Alden Des Plaines Rehabilitation & Health Care Center provides nursing home, assisted living, independent living, memory care, and skilled nursing in Des Plaines, IL. Nursing home and skilled nursing care include licensed nursing care on site around the clock, while assisted living helps with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and taking medication.

The community has 110 beds, with private and semi-private rooms available. A private room gives one resident an individual room, while a semi-private room means sharing a room with another resident.

Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted. Medicare can cover short-term skilled care after a hospital stay, Medicaid can help cover a long stay when savings do not, and private pay means paying directly.

Total nurse staffing is 2 hours and 57 minutes per resident per day, representing the nursing time allocated to each resident across an average day. Pets are allowed, so a resident can bring a pet to live with them, while a Walk Score of 42 places the area in a car-dependent setting where most errands require a car or a ride for someone who no longer drives.

Overview of Mount Prospect Senior Living

Mount Prospect Senior Living offers assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Mt Prospect, IL. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication while a resident lives in their own apartment. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision.

Housing includes studios, one-bedroom apartments, and two-bedroom apartments. A two-bedroom layout can work for a couple moving together or for someone who wants a companion. Residents have an outdoor courtyard, bistro, and open-air dining area where they can spend time and eat outside their apartments.
