Barton Senior Residences

About Barton Senior Residences of Chicago

In the heart of the Illinois Medical District with world-class medical facilities just steps away, Barton Senior Residences of Chicago offers seniors 65 years old or older, an affordable high-quality assisted living option that combines the comfort and security of a community setting with the privacy of your own apartment.

Caring

We believe that the only way to achieve the best care is to have a well-trained dedicated staff that is committed to creating a caring and nurturing environment.

Communications

We believe the best care occurs when there is coordination of communication with the residents, their family and our professional team.

Community

We believe that by working together we can create a real sense of community where staff and residents enjoy living and working every day.

Amenities & Accommodations

Barton Senior Residences is dedicated to providing gracious living in an affordable, safe, homelike setting where residents can enjoy a lifestyle which promotes independence, choice and dignity. Each private apartment is equipped with an emergency call system, wall-to-wall carpeting, kitchenette, and individually controlled heat and air conditioning. Cable TV, laundry service, weekly housekeeping, maintenance and utilities are all provided at no additional cost.

Whether you are enjoying nature in our beautiful secure courtyard, reading a book in the gazebo, having a private moment in our Chapel or getting your hair done in our beauty salon/barbershop, live a lifestyle that gives you the time to enjoy the little luxuries, quiet comforts and pleasures of each day. Our safe and secure community is staffed 24-hours per day with wellness checks daily. As part of the Supportive Living Program, we accept Medicaid, and we do the paper work.

Activities

Enjoy activities designed to stimulate your interests. Join one of our exercise or yoga classes or sit in the comfort of our library equipped with high-speed internet. Perhaps you would enjoy a movie with your friends in our theater or a game of spades in one of our floor lounges. If you are in the mood, join our arts and crafts class or attend one of our monthly concerts. Show off your skills at Karaoke or at one of our fashion or talent shows. Challenge the grandkids to a game of billiards or enjoy an outing to a restaurant or museum.

Your calendar is jam packed with outings, social events and holiday celebrations. You can be as busy as you want to be, it’s up to you.

We know that the dining experience is an important part of the assisted living lifestyle. To enhance that experience, our Director of Dining Services meets with residents to discuss our menus and incorporate special requests. A licensed dietician works with our dining staff to develop the nutritional guidelines for our home-cooked meals.

Trained wait staff serves you three hot and freshly prepared meals each day at your table in our beautiful dining room. Order from a menu filled with delicious options including the Barton Healthy choice.

And when it’s time for a special family event, a birthday, an anniversary or just a family gathering, private dining is just steps away in our elegant private dining room.

Wellness & Fitness

At Barton Senior Residences, we recognize that each individual has their own needs as they relate to personal care. For each of our tenants we develop an individual Service Plan that brings a holistic approach to their physical, social and emotional well-being. We offer the tenant the option for comprehensive healthcare onsite, so they can have physician visits, dental services, podiatry, psychiatry, and vision needs met without living their home.

Our team of highly trained Nurses and Certified Nurses Assistants are available to you to:

* Assist you in your medication management
* Assist with activities of daily living
* Arrange for transportation
* Schedule an appointment with onsite medical professionals
* And if you need Physical, Occupational Therapy or Speech Therapy, our onsite rehabilitation team is just steps away from your apartment
