Great experience

I would let others know that there are professional staff members throughout the facility. The Director [name removed] has been very helpful in assisting with the initial application, and later on with Medicaid applications as well. This facility is in a great location too! There do not seem to be many activities provided to the residents. I would definitely recommend Victory Centre of River Woods, I have also recommended them via other online surveys as well.

Quality care

They were so accommodating and helped us get in here fast. My friend is getting great care and attention from the staff. He raves about the food, it is a posted a menu each week. The assistant director [name removed] bent over backwards to help us with our needs and was there every step of the way. They are not just sitting back, they are very involved and helpful with anything you may need. The medical staff have been great and are super responsive and on top of things as well. I would definitely recommend Victory Centre of River Woods.

The victory Centre is a good organization but that is dependent upon the needs of your love one. The staff for the most part are friendly and professional. But there are times when neglect have to be pointed out before the situation is rectified.

The location was hosting a cookout on the day I visited, so a large number of the residents were in the common areas. While it was somewhat congested the staff appeared to know each resident by name including any current activity the resident was involved with.
