Overall Good. Room for some improvements
Overall I'm as happy as you can be in this type of situation. My Mother is not as far along in her Alzheimer's as most are in this community so that has been a struggle for her as she is able/active physically, and there are a lot of people sitting around alone doing nothing. Nurses have b

Overall Good. Room for some improvements
Overall I'm as happy as you can be in this type of situation. My Mother is not as far along in her Alzheimer's as most are in this community so that has been a struggle for her as she is able/active physically, and there are a lot of people sitting around alone doing nothing. Nurses have been amazing and nice to my Mom. Could be some improvement in personal hygiene help with residents from CNAs. The front desk staff - [name removed] and [name removed]- THE BEST! I have anxiety every time I pull in the parking lot never knowing what I'll see or experience and they help put me at ease with a genuine hello and kind smile. My only main complaint is the smell when walking in from the lobby. It is masked with constant spraying of disinfectant in the air, that irritates lungs and it's a combo of food/urine/disinfectant. Really hard for me. If they can solve this problem, it would be FIVE STARS!! Bottom line, my mom is safe and looked out for at Porter Place.

Okay but There is Better
We moved my mom out. My mom lived at Porter Place for 6 months and we decided to move her. I would give it a solid 3 stars. On the pro side, the care was normally good and the staff was attentive and friendly. On the con side, there are a large number of residents there and it can be a bit overwhelming for quieter people. The common area (TV room) is too small for the number of residents. The CNA staff turnover is high so there is a lack of consistency. Guests are asked about their Covid status (as of June 2024) and temperature is taken with a scanner at the desk which is crazy at this point. There is a bit of an institutional feel to the place as opposed to where my mom is now. Depending on the cleaning staff, there is often a urine smell in the hallways. Bottom line, your loved one will receive decent care here but the a large number of residents make it less homey and presents challenges for the overall environment.

Review for Porter Place Memory Care
It's really a great place and [name removed] has become quite comfortable here. I'm really grateful for the staff and organization's care of him.I would strongly recommend PP. They've addressed my concerns about his care in a timely and professional manner. And they've allowed me to participate in his care. I feel comfortable that they will take care of him and socialize with him if I'm not available to see him on a given day. [name removed]transition to PP from home has not always been easy but after a year I can say it's working out and he's content.

Top Notch
The staff is now our extended family! These people aren't just employees at Porter Place, they are people who truly care, who love what they do, and it shows. I go at all different times of the day and night, and her room and bathroom is spotless! Mom has changed since she has been here. She is so happy and loves everyone there. They go above and beyond for Mom. The receptionist is one of the ones Mom loves. When she is having a bad day the receptionist [name removed] goes and gets her and Mom thinks she's an employee, with a name badge and everything! They have a chef that creates real meals. Healthy and delicious! Mom eats now! Activities go on all day, everyday!! The residents are all out of their rooms and engaged. I've been to over 10 facilities, and though it was farther than I wanted to be away from Mom, but her care was most important and after numerous conversations with [names removed], I knew this was Mom's forever home.

This is by far the best facility for persons with dementia and Alzheimer’s. The staff truly care for the residents and everyone who works there is trained in care of those with dementia. Every resident is addressed by name and hugs are given to those wanting them. The meals are prepared onsite and look appetizing.

I have my Wife in Porter Place for about a year and one half. When I walk out to go home I’m totally relaxed that she will have the best caring people around her! The staff knows everyone by name. Staff has a smile on their faces. I looked at about 6-7 facilities and found Porter Place to be about caring for the residents! This was HUGE. Many of the staff have experienced a family member with dementia. This helps them understand the importance of taking care of the people there who need it. I would Highly recommend PORTER PLACE for your loved one.

So far so good! Still getting used to it. Everyone is helpful and pleasant, and my Mother seems to be doing OK. She very much loves the courtyard, but weather now is not good. Hopefully she can be contented till spring. It’s so sad to see her slowly forgetting more, so for us children we are happy that she can be safe. Thanks!!

My Mom
My Mom was given a 30 day notice from her previous memory care facility for her eloping and behaviors. I visited 10 facilities. The absolute only place was Porter Place that convinced me Mom would be ok. [name removed] was truly amazing and didn’t give up on me. After speaking to [name removed] and her listening to my fears, she assured me everything would be ok. So my sister and I decided let’s go for it!! Well, Thank God we did!!!! From the moment we walked in those doors, everyone opened their arms to not only Mom, but to us as well. Every single caregiver here is Exceptional in more ways than one. They tell us how much they Love Mom!! Believe me, I See It!! A month ago seeing My Mom being injected with haldol and being in a coma state, I would have never gotten to see my mom so happy and engaged if it wasn’t for Porter Place!!! If you have a loved one who you love like we love our Mom, then look no further. Mom now has an extended family and she loves them All??

Porter Place has been a great support for what is a difficult time. Everyone is friendly and helpful. I feel as though my Dad is in a good place — it’s safe and clean, he’s active and well fed. They also have a strong tie to the community and provide monthly support groups.

An answer to a prayer
There are no words that can do justice to the praise I have for Porter Place in Tinley Park. I placed my 100-year-old grandmother into their care approximately 16 months ago. I can state with complete conviction that my grandmother is blessed to have the best care I have ever seen. The staff are so kind, thoughtful, understanding, and compassionate. Without question, I would highly recommend this facility to anyone who is looking for exceptional care for their loved one.

Peace of Mind
My loved one has been a resident for a year and a half. I feel comfortable having her there knowing she is being well cared for. An acquaintance from church mentioned it was where her mom lived and she only had good things to say about it. So a friend and I went together to tour. I wanted to have a second opinion with someone else and get additional information I may not have thought of. The information you provide about your loved one is essential to getting the best possible care for your loved one, from medication to allergies, to history, to food preferences, everything pertaining to them is crucial. The staff is caring and knowledgeable about the residents. The nurses and aides answer questions when you call and when friends visit, send me pictures if she participates in the activities. Receptionists, [name removed]& [name removed], are fantastic! Maintenance Director, [name removed], and Life Engagement Director, [name removed], are fabulous! Family & friends feel welcome. This is a top quality facility.

A Good Place for Your Loved One
Porter Place has been a blessing for my husband and myself. Three years ago I made the hard decision to bring my husband to memory care. The nursing assistants are kind and take good care of my husband. The nursing staff is always on top of his health, and the director listens to your concerns and acts on then quickly. I would recommend Porter Place to my friends.

Best place to put your mind at ease!
Porter Place pretty much saved my life. I couldn't handle my Mothers Altzheimers, cried for weeks after I decided to place her in a Memory Care Facilty. Turns out almost 10 months later it was the best decision for her and me. Porter Place is a Godsent. The administrative staff is exceptional and truly cares about your loved ones as their own. The understand the disease thoroughly and treat your loved ones with respect. I will remember for the rest of my life that I heard the couple days it was 30 below zero and the administrator of the facilty stayed over night! They are incredible people

Clean and Bright
Porter Place is a great place for a loved one. It has courtyards to enjoy outdoor space and the staff always communicates with family of any issue that is occuring with your loved one. The activities indoors and outdoors make a happy fun time for the residents! Visit to the Fire Dept. was a fun event for my brother! He enjoyed going to the Resale shop to pick out some cool clothes !! It is always clean and much sunlight coming in all over ! The new massage room will be very good for some residents to feel comfort.

Home away from home
I researched many memory care facilities for my Aunt, and I chose Porter Place because of the friendly staff and the smaller size of the facility. The building is secure and they provide so many activities for my aunt, and for family to come and be a part of the community. I attend the monthly support group that Porter Place hosts, the last Thursday of each month, which is ran by 2 wonderful hospice nurses. They are a godsend to us caregivers. I feel at ease knowing my Aunt is being well taken care of in a safe community.
