Prairie Living at Chautauqua

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

I would recommend Prairie Living at Chautauqua, there isn't another place in Carbondale I would recommend. They have nurses on staff to help with baths, medication, to help get them to dining area, and coordinate things. It was an excellent experience from the point of view of the care my parents received there. My parents weren't there very long, but the staff there were very helpful, very kind, they were very responsive to my parents' needs. The other people I've visited there have been very p…

I visited this facility

Prairie Living at Chautauqua and its people were very nice. It's an older facility, and the room was not as big as the others, but it's nicely arranged and had windows. The dining area was very nice and kept up well. The people there seemed to really like it. They had a library, a beauty shop, and a little game room, but the disadvantage was it's got two floors and it seemed to be quite a bit of walking for my grandmother.

not a very good place to put your loved ones, this place is only about greed and money.

I am not sure I would recommend this community!

The staff at this community are friendly and helpful. She loves the food and they keep the community clean. They offer daily activities. I would have to say the administration is a two. If the nurses need to administer the medication you have to go through their pharmacy and this takes a few days at it is done by mail. If you do not then a family member would have to give them their medication.

My Parents Are Happy

I like that my parents live in a place that is extremely convenient for me. My patents are happy with the meals they are provided, no complaints at all. They keep the facility clean and beautiful in and out. The staff are very attentive and helped get my parents to be more active. We came up with a plan and they followed through with it and it has been a good outcome. It is a pleasant place that is warm and inviting.

This place was real nice but too big. I think they had a couple hundred residents and a lot going on. It's a three story facility and I thought mom would be better on a single floor.
