Working with the staff at the Summit has been amazing. I had to relocate my mother from out of state and they were so helpful. The facility is great and the community is VERY friendly. Residents have been going out of their way to welcome her. It is also situated in downtown Park Ridge making it very convenient to access restaurants, train and other activities. I would highly recommend to anyone considering independent living.

My dad has been a resident at Summit of Uptown for three years, and the staff has been incredible. They see him as a person, not a room number, and treat him with warmth and dignity. They’ve gone above and beyond for us time and again. The community is clean and well cared for, meals are steady and satisfying, and there are activities that keep residents connected. But it’s the people that make the difference. Robyn sets the tone with genuine leadership. Emma, one of the servers, is so kind and attentive. And she knows how to brighten his day, often with his favorite ice cream. Tessa, at the front desk, always greets us with a bright, welcoming presence. And Dawn, who oversees the kitchen and catering, keeps things running smoothly. There are so many others who deserve thanks, but these few reflect the heart of the place. We’re truly grateful.

Our family has been so impressed with the positive changes at this memory care facility. All staff has truly gone above and beyond to create a warm, compassionate, and engaging environment for both residents and their families. It is evident that she genuinely cares about the well-being of every resident and is committed to providing exceptional care.<br><br>One of the most appreciated additions has been the weekly family newsletter. It keeps loved ones informed about activities, events, and important updates, giving families peace of mind and helping us feel connected to our family members' daily lives. This level of communication has made such a meaningful difference.<br><br>The dedication, transparency, and genuine compassion shown by the Director and staff have not gone unnoticed. We are grateful for all they do to make this community a safe, supportive, and enriching place for our loved ones. Thank you for going above and beyond every day!

From the very first day I entered the halls and rooms of The Summit of Uptown to take a tour, I knew it would be the best place for my mom to live independently, but finally CLOSER to me and my family. The staff has been phenomenal and there are a multitude of benefits that I've never experienced elsewhere for senior living. So proud of this wonderful place in my community that prioritizes quality of life for all our loved ones.

Summit is an excellent extended care facility. I have experience with 3 other similar purpose facilities in the area. Their purpose is similar but the quality of care at Summit of Uptown is of far superior quality. If an assisted living facility might be needed for your loved one you should definitely check out Summit of Uptown.
