Homey, comfortable place.
Since this is a smaller facility, the staff to resident ratio is better than at the larger facilities. They are more available to the family and the residents. My mom was in the memory care unit. She passed away on [date removed]. There were very few structured activities for the memory un

Homey, comfortable place.
Since this is a smaller facility, the staff to resident ratio is better than at the larger facilities. They are more available to the family and the residents. My mom was in the memory care unit. She passed away on [date removed]. There were very few structured activities for the memory unit. It appeared there was much more on the nursing home side. The majority of the nurses aids are wonderful and caring. The food is home cooked and delicious. The facility needs some improvements, especially to the grounds. Housekeeping could be improved.

Family Member Loves It
I have a family member that lives at Avonlea of Sterling and she loves it. Its very 'home-like', when having dinner (the food is amazing) it's like sitting at your kitchen table at home. When visiting all the staff says hello and are very friendly. They are attentive to the seniors that live there. The rooms are pretty nice and many things to do there. I am so happy she's there!

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Illinois regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Illinois regulations for Assisted Living.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Avonlea Cottage of Sterling

Avonlea Cottage of Sterling offers Studio. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Avonlea Cottage of Sterling 8.6 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
