Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois, United States • 11 - 50 Employees
Hospital & Health Care

Assisted living facilities have evolved considerably since they were first developed in the 1980s, largely in response to seniors – and their families – rejecting the often unnecessary, institutional setting of nursing homes. Since 1981, an estimated 40,000+ assisted living communities have been developed nationwide. "Housing with health care and hospitality" is the hallmark of today's senior assisted living communities. Services have become increasingly individualized, and medical care provided onsite ranges from medication administration to specialized care for Alzheimer's residents. Programming might range from weekly card games to senior exercise offerings, entertainment and shopping outings, and higher education courses brought onsite by local colleges.Sounds great, right? Of course it is. At Bright Oaks Group, we, too, believe that our parents, grandparents and aging loved ones deserve all of these services and amenities. And more. Engagement, meaning, wonder, purpose – living in dynamic involvement with one another – this is the experience we offer at Bright Oaks. Bright Oaks Group is the owner, developer and operator of a family of products focused on delivering quality of life to elders in need of care and tenderness. Our communities consist of Assisted Living for elderly in need of care for activities of daily living, and Memory Care for residents with Alzheimer or other forms of dementia in need of secure surrounding and support. We develop living spaces that facilitate care and encourage living, and create communities that are inclusive, connected, inviting and welcoming. We are appealing to residents that enjoy living and want to live life to its fullest and employees that encourage, assist, support and get involved in our communities and our residents.We strive to create a homelike environment where people live together, and enjoy a communal living style with support of people who care for them and take care of them.
