IDPH licenses Heathers Senior Homes at Ringwood for 7 assisted living units: 7 Alzheimer's/dementia special care units. About 100% of the licensed units are dedicated to Alzheimer's care, so dementia support is the core of this community.
Illinois licenses assisted living by living unit rather than by bed. An Alzheimer unit belongs to a special care program for people with Alzheimer's disease or a related dementia, which the Assisted Living and Shared Housing Act (210 ILCS 9) and 77 Ill. Adm. Code 295 hold to added staffing, training and environment requirements.
The licensee of record for Heathers Senior Homes at Ringwood is THE HEATHERS SENIOR HOMES, LLC. IDPH shows 4 license period(s) for this establishment in its online system, the earliest beginning October 3, 2023, and no change-of-ownership record at this address.
IDPH's online system only reaches back to its 2023 migration, so a community can be licensed far longer than the earliest period shown; ask the community when it first opened.
