Assisted Living & Memory Care · Riverton, IL
Country Lane Memory Care is a 30-bed community at 875 Riverton Road in Riverton, Illinois. Owned by Country Lane Memory Care Assisted Living Inc., the facility serves Sangamon County with a focus on early-to-middle stage Alzheimer’s and dementia care. The campus provides a mission-driven, residential model specializing in life-history-based activities tailored to each resident’s personal background.
eAdherence to the Illinois Assisted Living and Shared Housing Establishment Act ensures the community meets state standards for dementia care. While the facility carries a history of strong performance, including prior perfect state surveys and 2019 workplace recognition, 2026 data shows a current citations-per-inspection rate of 9.0, which is 157% above the Illinois state average.
Although a March 2025 licensure survey resulted in zero deficiencies, subsequent 2025 investigations identified gaps in dietitian services, Satisfaction Survey requirements, and safe evacuation staffing thresholds. No fines or enforcement actions appear in the current record. Clinical Profile and StaffingProfessional medical oversight is managed 24/7 by licensed nurses and CNAs who coordinate specialized memory support and daily physical assistance.
The clinical model integrates on-site salon services and individualized care plans, while also offering an adult day care program for up to four participants. Following a mid-2025 review that found night shift staffing insufficient for evacuation needs, the facility began active recruitment for additional night CNAs and medication aides to meet safety standards. Recent feedback from April 2026 highlights a friendly and accommodating environment with residents expressing high satisfaction with the food and activities.
The campus features private and semi-private rooms alongside country-style common areas, including a theater and a secure activity room. All-inclusive monthly services cover restaurant-style dining with three meals and all-day snacks, weekly housekeeping, and personal laundry.
Shared spaces include:Secure outdoor courtyards and landscaped patios designed for safe exploration. The social calendar is managed by an activity director to provide cognitive stimulation and creative engagement, while scheduled transportation is available for local needs in the Riverton area. With a Walk Score of 40, the facility is centrally located, allowing for pedestrian access to nearby city services.
Individuals seeking a small-scale, reputable dementia care setting in Sangamon County may find this community appropriate. Because recent surveys noted gaps in specialized services, prospective residents and their representatives should visit the campus directly to verify that a qualified dietitian is now under contract and that current staffing ratios align with resident evacuation requirements.
