Overview of Stillwater Senior Living, LLC

Stillwater Senior Living is an 80-bed assisted living and memory care community at 1111 University Drive in Edwardsville, Illinois. Operated by Stillwater Senior Living, LLC, the faith-based campus serves Madison County with a focus on individualized support through its Assisted Living Suites and dedicated Lakeside Memory Care neighborhood. The facility holds a Walk Score of 85, placing most local errands and university-area amenities within walking distance.

The community is regulated by the Illinois Department of Public Health and maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of 2.0, approximately 43% below the state average. Current 2026 filings show that five out of the six most recent inspections, including the March 2025 annual licensure survey, resulted in zero deficiencies. Although a June 2025 investigation identified a medication communication gap classified as high/actual harm, no fines or further enforcement actions were recorded. Monthly costs for private rooms start at approximately $4,890, and the facility typically operates as a private-pay community.

Medical oversight is available 24/7 through a team of RNs, LPNs, and “Wellness Partners” who manage medication administration and daily physical needs. The clinical model integrates on-call physician services, specialized diabetic management, and scheduled physical therapy to promote aging in place. Within the Lakeside Memory Care wing, staff utilize predictable routines and secured courtyards with wander-management systems to ensure resident safety and emotional stability.

Residences include studio and efficiency layouts equipped with emergency call systems, individual climate controls, and optional balconies or patios. All-inclusive monthly services cover restaurant-style dining with low-sodium and international options, weekly housekeeping, and laundry services.

Shared spaces feature a rustic, cabin-style lounge with fireplaces, a movie theater, a library, and a computer lounge. The life-enrichment calendar is managed by an activity center that organizes yoga, intergenerational programs, and daily outings using the community’s wheelchair-accessible bus. Outdoor amenities include a deck with a fireplace and landscaped walking paths.

Individuals seeking a faith-aligned environment with high walkability and strong nursing oversight may find this setting appropriate. To evaluate the 2026 quality firsthand, prospective residents should visit the campus to discuss current medication communication protocols and tour the Lakeside neighborhood.

Overview of Villas of Holly Brook Collinsville

Villas of Holly Brook Collinsville is an 84-bed senior living community at 121 South Bluff Road in Collinsville, Illinois. Managed by Phillips Investments LLC, this Madison County facility provides a continuum of care including assisted living, memory care, and short-term rehabilitation under a license active through late 2026. The campus is located 1.2 miles from the city center and maintains a moderate Walk Score of 55.

Adherence to Illinois’s Assisted Living and Shared Housing Establishment Act ensures the community provides 24-hour medical supervision and localized healthcare coordination. While state-licensed facilities do not receive federal CMS star ratings, current 2026 filings show a citations-per-inspection rate of 2.0, which is 43% below the state average of 3.5. The facility’s compliance trajectory is notably improving; after a September 2024 investigation identified fall-prevention gaps, seven subsequent inspections, including the most recent in August 2025, returned zero deficiencies.

Professional medical support is available 24/7 through a team of licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants who manage medication administration and daily physical needs. The clinical model integrates customized service plans, wellness staff available around the clock, and on-site physical and occupational therapy to promote functional recovery. Within the memory care wing, staff utilize specialized routines and secured environments to ensure resident safety and emotional stability for those with Alzheimer’s and related dementias.

Residences include spacious studio and one-bedroom apartments equipped with kitchenettes, emergency alert pendants, and safety pull stations. Monthly costs for memory care start at approximately $3,800, while assisted living averages roughly $4,703.

Shared spaces feature a four-seasons room, a movie theater, a fitness gym, and secure landscaped courtyards. The social calendar is managed by on-site staff to provide daily engagement through intergenerational events, movie nights, and creative workshops. For local errands and medical appointments, the facility provides scheduled transportation to keep residents connected to the Collinsville area.

Prospective residents and their representatives should prioritize an in-person visit to evaluate the 2026 quality performance firsthand. Discuss current fall-prevention protocols and service plan update procedures with the administrative team to ensure clinical oversight aligns with your specific care requirements.

Overview of Eastland Retirement Community

Eastland Retirement Community is a 42-bed senior living campus located at 901 Eastland Drive in Auburn, Illinois. Owned and operated by Eastland Independent & Assisted Senior Living LLC, the community is led by Director Debbie Gheen and serves Sangamon County with a blend of independent and assisted living options. Centrally located, the facility maintains a Walk Score of 68, providing residents with pedestrian access to various local services in Auburn.

The facility is regulated under the Illinois Assisted Living and Shared Housing Establishment Act and does not carry a federal CMS star rating. Current 2026 data shows that the community maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of zero across its three most recent state reviews. This record includes a December 2024 licensing survey, a March 2025 annual survey, and a September 2025 investigation into three separate complaints, all of which were found to be unsubstantiated and resulted in no violations. No fines or enforcement actions are present in the current regulatory record.

Professional support is available 24/7 through a team of licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants (CNAs) who oversee medication administration and daily physical needs. The clinical model emphasizes personal safety, with each resident provided a location pendant linked to a 24-hour security system. While specific therapy outcomes are not listed, the staffing structure is designed to coordinate care with residents’ personal physicians to support a stable healthcare continuum.

Residences are configured as one- and two-bedroom apartments featuring individualized climate controls and full kitchenettes. The monthly service model is all-inclusive, covering three meals daily, weekly housekeeping, and professional laundry.

Shared amenities include an on-site beauty salon, a library program, and common areas for social gatherings. The social calendar is managed by on-site staff to provide organized activities and creative engagement. For local errands and medical visits, the community offers scheduled transportation to keep residents connected to the Auburn area.

Older adults seeking a small-scale, apartment-style setting with a deficiency-free regulatory history may find this environment appropriate. Prospective residents and their representatives should visit the campus directly to assess the current atmosphere and 2026 quality performance firsthand.

Overview of Westminster Village Al

Westminster Village is a 72-bed nonprofit senior living community in Bloomington, Illinois, offering a continuum of care that spans independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing through its on-site Health Center. The community is 0.2 miles from Bloomington’s city center and is operated by Matthew Riehle on behalf of a nonprofit organization.

The facility carries a 4-star CMS overall rating, 27% above the Illinois average. Staffing is the standout figure: nurse staffing averages 4 hours and 51 minutes per resident per day, ranking 20th among 167 Illinois skilled nursing facilities and placing staffing 50.2% above the state average. RN staffing alone is 84% above the Illinois benchmark. The facility’s occupancy rate is 96%, well above the statewide average of 69.3%, signaling consistent demand.

Inspection history reflects steady improvement. The most recent survey, completed December 2, 2025, found the facility in full compliance with no deficiencies. The prior annual inspection in January 2025 cited two service-plan documentation gaps — an unaddressed wound-care entry and a fall-risk update — and two complaint investigations in 2025 each yielded one deficiency related to service-plan completeness and incident-notification timing.

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 416 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.
