After having considerable trouble finding a place where my parents could be together in an assisted living facility, I found Savoy Place. Danielle and Amanda went above and beyond to make it happen. With my father having late stage dementia, and my mother having physical challenges and no mental issues, many facilities would not take both and allow them to be together. The staff is overall accommodating and caring. There was never a request that I asked for that they did not fulfill. They were always willing to go the extra step to make sure that my parents were comfortable and well cared for.

Our mother recently passed peacefully while living at Savoy Place. We have lived through several different management companies while she lived in the facility, and I am writing to express my deep gratitude that the final care she received was guided by Danielle Wade and her team of skilled care providers. Danielle and Amanda were kind and extremely knowledgeable as they guided us through this challenging process as our family experienced the impact of Alzheimer’s disease on our mom. When we needed guidance regarding her medications and physical needs, Richard and Elizabeth were there to guide us with care, compassion and wisdom. As the disease progressed, her dietary needs changed and were expertly managed by Alicia and Joe as they prepared meals which she greatly enjoyed. John was very helpful as we set up her room and attended to her ongoing housekeeping needs. I especially want to highlight the gentle loving presence I witnessed through her daily caregivers. Tierica, Destiny, Jeanne, Ashante, Taylor and Adijah treated our mother with respect, dignity and loving kindness as they walked with her through her final years. Our family had been truly blessed by all of these wonderful people. Thank you for softening this deeply challenging life situation for us and for all the families in your care. Rachel B.

Dementia/Alzheimer's is hard. It's hard to watch a loved one who was once vibrant and full of life as you knew them, deteriorate into someone who is somewhat no longer recognizable. And one can only imagine what it must be like to be trapped and held hostage in a Dementia/Alzheimer's riddled mind. My mom died on Mother's Day this year at Savoy Place after living the last two years of her life there. My mom could be a force of nature to be reckoned with and the disease often left her with little or no filter. Under the loving and compassionate leadership of Executive Director Danielle Wade, my mom was loved completely and unconditionally by Danielle and her team of nursing staff and caregivers. They experienced the good, the bad, the humorous, the smiles, the sometimes ugly and my mom's tears. They loved and supported my mom in spite of and through it all. During the last 48 hours of my mom's life Danielle and her team sacrificed personal time to sit at my mom's bed side to talk to her, cradle her, play the music she enjoyed, recall experiences with my mom, and hold her hand. It was evident to me that these special people were not merely caregivers; they had become mom's extended family members. At my request, Danielle Wade spoke at my mom's funeral, in part about Dementia/Alzheimer's. In spite of the disease, my mom's life continued to have a positive impact. Seven of those impacted were caregivers who attended mom's funeral. The staff at Savoy Place gave my mom the professional care that I could not. But more than that they became part of my family for life. I don't know a greater love than this. Teresa Howe

My mother passed away last week at the age of 97 after being at this facility for 2 years. This was by far the best place in Champaign-Urbana that she was at. The staff was caring and attentive, particularly Regina but all of them. The food was great. Mother was always clean and nicely dressed, and they treated her so well. She was never neglected or ignored. The admin was responsive to our needs and there was great communication with them. Thank you for this and for caring for her so well.
