Harvester Place is a memory care community thoughtfully designed and built from the ground up with a singular focus: to optimize the health and well-being of individuals experiencing cognitive impairment. With a strong commitment to person-centered memory care, this community provides specialized programs, an empathetic environment, and a team of highly dedicated staff who are deeply passionate about serving residents with memory loss. Every aspect of Harvester Place is intended to create a true sense of home where each resident is treated as a unique individual, receiving care that respects their life story, specific needs, interests, and abilities.
Located in the beautiful suburb of Burr Ridge, Illinois, Harvester Place brings together a team of seasoned veterans in dementia care, supported by hand-selected professionals in caregiving, dining, and activities. The staff are regarded as the heart and soul of the community, trained not only to provide personalized memory care services, but also to offer encouragement, companionship, and meaningful engagement. They go above and beyond to ensure that every resident feels genuinely loved, respected, and supported at all times. The environment is intentionally designed to balance comfort, safety, and familiarity, with purpose-built spaces including secure courtyards and visual cues that aid residents in navigating their daily lives.
One of the foundational offerings at Harvester Place is the Pathways of Purpose program, which aims to create a life of meaning and fulfillment for every resident. Rather than simply helping residents live with dementia, the program is focused on helping them live life to its fullest by fostering opportunities for recreation, social connection, fun, and personal growth. The community understands that residents thrive when they are provided with opportunities to express their identities, connect with others, make a difference, experience balance, and continue to grow. By getting to know each individual—understanding who they were, who they are, and who they wish to continue being—Harvester Place ensures that each person’s experience is tailored to celebrate their uniqueness.
Harvester Place is more than just a memory care setting; it is a vibrant residential community where every person is treated as family. The ethos of the community is shaped by a philosophy that emphasizes protection, engagement, and love for those living with memory loss.
