Carrington Hall offers luxurious living at King-Bruwaert House

This is the perfect time to consider a move to the new and modern Carrington Hall Assisted Living suites now available at King-Bruwaert House (KBH) in Burr Ridge. Featuring bright and open floor plans, Carrington Hall offers an abundance of amenities that cater to adults (60 and better) interested in a relaxed and catered lifestyle.

All Carrington Hall suites include a kitchenette with a mini-fridge and microwave, in-unit washer-dryer, individually-controlled heating and air conditioning, lipless walk-in shower, a 24-hour emergency call system and additional storage areas. Telephone, cable TV and WiFi services are included with the monthly fee. Pets are welcome and KBH maintains a year-round dog park just a short walking distance from the suites.

Daily meals include fresh, home-cooked options that are not only nutritious but equally delicious. As part of the included meal plan, residents may opt to dine in our convenient Bistro ’33 that features indoor seating plus an outdoor terrace. Members of the KBH Culinary Department take great pride in creating a variety of menu items that include popular entrees and seasonal favorites. Celebrations are frequent and dining requests are always welcome by a talented Culinary Director who embraces the motto, “You wish it – we dish it!”

Friendly, senior-focused members of our Life Enrichment team plan and organize daily activities that include fitness programs, special events, spiritual gatherings, lectures, games and entertainment and other activities that focus on all dimensions of wellness. A monthly calendar lists day-to-day activities with times and room locations, along with a monthly newsletter that highlights community news and programs.

Carrington Hall residents interact daily with experienced, tenured staff members who make every effort to be helpful and accommodating. Individualized service plans allow for personal care and support whenever needed.

“The KBH staff responds quickly to our concerns and needs,” commented Jody Pringle, a long-term KBH community resident who recent transitioned to her new Carrington Hall home. “They prioritize our care and well-being and provide excellent service with compassion and interest.”

Weekly housekeeping, linen changes and trash removal make it easy to keep things neat, clean and organized. Local, scheduled transportation allows for easy, convenient trips to medical appointments and shopping. An abundance of retail shopping centers, malls and services are just minutes away from the KBH campus.

On the medical side, residents enjoy convenient access to DuPage Medical Group Geriatrics located on the north side of the KBH building. The practice offers a full range of services provided by a team of board-certified geriatricians with affiliations to three local hospitals. Residents have access to physical, speech and occupational therapies, plus additional services such as dentistry, podiatry, vision care, audiology, psychiatry and counseling. A full-time Licensed Clinical Social Worker is also available for consultation.

With a picturesque setting on an expansive 35-acre campus, Carrington Hall offers year-round enjoyment of the changing seasons. Spring tulips and daffodils, colorful summer annuals and perennials, festive fall foliage and glistening white snow highlight the four seasons with breathtaking beauty.

A reduced entry fee currently makes the decision to move to Carrington Hall an excellent and timely consideration for those interested in Assisted Living. During the pandemic, KBH management has upheld the highest levels of local, state and national guidelines to safeguard the health and wellness of residents, frontline nursing and support staff and first responders.

“This is a great time to choose from several suite options and room views available in Carrington Hall,” said Andy Beltz, Senior Director of Development, Marketing and Communications. “We encourage anyone considering Assisted Living to include Carrington Hall as a viable option. This year KBH marks its 87th anniversary and we continue a long history of providing quality care and services.”
