“Blown away by the new look of The Roosevelt at Salt Creek! The renovations are amazing, and the staff is always so attentive and caring. My grandma loves being there!”
“Dawn is here to help my husband and also myself since I am unable to care for him at this time. We find her to be very good at what she does, and she also makes us feel very comfortable when she is here and is also very trustworthy. She is a real gem. We don't want to lose her.”

Computed on October 23, 2026 from the 5 communities listed in Elmhurst, 319 public family reviews on Google, Yelp and MyLivingChoice, state licensing records and, for nursing homes, CMS Care Compare. The best-rated list ranks communities by average family rating weighted by how many families have reviewed each one, so a 4.9 from three reviews does not outrank a 4.7 from two hundred. No community pays to appear in the best-rated list or in these figures; sponsored and partner listings in the directory results are marked as such. Figures refresh as listings and reviews change.
