About This Community

The Pointe at Kilpatrick is a provider of apartment living for those 65 and older in Crestwood, Illinois.

The Pointe at Kilpatrick offers the highest standard of supportive living to our residents. Our community provides assistance in the activities of daily living allowing residents to maintain their independence and enjoy the companionship of other residents of their generation.

A Dependable Assisted Living Community In Crestwood, IL

As life expectancy continues to rise, more and more seniors will need assistance. According to a recent study from the Department of Health and Human Services, a stunning 70 percent of Americans aged 65 and over will require long-term care services at some point.

With the cost of nursing home care on the rise, millions of elderly adults worry they may be left in the cold. At The Pointe at Kilpatrick, we believe that every senior should get the help they need, regardless of their net worth. To address this growing problem, our assisted living community provides supportive living, as well as other services.

Supportive Living

A relatively new option, supportive living was created to fill a desperate need for affordable long-term care services. Designed for elderly individuals with reduced income, it creates huge cost savings by combining apartment-style housing with personal and group care services. Unlike nursing homes, residents can live as independently as they like and take part in the decisions that affect them. Even though it is less expensive, many patients prefer supportive living to the alternative, because it affords them greater control over their own lives.

Accommodations & Services

Whether they want a one-bedroom apartment or a shared suite, our assisted living community lets incoming residents choose where they’d like to hang their hat. Here are just a few of the amenities these accommodations offer:

Resident-controlled thermostats
Cable television
Microwave and refrigerator
Laundry services
Housekeeping
Emergency response system
Maintenance staff services

Memory Care

Because it requires a higher staff-to-resident ratio, not every assisted living community has its own memory care department. We are proud to offer dementia-specific care services in a safe, secure environment. Because it serves a small number of residents, our memory care unit is able to provide personalized care. In addition to housekeeping and laundry services, our staff also designs nutritional management programs for each resident.

Why Us?

As an assisted living community that offers subsidized senior housing, The Pointe at Kilpatrick appeals to a wide audience. We are happy to welcome seniors from Midlothian, Alsip, Palos Heights, Orland Park, Tinley Park, Worth, Chicago Ridge, and Blue Island to our community. Whether you are someone who worries about the high cost of long-term care or someone looking for an independent living arrangement, we can create a plan that provides the services you need at a price you can afford. We also offer specialized care, such as memory care, and other services that are not offered at many assisted living facilities.

Our philosophy of care may be different from that of many of our peers. In an effort to preserve the independence and privacy of our residents, we provide assistance only when needed. This lets residents live their lives as they see fit in a warm, welcoming community that includes residents of their age group and experienced caregivers.

My mom is at The Pointe at Kilpatrick. The facility was nice, well-kept, and clean. The staff has been super helpful. They had quite a few activities for the residents to take part in. The wonderful lady who gave me the tour was fabulous. She was super helpful in helping me gather all of the paperwork that I needed and answered all of my questions. I've been there while my mom's eaten, and the food looks fabulous. Her room is beautiful. They painted the room right before my mom got there. The laminate floors are very nice looking. The bathroom was clean. It had beautiful cabinets and a shared kitchenette. They have a schedule of activities, like bingo, exercise class, and book clubs. My mom is on the memory care floor, so her community area is a locked community for safety precautions and wandering. They offer quite a few things. It's pretty comparable to the other assisted living, and I like it because it's all-inclusive, so I know exactly how much I'm going to owe each month.

The Pointe at Kilpatrick is a phenomenal facility. It's a beautiful facility and I'd like to get my dad in there. It was clean, and it was quiet. They had a good secure facility. They had plenty of activities to keep people busy. They have an outdoor courtyard. The rooms were relatively fair-sized, but they weren't small. They seem to have great caregivers there. They would have the residents go outside and do outside activities like play ball, checkers, or chess. Indoors, they would keep them busy playing bingo or other different activities like sewing or knitting, whatever to get people to do for the most part.

I choose The Pointe at Kilpatrick for my in-laws because of it's proximity to me. I saw interaction with the staff and with the residents that were present. The rooms were decent size and clean. Within the memory care area, they had a garden that they could exit out to with family; I thought that was important. It was an enclosed garden, and it was beautiful. It was on the main floor; it wasn't up on an upper level. It was open, and there were plenty of windows in each individual's room. Each room was like a little small apartment. It had its own little kitchenette and a bathroom. It had handicapped shower and sink in the room, rather than toilet and sink outside the room. The facility for bathing and toileting was big, and you can get a wheelchair in there. It was clean. I was actually in a room that a resident occupied so I could see how their furniture fit in, and it was very nice. The staff was very nice. The area wasn't too confined. It was spread decently. The memory wing had its own section. There was definitely a good security door, but there were windows in the door; it wasn't like you were entering a whole other space. It looked like an extension of it, but you needed a code to get in. They had a nice common area that was clean and spacious. They had a little garden that the residents could go out in with family members. What I saw with the interaction of the staff with the patients was very nice. They didn't know I was coming, so it wasn't like they put on the show just because I came.

The Pointe at Kilpatrick is smaller and they shared rooms, but its also cheaper. They take Medicaid which is an option that's really important to have. They played cards there. The facility was clean and their assisted living is their bigger population so it was definitely a more vibrant community. The memory care section was locked and was quieter.
