Independent Living in Illinois

Illinois' independent living communities offer a balance between compassionate senior care services and maintaining the independence of their residents as they continue the activities of daily life. Independent living communities are located throughout the state, with each offering different amenities and services to their residents. The average cost of residence in an independent living facility in Illinois ranges between $1500 and $2500 each month, though there may be additional charges from the facility/community. This cost may vary based on the city or surrounding area, the type of unit an individual selects, and the services that the facility offers. While moving into an independent living or retirement community can be a major decision for seniors and their families, comparing all the information on available options can help people find the best place for their needs.

 

What to Expect from an Illinois Independent Living Center

Independent living communities are senior living communities (designated for residents above a specific age) that offer residents a balance between independence and support in living their daily lives. These facilities typically offer private apartments or housing units, as opposed to nursing homes which may only offer residents a private room. Independent living communities also offer their residents with services and amenities, including on-site dining, transportation services, and social activities in many cases. While some independent living facilities may offer assisted living facilities for people with disabilities, complex health histories, or memory loss, these are not necessarily the case at each independent living facility; in many cases, they may not be offered at all. People with questions should as the staff at a given location whether or not these programs are offered or at what additional cost they are offered.
