Recently, Nutritional Concepts of Northbrook Illinois was asked to explore the quality of menus currently available at local Senior Housing facilities.
They focused on six random facilities, taking into account size (number of residents and locations), for profit or non profit, national and/or Illinois-centric, nursing and/or assisted living. They have no association or interest in any of them. They examined several issues they thought would be of interest to their clients.
What is the quality of the food and menu?
Do they accommodate for special dietary needs?
How is the food prepared (chef or food service)?
Has a health professional helped create and periodically evaluates the menu?
In their opinion, only one out of the six facilities passed muster.
They rated Friendship Village as BELOW AVERAGE and commented:
Friendship Village of Schaumburg (only IL location)
The menu is loaded with heavy sauces, cream soups, and gravy.
