Imboden Creek Gardens Assisted Living sits on a quiet wooded campus at 185 W. Imboden Drive in Decatur, IL, offering a range of care like independent living, assisted living, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, hospice, and respite care. The facility gives people a choice of private rooms, studios, single units, two-bedroom suites, and condos and townhouses right on the same campus, many with full kitchens, kitchenettes, washers, dryers, cable, Wi-Fi, and built-in safety features like handrails, wheelchair access, sprinkler systems, and emergency call buttons. Folks get restaurant-style dining with three meals a day that can be tailored for different diets, and families or guests can join for meals or even an overnight stay.
Residents receive help with things like bathing, dressing, walking or transferring, toileting, and medication management from registered nurses and certified caregivers, and the staff offers discreet personal care focused on dignity, respect, and each person's needs. The facility handles housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning, snow removal, and other daily chores, and everyone gets access to onsite medical services like nurses, wound care, blood work, occupational, speech, and physical therapy, plus visits from podiatrists, with care teams working closely with a resident's own doctor.
Memory care is a key focus, with programs and activities built for those with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia, and care plans shaped with input from families. There's 24-hour supervision, a call system, and policies for move-in, wait lists, and contracts that families can review. Imboden Creek Gardens lets families request references from current and past residents, and feedback is possible through Olera forums and other platforms.
For staying active, there are game rooms, a fitness center, salon and barber shop, community and activity rooms with TV and computers, library, convenience store, arts and crafts, gardening, walking paths, a bistro, and sunroom. Residents can join in exercise groups like yoga or chair yoga, music groups, holiday activities, movie nights, and religious services right on-site. There are both community-run and staff-led events, so people can connect and make friends at their own pace.
Transportation is free for outings or appointments, and parking's available for residents and guests. Every apartment or room has safety features, and some units are made for non-ambulatory folks or those in wheelchairs. The staff, including men and women, receive memory care training and are available to answer questions or help with any concerns, giving support with a personal touch.
Cost details, financial programs, VA benefits help, references, and other resources are all ready for families to check before deciding.
