Aperion Care Wesley, also called Wesley Place, sits at 1415 W Foster Ave in Chicago's Uptown neighborhood, and serves as a nursing home with a wide range of care levels for older adults, including long-term skilled nursing, memory care, and psychiatric rehabilitation, so people with dementia, Alzheimer's, or mental health needs can get help in a safe and secured memory unit, and hospice care is here too for those needing end-of-life support, while qualified staff help with daily needs like bathing, grooming, dressing, toileting, wound care, and medication management, and nurses can give diabetic injections and other complex medical care onsite, so residents don't have to leave for routine medical attention. Short-term stays for post-surgery rehab are available, along with therapies for physical, occupational, speech, respiratory, or stroke recovery, with therapy equipment right at the facility, and for people needing a break or family caregivers wanting temporary help, respite care is offered as well. The building holds studio apartments and brings house-keeping, laundry, and medication distribution services, with affordable senior housing as part of its options, but there's no information about air conditioning, outdoor space, or pets, and while residents can connect with others thanks to social events, outings, and worship services, parking isn't guaranteed and specific exterior or interior details aren't listed, but there's a bistro, lounge, library, media rooms, arts and crafts room, and a place for beauty/barber services, with amenities like a coffee shop and Wi-Fi, all aiming to make life smoother for residents and their guests. People can enjoy life enrichment programs, senior connections activities, and community transportation, and there's support for people facing legal protections related to housing, employment, and public accommodations, including strong LGBTQ rights in the area. While it's connected with home care services too, the main focus stays on providing safe, comprehensive services under the Aperion Care® trademark for those who need long-term living, memory support, or specialized psychiatric care, though the property is off the market and not listed for sale or rent, and reviews show a moderate score of 3.6 out of 22 ratings, reflecting various experiences people have had at this healthcare facility.
Aperion Care Wesley
1415 W Foster Ave, Chicago, IL, 60640- Assisted living
- Memory care
- Skilled nursing
Warm staff but chronic understaffing
I'm torn - the CNAs, nurses and therapists were often warm, professional and did excellent rehab; the place is clean, private rooms are nice, shuttle and activities are helpful, and staff genuinely care. But chronic understaffing and poor communication undermined care: unanswered calls, hard-to-arrange visits, irregular/less therapy since an ownership change, and unresponsive management. The building is dated (small rooms, temperature/odor issues) and food/activities are hit-or-miss. I'd return only if staffing, documentation and family updates improve.
