More than 4.5 million Americans are currently living with Alzheimer's disease each year. But Alzheimer's disease affects so many more of us. Family members are left to worry, hope and wonder.

The good news is that many people in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease and dementia can live independent lives with just a little extra assistance. And family members can rest assured knowing their loved one is safe.

That's why Carle Foundation created Arbours Court. Arbours Court is a supportive care community for residents in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease and dementia. It is located adjacent to The Carle Arbours and next to Burwash Park at 302 Burwash Avenue in Savoy.

Perhaps most comforting to family members, nursing care is provided around the clock at Arbours Court. The community's staff ensures patients are stimulated, maintain a healthy diet, continue their medication, and get assistance with daily activities, such as bathing and getting dressed.

People with Alzheimer's disease need a safe, comfortable, and caring environment tailored to their needs. And family members and caregivers need to have peace of mind knowing that their loved one is safe and well cared for. Arbours Court can help.
