removing my loved one from community, needs a lot of improvement

Not a bad facility if your relatively independent. If yo need help with anything your taking your chances. They say they will assist to end of life care but they are not at all equipt, trained, nor staffed well enough to do so. Moved our mom out when her needs escalated. She was neglected, intimidated and bullied when she started asking for more help. Most. The AIDS had no idea what they were to do with her on a Daly basis. After she left there her health improved a lot and she was so much calmer. They apologize a lot and agree with the complaints but nothing changes. Sadly a lot of people are not getting their needs met there. This facility is on a watch list by the dept of senior services. But they don't do much either.

I was very disappointed that they no longer employ their activity director. We chose this facility due to the energy that this lady had for the residents and activities. My mom really enjoyed the personal attention and events she planned. Unfortunately we are seeking out a new place for mom one that can keep her active again.

The staff at this facility, and apparently corporate, [removed] They do not have the best interests of the residents at heart, and [removed] I am very disappointed in this facility and would not recommend it to others.

Be VERY careful when coming to the VIctory Center if your parent is looking for simple assisted living and you are looking for a place that adjusts with your parents's needs as they progress. Our mom stayed here for quite some time and the CNA's are very nice. They work hard to deliver great care to your parents and of course that is very important! However, it's the management that you have to worry about. When we spoke to them before mom went to live there, she needed minimal care but that wasn't always going to be the case. They spoke of the Victory Center as the last place mom would have to move to. She could stay until the end. They could take care of her even when she was in a situation where she needed to be in a nursing home. They would progress with her. This is not the case. When they feel they are being cheated with the money, they (the management) will have zero regard for your parents. They could care less about them and will kick them out with no notice stating that they need too much care. You can sue them, but the cost to hire a lawyer is astronomical and they know that. It's very sad. Mom is in a great place now, but a difficult thing to go through. So, if you do go to Victory Center, know your parent will get great care from the staff, but get promises made by management in writing. Wish we had...

My mother lives at victory center I can attest that this place is terrible. They are understaffed and theCNAs do not know anything other than to call 911.The food is very bad ,small portion's ,soups are salty and watered down the kitchen always runs out of lemons,rye breads,coffee you get the idea.These people need more help than the staff can give. I would not recommend to anyone.

If I could rate the Concorde with less than one star, I would. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE. We were shown a room in independent living with a great view and told that this would be my dad's room. Also... that furnishings included a television and that furnishings (because the deposit was so high) "belonged to the resident." The staff was friendly and caring -- BEFORE my father signed the lease. They sold us the moon and stars before we signed. After the lease? The room did NOT include a television. The room with a great view was NOT the room my father was assigned. Staff did not return calls. The room he got still had dentures from the prior resident on the bathroom sink and it was FILTHY. Niiice. The staff was absent, disengaged, didn't return calls and was overall unfriendly and overworked. Nothing in this place works. Elevators break constantly. Homeless veterans (too young to be in senior housing! WTF!) are living there and they smoke and drink in their rooms. Staff does nothing. My father was admitted to the hospital two weeks into his $1400/month lease and died three weeks into the lease. Considering we paid $2800+ for the deposit and because he had a special diet, he wasn't eating much (which contributed to his DEATH!) so we called "Dave" - the "nice" guy who was so friendly and "kind" to us when he admitted my dad. We asked if we could get even a small credit ($700). We didn't get a call back from Dave...we didn't get a freaking condolence note...we didn't get a "Thank you for choosing us" letter. We didn't get a "Screw you!" letter. We got A COPY OF THE LEASE in the mail and a scrawled note that the lease says they get all the money. We weren't questioning what was in the lease. My father lived there three weeks. We paid them two months' rent. When I suggested we keep the furniture instead, they said "Oh no! That's not YOURS!" as if they had amnesia. Bottom line...avoid this at all costs.
