The Benefits of Health Services at Beacon Hill

At Beacon Hill, our vibrant residents make our community such a remarkable place to be. That’s why we’re devoted to helping them remain as independent as possible for as long as possible and why continuing to meet or exceed the needs of our residents is at the core of what we do. Not only does this show up in our dietician-approved dining options and regular wellness programming, but also in the availability of superior care and our community’s on-site health services.

Our rehabilitation and skilled nursing services are directly accessible within our community, and our senior-centric health services revolve solely around the needs and well-being of older adults. That means compassionate physicians, therapists, nurses and certified nursing assistants who are trained in senior care best practices, on-site in our health center 24/7.

Rehabilitation at Beacon Hill

Whether recovering from a stroke, a fall, joint replacement or other surgery, we offer individualized senior rehabilitation services directly on-site. Inpatient and outpatient short-term rehab is available to both current Beacon Hill residents as well as other older adults in the Lombard area. For current residents, a distinct advantage to either rehab option is the ability to remain within the comfort of our community surrounded by friendly faces.

Our team of experts includes occupational therapists, physical therapists and speech therapists. The road to recovery differs for everyone. That’s why we work directly with your loved one and their physician to determine the goals for your rehabilitation and create a personalized care plan to help them on their way.
