I just wanted to update my opinion now. It has been going on four months since I joined Inspirations of Northbrook. When I moved here on January 3, 2026, I wasn't sure I was ready for this kind of change or place in my life. Now, looking back, I can honestly say I'm so glad I did. This community has become more than just a place to live—it's a place where I feel truly at home.<br><br>The staff here are exceptional. They're kind, devoted, and genuinely knowledgeable. Whether I have a question or just need a friendly face, they're there with warmth and professionalism that makes all the difference.<br><br>The meals are wonderful, too. I've enjoyed delicious, well-prepared food that feels like a real treat every day.<br><br>One of the best surprises has been the people I've met. My fellow residents have such amazing, interesting backgrounds, and I've loved getting to know them and building lovely relationships along the way.<br><br>This move has also been a gift to my children. Seeing me active and safe here gives them real peace of mind, which means the world to me.<br><br>And I can't forget my dog. Having her with me has made this transition even better, and watching her being walked by people who are so sweet and kind to her brings me joy every day.<br><br>Moving to Inspirations of Northbrook was one of the best decisions I've made. I'm grateful for the setting, the staff, the community, the care, and the life I'm building here.

The assisted living in Inspirations has been a very comforting situation for my husband with dementia. I could give numerous situations where the staff from Ryan and Lucia, nurse's like Regina, the CNA’s and their brilliant leader, Nidia on down the latter to Micheyl at the front desk couldn’t be more helpful. He’s considered part of a family here. Support staff are not only for my husband but also for me in dealing with various issues with him. I could not be more grateful to everyone here.<br>Sincerely,<br>Danette Franklin
