#LifeatLombard

Nervous you won’t make friends? Unlikely! Afraid you’ll have to give up your hobbies? Not a chance. Get a glimpse into our community programming and what life is like living here by checking out our Facebook page. We frequently share what residents have been doing to stay active, involved, and living life to the fullest.

Shout out to our Green Thumb Club for all their dedication to getting our garden up and running! These folks held planning meetings, went to the local garden store, and planted. They will be watering and tending to herbs, vegetables, and flowers all summer.

Residents at Lombard love learning new ways to explore their crafty side. This week we made wire wreaths to brighten up our doors for spring

Last month, we held our Art Walk, which displayed residents' and staff's artwork. It was an excellent opportunity for our residents to talk about their creative process and families to see what we have been up to!

During April, we have been learning about the process and history of art. Each week, we highlighted a famous artist. Last week was Kandinsky. We learned about his process of abstraction in Western art. Our residents created art inspired by one of the pieces. We will be debuting our artwork at our ...art walk!

Our poetry workshop promotes creativity, self-expression, and lifelong learning. This month we focused on Irish Blessings. We read traditional Irish Blessings and wrote some that we would like to share with you.

Blessings for Friends
May your hope be plentiful
And your ...understanding sincere.
May your acceptance be as generous
As the shamrocks are green.
May your flowers bloom
And your day be great.

Blessing for Feasting
May your corned beef be tender
And your cabbage be fresh.
May your table be lively
And your friendships be true.

Our residents enjoyed another Ballroom Dancing class with Alex! Marie said, "Dancing makes you feel better. I used to go out dancing every Saturday night."

The #CraftersCorner is a group of residents creating #DIY (Do it Yourself) projects. They recently made lip balm with nourishing ingredients like mango butter, vitamin E, beeswax and shea butter!

Hear From Residents and Family of Lombard Place Assisted Living & Memory Care!

When the moment came to bring our mother to an assisted living facility..the number of facilities out there was daunting. What became very clear early on is that there are only but a few that presented the quality and care that we were seeking. And of those few, Lombard Place was clearly the best choice for Mom.The staff, from the administrators to the daily care givers were beyond welcoming at the start and their desire to ensure Mom’s happiness and quality of life endured throughout Moms’ residency. The piece of mind we gained by knowing that Mom was in a beautiful and caring facility was priceless. The community atmosphere fostered by the compassionate staff made Lombard Place the ideal facility for our mother and should be at the top of the list for those seeking an assisted living location.

Lombard Place was neat, clean, modern. Our guide, Sydney, was awesome answering questions we didn't know we had. The entire staff, as we walked around, was friendly and polite. Plenty of parking. The residents all love the place...not a bad word was said by them. All said they were so glad they made the move.

I can not say enough about Lombard Place Assisted Living. My mother had been diagnosed with dementia and I went on my own to research facilities not even knowing if this was an option. Just trying to be proactive. Then came the day my mom had a stroke and needed to be in a facility immediately. I had to relocate her from southern Illinois to Lombard within days. Lombard Place worked with me and the doctors to make sure she had a place to go. They moved mountains and I couldn't have been more relieved. The care is top notch along with the facility. During this difficult transition, they supported me 100%. Sometime just a quick hug from a staff member, a squeeze of my hand to tell me they are there, was more comforting than they will ever know. The entire staff from the maintenance man, to the caregivers, to the directors were fantastic. I will always be grateful to this 5 star team!!!!

Beautiful atmosphere, loving staff and caregivers, excellent meals and wonderful activities. Lombard Place is not your typical assisted apartment style living for seniors. My mom was in the memory care unit and was treated with kindness, respect, and lots of hugs. I couldn't rave more about the staff at Lombard Place and, without hesitation, I give it a 5 star rating!

My mom and dad have been at Lombard Place since the opening of the facility and I can't say enough positive things about the staff, management and building itself! We are SO happy we found them. They have shown an amazing commitment to care for mom and dad, love them and support us while dealing with my mom's Alzheimer's. They are indeed a 5-star organization. Thanks from the bottom of my heart to all the staff at Lombard Place!!
