Amazing Grace Senior Living stands as a self-owned senior care facility in Chicago, offering assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care, respite care, and Medicare/Rehab services all under one roof, and you can see there's a dedication to staff training since they keep up with courses on safe transfers and continued education, which means people like Grace Sondermann, a PA-S1 from Marquette University, and Twisha Desai, RN, who leads as Director of Nursing, play active roles in care, while Jo Bernero handles the Sales Director duties and Ronald B Hayes leads the kitchen as Culinary Director, so the staff covers all kinds of care and living help for seniors, and for memory care, there's a secure, homey setting with tailored programs for folks with Alzheimer's and dementia, and the community is tucked inside a three-story building, outfitted with both safety features-like handicapped-accessible areas and a sprinkler system-and thoughtfully renovated private rooms with bathrooms, plus there's a real historic feel because there are 19th-century stained-glass windows and a chapel, so residents get some quiet and peaceful space for reflection, and you'll find places like a dining room, fitness center, salon/barbershop, studio or one-bedroom apartments, and a game room, along with modern touches such as WiFi, cable TV, kitchens or kitchenettes, laundry, and efficient housekeeping, with washers and dryers always handy, and you see right away that pets are allowed, which makes the place a bit more lively and comfortable.
For medical and daily life needs, the staff offers medication management, personal care aides, support with walking or wheelchairs, and there are transportation services for trips or appointments, and because social life matters here, there's a full program of social, educational, and entertainment events, with a focus on making it easy for people to form friendships since the community keeps a friendly and welcoming spirit, and residents who need extra help living on their own get respectful support so they can stay independent as long as possible, and for those in memory care, the guiding principle is privacy and an individualized approach, so every resident feels known and safe. Amenities keep things lively, whether it's in the theater room, art studio, bistro, or out on peaceful walking trails; seniors can find ways to stay active and keep up hobbies, and on-site partners like Symbria bring pharmacy services, physical therapy, and wellness programs right to the building, while Hansa Medical Groupe offers concierge-style medical services.
The building has advanced air ventilation, antimicrobial cleaning methods, and virtual pharmacy kiosks, which shows a push for health and safety, and you can even take a virtual tour if you're curious, so everything from security to everyday comforts is considered here, and as a non-denominational Christian-based community, everyone is welcome, giving the place a calm, open feel, and with easy guest parking, online scheduling for consultations, and a maintenance-free lifestyle, residents can focus on living comfortably and safely, with a variety of studio and one-bed units to choose from, all while staying close to Chicago's cafes, shops, and outdoor spaces, so you know a resident will find what he or she needs, whether that's care, community, or quiet time.
