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. The latest standard survey recorded 15 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.
Meadowbrook Manor - LaGrange presents a stark contrast between its modern, clean physical environment and the inconsistent quality of patient care. While many reviewers praise the facility's appearance and specific therapy staff, a significant number of families report severe neglect, including long wait times for call lights, poor hygiene, and unprofessional communication from nursing staff.

Key Review Excerpts
“Meadowbrook rehab had my mother walking by the fifth week. They never gave up on her and believed in her.”
“I walked the halls to see if there were other rooms that had lights blinking, I did this on two separate occasions and my mother was the only room requesting assistance. I was here for an HOUR before anyone finally changed her diaper.”
“My father was there for over 1.5 months and it just keep getting worse and worse. Especially the weekends. He would asked to be changed from soiled linens and it would take hours to change is bed and undergarments.”
Total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark, though RN coverage meets its reference level. Ask how aides are staffed for daily tasks such as bathing and mobility.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

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.
