The Landing on Dundee Senior Living is an assisted living and memory care community located in Wheeling, Illinois, serving residents from surrounding areas including Buffalo Grove, Lincolnshire, Prospect Heights, Deerfield, Northbrook, Arlington Heights, and Mt. Prospect. The community is positioned in Cook County near the suburbs of Chicago, close to the Wheeling Metra station and local conveniences.
The community offers assisted living for older adults who need extra care while maintaining an active social lifestyle, and specialized memory care for residents with Alzheimer's disease and other dementia-related conditions. Both services provide person-centered care delivered by skilled caregivers available 24/7, with support for activities of daily living, health and wellness services, and assistance addressing residents' physical, emotional, and spiritual needs.
The Landing on Dundee features its award-winning Spark program, a research-based engagement model inspired by Montessori methods and the work of Dr. Cameron Camp. The program uses proprietary assessment tools to identify residents' remaining skills and abilities, offering meaningful roles and activities that foster purpose, connection, and fulfillment. Activities include gardening opportunities where residents plan, plant, and harvest produce used in community meals, as well as structured programs designed to help residents progress toward goals.
The community provides beautifully appointed apartments with modern amenities including inviting gathering areas, wellness spaces, a salon and spa, restaurant-style dining, and private dining areas available for events or family gatherings. Additional services include weekly housekeeping and linen service, and insulin-dependent diabetic management where offered. A resident-led Welcoming Committee helps integrate new residents into the community.
Wheeling itself offers numerous conveniences and recreational opportunities, including fine dining and restaurants along Milwaukee Avenue's Restaurant Row, retail and entertainment at Wheeling Town Center, the Wheeling Family Aquatic Center, and recreational trails such as the Des Plaines River Trail and Potawatomi Woods.
