Cedarhurst of Waterloo is an attractive assisted living community in Waterloo, Illinois. It is within exceptional Monroe County which is part of the Prairie State.
We started Cedarhurst of Waterloo to provide truly person-directed care, taking the time to know and work with each resident as an individual and providing them with care that’s as unique as they are. Whether in Assisted Living or Memory Care, our caring, compassionate staff, first-rate amenities, charming, one-level community and welcoming, small-town warmth make Cedarhurst a secure, enriching place to live.
Here, individual attention informs almost everything we do. You can see it in the wide array of tailored activities and programs designed to engage and delight. Hear it in the warm interactions between our compassionate staff and our residents. Taste it in a special dish prepared by our chef from a resident’s favorite recipe. And feel it in every apartment, every homey living room, and every lively gathering space.
At Cedarhurst, we honor the dedication of family caregivers. We welcome and encourage family members into our educational groups and seminars, and to be involved in individual care plans. Family and friends are always invited to on-site activities or to share a meal with loved ones. It’s a wonderful way to stay connected in a positive and supportive setting. Rest assured that we are always here for you, the caregiver. Call or stop by any time. Caring for caregivers is part of what we do, too.
As you or a loved one ages, there are certain daily tasks that may become more challenging. We believe there is a balance to be achieved between a need for support and a desire for independence. This is where an Assisted Living option at Cedarhurst can help.
At Cedarhurst, our goal is to surround our residents with expert support, especially around those aspects of daily life that have become more difficult. With exceptional care and assistance from our talented and caring staff, activities such as social outings, wellness programs, and visits from family can become all the more enjoyable.
Our approach to Assisted Living is shaped by respect and understanding of the unique lives of our residents. Together, we work with you, your family, and your physicians to determine what aspects of your life you want or need additional assistance with. Our trained healthcare professionals use their expertise and genuine respect for our residents to serve you in ways that encourage independence, dignity, and individuality. We want nothing more than to foster your sense of happiness and protect your health and safety while doing so.
Our goal is to always help provide the freedom to live your life, your way. Relaxing by reading the paper on the porch. Attending a local ballgame or cultural event. Participating in life-enriching activities. Taking advantage of our wellness programs. Or simply enjoying warm friendships with caregivers, staff and fellow residents.
We also understand that the assurance of safety is another primary concern. Expertly trained and certified caregivers are always present and backed by extensive safety features, including 24/7 emergency call system, handrails, grab bars, proper lighting and flooring, fall prevention and much more.

The heart of Memory Care consists of providing truly person-directed care: to know and work with each resident as an individual, and to provide them with care that’s as unique as they are. Our caring, compassionate staff, first-rate amenities, beautiful environment and welcoming, supportive atmosphere help assure you Cedarhurst is a safe, secure and enriching place to live.
As a Memory Care community, we not only take care of each resident’s needs, we provide important resources to treat memory loss. Only Cedarhurst cares for the memory of each resident with inclusive, custom-tailored programming versus traditional Memory Care. A physician and nurse practitioner see our residents every week and get to know them personally. Our staff is specially trained by a Certified Dementia Practitioner and takes continuing education modules focused on dementia.
Cedarhurst also thoughtfully designs our apartments into neighborhoods with the multiple stages of Memory Care in mind. Our floor plans include common dining areas, outdoor space, clear sightlines, wide pathways and secure entrances to ensure every resident has a safe and enjoyable space to live.
With exceptional staff, amenities, comfort and care, you can rest assured that Cedarhurst provides for all the necessities of Memory Care, and more.
