Amber Glen Alzheimer's Special Care Center

Having experienced different facilities in the Kankakee area for my parents, when it came time to place my aunt in Champaign we researched and visited many facilities in Champaign and the surrounding areas. Amber Glen was the best choice for us in so many levels. While some of the other facilities were nice, there was not as many levels of care or as caring people/staff as we found at Amber Glen. The dining, activities and office staff really seem to care and know the residents. Important points for us were that the facility seems more of a retirement home than an Alzheimer facility and something we learned from placing our parents, not all facilities offer end of life care, and ended up moving our father three times near the end which is what youre not supposed to do because the places would only care up to a certain level. Its a tough decision to place a parent or family member, but Amber Glen was a good match for us

They killed my mom. Great place if your trying to get rid of your parents, which I wasnt.

The facility is an amazing facility. Caregivers genuinely care about the residents.
