Total Wellness for Seniors Starts with "Makeover".

TINLEY PARK, Ill. -- McAllister Nursing & Rehabilitation - a skilled nursing and sub-acute rehabilitation facility focused on senior care is complementing their approach to total wellness with a "makeover" of its facility. "McAllister specializes in elderly care so a comfortable and warm environment is critical to the health of our residents. We also want our employees to feel good about coming to work. What they do changes lives and McAllister respects that commitment." says Shoshana Garfinkel, Director of Marketing for McAllister. "We are on-track to complete our renovations by early spring. This is an exciting time for McAllister. We have a ribbon cutting ceremony and open house planned to celebrate with our community."

McAllister's makeover includes renovating all of the residents' rooms, dining halls and other common areas. The color scheme was specifically chosen to promote feelings of warmness, wellness, security and home. Fixtures including safety rails and room numbers were also changed to modernize the building. To further ensure long-term and short-term residents felt at home the artwork displayed is a mixture of previously hung work and new additions chosen to enhance the color scheme.

For forty years, McAllister has been a cornerstone of the Tinley Park area. "We want our community to know they can rely on McAllister when they need skilled nursing, extended physical or occupational therapy." Says Helen Lacek, Administrator of McAllister and a twenty year experienced pro in skilled nursing/sub-acute rehabilitation. "Our new "look" plus our reputation for quality care can ease the stress that so often surrounds skilled nursing and long-term care placement."
