Franciscan Village

charming community offers a peaceful and sprawling yet insulated campus with a range of living options. Whether your loved one requires professional memory care or occasional assistance, Franciscan Village offers services that suit them. The community has studio and one- and two-bedroom apartments, as well as free-standing ranch homes for the independent senior.

The community has skilled nurses and memory support professionals available around the clock, with a higher than average nurse-to-resident ratio.

Only 27 miles from downtown Chicago, the community also has plenty to keep residents active, including a salon, fitness studio, game room, and library. An ornate chapel offers Mass just a leisurely walk from the residencies. Residents can take a meditative journey along the Stations of the Cross path, with beautiful carved images to reflect upon at each stop.

A great new home for mom

A wonderful place for my mom that offers a new apartment that features a fresh take on all of the things she loved about her old house. She loves going to daily mass, walks around the facility along with plenty of things to do. She is thriving there & we are grateful!

It's quiet, peaceful, clean. Staff is very nice and helpful. We picked this community because our Uncle is quieter and religious.

Happy with our Choice Caregivers very thoughtful to patient needs

The staff are all very friendly and courteous. Going off of what my dad says about the food. the portions are not big enough and the dining area is only open for an hour. The elderly need more time to eat.

Our Experience

I would definitely recommend the assisted living. Smaller --1st floor residents. The 2nd floor is retired nuns residents. Dining room is shared by both 1st and 2nd floor at different times. They have an onsite chef and a nice variety of food to choose from. Plenty of activities, if they choose to participate. There is a chapel in the same building. For Catholics, it is a perfect location.

Outstanding food and service, new resident of 3 months

The food is outstanding. You order off a menu like in a restaurant with real silverware and dishes and tablecloths. They are also very covid conscious. They have comfortable rooms with your own bathroom that is accessible. The facility is also very clean. I would recommend Franciscan Village to others, but I do not know if they have any openings right now.

Our tour experience

Our family had an in person tour and the Franciscan Village would have been our first choice but at the time they had no spaces available. It is a very nice facility and very close to our entire family. The community is a little closer to what we were hoping for in terms of expectations. They had a lot of things about it that we really liked. One being that it is spiritually driving and our loved one is Catholic. We thought she would have really enjoyed that.

Helpful, Compassionate, and Caring

I would tell people that this was a safe and secure place for your loved one. This would be a safe community for your parent or loved one. They took great care of keeping COVID out of the community for the residents.

Concerned Family member

I think it is ridiculous that my family has to be worried because during this CRISIS they are still admitting new people!!! No other places are accepting new move ins, so why is this place putting everyone even more at risk and really proper screening? I heard all they do is take temperatures now what good is that if some people lag on sympt. This place needs to get their stuff together because right about now it looks like pockets are more important than the residents & staff!!!!!!! I will not be giving my name! I already talked to someone from MTH and was not helpful so sharing my experience with others.

Poor management

I’ve never seen a place with such horrible management. For as much money as we pay, the director does not know what she is doing. You can never get in touch with her and waiting for a reply can take weeks. She is unprofessional and as beautiful as this facility once was she is making it lose its value.

Assisted living unit 200

If your loved one is someone who needs to be social and active I wouldn’t recommend this assisted living unti 200. I visit my mother very often and I hardly see any activities going on. I’m not sure how the activities work but I hardly see anyone. I will see the activitee aide and she seems to be on her computer more than with residents. The staff is great otherwise and I’m very happy with the care provided.

Very disappointed

This is a pretty place but ... I was visiting a friends mother and was shocked I didn’t want to make my friend feel bad but, I found some of aides at the assisted living are not nice at all. Very lazy , they yell at the residents I saw one lady ask to be pushed in her wheelchair and an aide say you have to find someone else. I don’t want that treatment for my mother!!! Definitely not at that price. Very disappointed for a catholic facility to be so unkind They don’t have much activity either.

Great independent living - not so much for assisted

While looking at various options for my love one I found that this community has a different caliber of people compared to what my relative needed. If you are someone that needs a place for independent living, than this is a wonderful facility. I would rate them a 4.5 for that section there. They have a Chapel there and it’s phenomenal. However, the assisted living or nursing care looks like an old hospital in those sections. If people are desperate with finding a place for their love ones and have someone look after them, I can understand why they would choose this community. However, this place was not a good fit for my love one.

A tour for care

We toured this community for my parents. The staff was nice and they did answer the questions that we had. We liked the menu of the meals that are offered. We liked the activities that would have been helpful for both my parents. We would recommend that families tour this community for the care of a loved one and the value that is offered.

Gorgeous place!

Franciscan Village was beautiful! I think my father would have been very happy here, but it was expensive. If it was not for the price, we would have made this place a top choice.
