All American Village Nursing and Rehabilitation Center sits in the Andersonville neighborhood of Chicago, right at 5448 North Broadway Street in Cook County, which means residents can walk or take the bus with ease, and with a walk score of 94 and transit score of 77, getting around is pretty easy for people who value staying connected to the city. The building goes back to 1962 and has been serving older adults for a long time, offering both short-term rehabilitation and long-term nursing care with a focus on skilled and intermediate needs, and the place has lately gotten some renovations including updates to the rooms and dining area, so people can have both comfort and function during their stay. The center has clear protections and antidiscrimination policies for LGBTQ people, covering housing and employment rights, and staff includes Registered Nurses, Case Manager/Transplant Coordinators, Office Managers, and Certified Nursing Assistants who try to make sure care fits each person's needs.
Residents can join in on group activities like weekly movies, birthday celebrations, and social or spiritual events, and there are communal and family-style dining options-both meant to help folks meet each other and share time over meals. Nursing services run daily, plus four main kinds of clinical care: regular medical checkups, on-site dental, psychiatric, and behavioral care, as well as specialized programs for memory, post-acute, and psychiatric rehabilitation. There's support for activities of daily living, therapy for physical strength, and social services for other life skills, discharge planning, and future placements. Health and wellness are supported by amenities and programs, and mental health management is part of regular care, as are substance abuse prevention efforts.
Staff stay protected with paid holidays, time off, life and pet insurance, and health, dental, vision, and short-term disability coverage, so the center has grown a devoted team, many of whom have been there for years. The property is set up like apartments, with accessible entrances and parking, though details about floor finishes, parking type, and internet or satellite options aren't widely known outside the community, and for folks needing an overnight or extended family visit, hours are from early morning until evening, with some flexibility. COVID-19 safeguards, including vaccinations, masks, and infection control, have been standard since the recent change in ownership and facility rebranding to All American Village Nursing & Rehabilitation Center. Social interaction, family involvement, and personal visits are encouraged every day, and there's a focus on making life both safe and as enjoyable as possible for all residents, whether they're staying for a short recovery or living there long term.
