The Oasis at Hartman Lakes (Summer 2024)

The Oasis at Hartman Lakes in Shiloh, Illinois, sits at 1045 Eventide Dr and opens in July 2024 and while the building is new, the services cover everything from independent living all the way to skilled nursing and memory care, so if someone needs help with daily things like getting dressed, taking medicines, eating, or just wants company and a social setting, this place has staff to help with that too, and what really stands out is the way they've got different types of care all under one roof, so folks with dementia or Alzheimer's get special programs and secure areas with 24-hour support, while those just looking for a simple, active lifestyle find modern apartments, in both one and two bedroom options, with walk-in showers, big closets, designer lights, full-sized washers and dryers, granite counters, and stainless steel appliances; and the community itself is quite lively, with things like a big swimming pool, a fitness area, a card and social room, a theater, a golf simulator, a restaurant and bar right on the property, six gambling machines, and even a huge TV for watching games, not to mention they're fine with pets, which isn't always the case elsewhere, so folks who've got a dog or a cat don't need to worry, and for those who want to stay busy there are plenty of planned activities, events, and memory-enhancing programs, and whether someone's there for independent living with just a bit of extra support, or needs round-the-clock medical care and nursing in a suite-style room with help for wound care or rehab, the Oasis aims to keep things as easy and comfortable as possible, and even offers short-term respite care so caregivers can get a break, and while it's connected to other Hartman Lakes facilities like the Villas and has partnerships for even broader care, all the different service levels-from the active 55+ midrise apartments to the assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing-are built so residents can stay in one community as their needs change, without having to move around town, and if someone's looking for a place where the staff are known to be friendly and there's always something to do, whether it's swimming, dining, or just sitting with others in a pretty new building, The Oasis at Hartman Lakes covers most needs without a lot of fuss or hype.
