These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 90% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 18 findings, above the IL average of 12.0. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Elevate Care Chicago North receives highly polarized feedback, with many residents and families praising specific staff members for their dedication, while others report severe neglect and poor communication. While the facility is frequently commended for its respiratory and physical therapy programs, multiple families have expressed deep concern regarding patient hygiene, slow response times, and inadequate staffing levels.

Key Review Excerpts
“The CNA are amazing but unfortunately they are overworked so not matter what they do it can't justify the lack of integrity that is displayed.”
“My 68 y/o mother was a patient here because she needs a tracheotomy and ventilator care. Most recently she was admitted to St. Francis hospital on 1/26/23 due to: RIGHT HUMERUS FRACTURE and RIGHT FEMORAL NECK FRACTURE.”
“The staff here is pretty good and there is one who deserves great praise his name is Michael J. He's a manager but also helps CNAs. I've had him dozens of times and he took great care of me.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

This facility shows a concerning pattern of repeated complaint-triggered deficiencies, with families filing reports that led to over half of the 98 total violations found across 22 surveys. The most recurring problems involve accident prevention and safety supervision, abuse and neglect protection, and medication management. While all deficiencies show correction dates, the persistent nature of safety issues and multiple abuse/neglect citations spanning from 2023 through 2025 suggests ongoing care quality challenges that warrant careful consideration before placement.

Original nursing home datasets
EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
These are the 6 closest facilities in our data within 10 miles. Proximity does not mean they provide the same care type or have stronger quality signals, so compare each profile and verify services directly.
