The Scottish Home has been in North Riverside for over one
hundred years. It was started by a group
of Scots who wanted to provide service to their fellow country people who came
across to the Chicago-area. The Scottish
Home has been able to succeed after many years by the fact that they are a very
small, individual-oriented home. Licensed
for only 85 residents, the Scottish Home is one big family that places
importance on individual’s wants, needs and preferences. This is a place where friends truly do become
family.
Many people that grow into old age garner a sense of
loneliness and depression. At The Scottish
Home, we strive to foster a sense of belonging within a safe and nurturing
environment. We provide quality care
while respecting individual routines, interests and abilities. In addition, we focus on wellness and
assisting residents to remain as independent as possible.
As one’s needs become more advanced, so does the level of
care and attention we provide. Residents
receive the specialized care they need in a supportive and dignified
setting. The Scottish Home is not just
another nursing home. We provide an
atmosphere of nurture, sincere care and real empathy about what’s going on in
the lives of our residents.
For anyone considering bringing a family member or loved one
to The Scottish Home, you could not make a better decision! Your loved one will gain a new family from
our maintenance staff all the way up to our home director. The intimate size allows our staff to develop
close bonds with the residents as well as their families. Most importantly, you will love how much our
staff cares.
The Scottish Home is a place with history, culture and an atmosphere that is unmatched. Although we have roots in Scottish Culture, we are proud to provide a home for seniors of all ethnicities. To learn more about The Scottish Home, visit us online.
