Assisted Living at Franciscan Village is a 34-bed senior living community situated at 11400 Theresa Drive in Lemont, Illinois. Managed by Franciscan Communities, Inc., this nonprofit, faith-based organization serves Cook County within a larger continuing care campus that integrates independent living and skilled nursing. The community operates under a mission-driven model, offering residents a full spectrum of care levels to support aging in place.
Adherence to Illinois’s Assisted Living and Shared Housing Establishment Act ensures the community provides 24-hour medical supervision and specialized care coordination. While assisted living components do not receive federal CMS star ratings, current 2026 filings show the community maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of zero based on its most recent standard licensure surveys. A December 2025 complaint investigation found the facility in full compliance, with no recorded fines or enforcement actions in the current cycle. Monthly costs for studio apartments start at approximately $3,410, though the facility does not explicitly list Medicaid acceptance in available 2026 data.
Professional medical teams, including licensed nurses and certified assistants, are on-site 24/7 to manage medication protocols, diabetic monitoring, and activities of daily living. The clinical model incorporates “Franciscan Care Solutions,” which provides personalized rehabilitation and short-term respite care tailored to individual functional goals. Residents in the memory care neighborhood benefit from specialized engagement programs and secure environments designed to promote safety and cognitive health. The community also coordinates with visiting physicians and psychiatric partners to ensure a comprehensive healthcare continuum.
The campus features a variety of floor plans, including private studios and one-bedroom units equipped with emergency response systems and safety-focused bathrooms. All-inclusive monthly fees cover restaurant-style dining with locally sourced meals, weekly housekeeping, and personal laundry services.
A wellness center, a library, an on-site chapel for daily Mass, and a full-service beauty salon. Residents enjoy secure landscaped courtyards and walking paths, while the social calendar is anchored by the “Wellbeing” and “Engagement” program pillars, featuring daily exercise classes and cultural outings. For local medical visits and shopping, the facility provides scheduled transportation to ensure residents remain connected to the Lemont area.
Older adults seeking a mission-driven, faith-based environment with a clean regulatory record and tiered care levels may find this campus appropriate. To assess the current atmosphere and quality performance, prospective residents should contact the administrator directly to request staffing disclosures and schedule a tour of the residential neighborhoods.

The campus is centrally located with a Walk Score of 71, making it one of the most accessible downtown settings in the region.
State oversight is provided by the Illinois Department of Public Health, as the facility is exempt from the federal CMS star rating system. Current 2026 data shows the community maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of zero. This record is based on a September 2025 incident investigation that found the facility in full compliance with all state health and safety regulations.

The care model utilizes 24-hour staffing, including licensed nurses and CNAs, to provide personalized physical and cognitive support. Clinical services are designed to maximize resident independence while ensuring specialized oversight for those in the memory care wing. The medical team manages medication administration and daily hygiene assistance, tailoring protocols to each resident’s changing health status.
Residents reside in a purpose-built environment that prioritizes easy access to downtown Morrison’s shops and services.
The all-inclusive monthly model covers essential services such as professional housekeeping and laundry. Specific floor plans and amenities should be verified directly with the community, as current data focuses on the clinical and regulatory aspects of the recent 2025 licensure.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Illinois
What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Illinois?
Assisted living in Illinois supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.
What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Illinois?
Assisted living in Illinois is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.
Does Illinois Medicaid cover assisted living?
Illinois Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Illinois) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
What is assisted living?
Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.
How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?
This page features 73 assisted living facilities in Illinois. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.
How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Illinois?
Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Illinois, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.
What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Illinois?
Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
