Overview of St. Joseph Village of Chicago

St. Joseph Village of Chicago, in Chicago, IL, runs a nursing home that carries skilled nursing too, and it also has assisted living, memory care, and respite care. That is five kinds of care at one address. Someone can move in needing a little help and, if things change later, stay put while the care catches up.

Because skilled nursing is part of the picture, a licensed nurse is on duty at every hour, overnight included. In assisted living, residents have their own apartments, and staff help with the everyday things that have gotten harder, bathing, getting dressed, and keeping medications straight among them.

Memory care is meant for people at risk of wandering. The setting is secured, and staff supervise the residents in it. Respite is the short-stay option, there for when a family’s main caregiver needs a break.

It’s a small place, with 45 beds, so staff and residents get to know each other. Apartments come as studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms. A studio is a single room for one person, and a two-bedroom works for two people sharing.

Each resident gets an average of 5 hours and 7 minutes of nursing time a day. Short-term rehab is available for people here to recover, and there’s a library and a beauty salon on site.

Franciscan Communities, Inc. operates the community. The neighborhood scores 91 on Walk Score, which counts as a walker’s paradise, so someone who has stopped driving can still run daily errands on foot.

Payment can come from Medicare or private pay. Of the two, Medicare covers a limited stretch of skilled care after a hospital discharge, but it won’t pay for living here long-term.
