Overview of Franciscan Village of Lemont

Franciscan Village of Lemont is a 47-bed nursing home in the Chicago suburb of Lemont, Illinois, about 15 miles southwest of Naperville. It is owned by Gregory Belback, runs under the Franciscan Care Solutions umbrella, and operates at full capacity. They take Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, and since stays average about 72 days, most people are there for short-term rehabilitation after a hospital stay or intermediate recovery.

The nurses and aides spend about 3 hours and 48 minutes a day working directly with each resident, with registered nurses covering 1 hour and 21 minutes of that time and nurse aides providing 2 hours and 17 minutes. Because a team is on the floor 24/7, they manage therapies, post-surgery recovery, and short-term respite care. Inside, the faith-based community offers chef-prepared meals in a central dining room. The local neighborhood scores a 4 out of 100 for walkability, so visitors will need a car to get around, though the low score keeps the campus quiet and free of heavy traffic.

State inspectors found the facility to be in full compliance during its most recent review. Earlier findings regarding elopement risk management prompted the facility to update its staff training and conduct service plan audits, which have since been put into practice.

Prospective representatives can call the admissions desk to find out how the waiting list works, ask about the daily therapy options, or schedule a walkthrough of the campus.

Does Illinois Medicaid cover nursing home care?

Yes — Illinois Medicaid covers nursing home care for residents who meet income, asset, and medical-need eligibility requirements. Most CMS-certified nursing homes accept Medicaid as a primary payer once long-term-care eligibility is established.
