Trade your to-do list for a bucket list. At Brookdale Des Plaines, just outside of Chicago, you'll have independent living and assisted living on the same campus, allowing the lifestyle you want plus care in our assisted living if you need it. Trade home maintenance for more time to do what you want to do. Maybe you’ve always wanted to try tai chi. We have a class for that. Or maybe you want to explore an old passion for painting and art. Now you can.
You’ll have several floor plans to choose from, and our luxury apartments have plenty of natural light and storage. Plus, you’ll have your own indoor pool just down the hall. Maybe you’ve always wanted to learn to play Rummikub or try yoga. Now you can. And we know that peace of mind matters to you and your family. That’s why our staff is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to be alerted to an emergency.
