Vandalia, IL - Assisted Living

Willowbrook Vandalia is a grand assisted living community in Vandalia, Illinois. It is within picturesque Fayette County which is part of the Prairie State.

Willowbrook Memory Support Residences provides the highest level of quality care for those afflicted with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. Our cutting edge approach features unique architectural decisions coupled with state of the art technology to ensure the safety of each resident.

Willowbrook Memory Support Residences are designed to provide care and support of our residents while promoting dignity and independence. At Willowbrook we can accommodate 12-14 residents in each house, in private suites arranged to meet the needs of those we serve.

We are licensed by the Illinois Department of Public Health to provide our specialized services in an assisted living atmosphere. Our philosophy of care is to celebrate each resident’s abilities, rather than concentrating on their disabilities. We all need a purpose in life, that doesn’t change just because someone has dementia. At Willowbrook we help each person find a purpose each and every day.

Our Mission:

Willowbrook strives to work in partnership with residents, family, physicians and staff to provide quality care that produces great moments throughout the day for those with dementia. Our goal is to set community standards and exceed expectations for those who serve and to provide a compassionate resource for the community.

Maximize loved one’s potential and keep activity constant throughout the day
Bring as much of home to the residence. This is their home, and we are all guests.
