Vi at The Glen reinvests in 

the exceptional retirement 

To some North Shore retirees, it 

may seem as though life couldn’t 

get any better. One community is 

determined to demonstrate that 

there’s always room for improvement. 

With a $4.8 million remodel 

underway, life at The Glen is 

getting more enviable every day. 

Located in Glenview, Vi at The 

Glen pairs the area’s signature 

warmth with the comfort and amenities 

of luxury senior living. The 

result is a highly sociable, maintenance-free 

lifestyle that allows 

residents to truly enjoy the best of 

all worlds. 

Now, a remodel of The Glen’s 

common areas and amenities — 

targeted for total completion in late 

2020 — is marking a new chapter 

for the retirement-redefining 

community. 

Setting the stage for sociability 

In a community that prides itself 

on hospitality, it’s no surprise that 

improving social spaces is a top 

priority. Scheduled to be finished 

this November, Phase I of the remodel 

will focus on the living 

room, the drawing room and a full 

bar where residents will be able 

to enjoy signature cocktails while 

mingling with family and friends. 

“Social connection is a key part 

of what makes our community so 

special,” said Vi at The Glen Sales 

Director Sian Moynihan. “Creating 

spaces where everyone can 

gather, relax and enjoy each other’s 

company is so important.” 

Phase I will also introduce a theater 

where residents will be invited 

to attend movie nights, lectures 

and other special events — another 

opportunity for the community’s 

social calendar to shine. 

“Our goal is for the new spaces 

to foster a welcoming atmosphere,” 

Director of Interior Design Misha 

Mann said. “It’s all about 

creating something that’s both 

distinguished and friendly.” 

A culinary program worth savoring 

The upgrades will also include a 

reimagining of The Glen’s culinary 

program. All three of the community’s 

on-site restaurants will be 

renovated, with the casual Bistro 

to be completed as part of Phase I. 

In addition to striking architectural 

redesigns, each of the restaurants’ 

menus will be updated. 

“Scratch cooking is at the heart 

of our kitchen,” said Vi at The 

Glen Executive Chef Jose Luna. 

“Whether you’re picking up your 

morning pastry or sitting down for 

a high-end dinner, you’ll get something 

unique that was made with 

fresh ingredients.” 

Reconceived restaurant Bridges 

will feature upscale comfort food 

with a modern twist. The Glen’s 

fine-dining restaurant, Great Lakes, 

will focus on contemporary, experiential 

meals that are designed to 

inspire celebration. 

“In all of our restaurants, we 

want to strike a balance between 

familiar, favorite dishes and opportunities 

to try new cuisine,” 

Luna said. “We don’t want to give 

you what you expect from a retirement 

community. Dinner doesn’t 

need to be just dinner. It can be an 

experience.”

Glen and the community’s remodeling 

efforts, call (888) 991-

Chestnut Square: A beautiful 

community with new friends awaits 

Since opening in 2003, 

Chestnut Square at The 

Glen has been one of the 

North Shore’s most popular 

choices for independent 

senior living. 

The reasons are many, 

but to fully understand 

what makes the community 

so special, we think 

our residents, families 

and staff give the best 

perspective of all: 

“Moving to Chestnut 

Square was one of the best 

decisions my wife and I 

ever made...our only regret 

is that we didn’t do 

this sooner! There’s always 

something new and exciting 

happening and we’ve never 

met a nicer group of people. 

When my brother saw how 

happy we were, he decided 

to make Chestnut Square 

his new home also.” 

-Don Klein 

“I wanted to find a place 

where I felt an instant connection 

with the residents 

and the staff, and Chestnut 

Square gave me a warm 

feeling the moment I 

walked through the door. I 

especially love all the 

events...I’ve done more in 

eight months than I have in 

the past eight years.” 

-Dee Knapik 

“We wanted to find the 

best location, lifestyle and 

value, and that’s why we 

chose Chestnut Square. 

Everyone we meet is 

friendly, the meals have 

been excellent and we’ve 

got the Glenview Senior 

Center right across the 

street.” 

-Clayton and 

Doris Welter 

“I’ve worked at Chestnut 

Square for over 10 

years and the residents 

have become a special part 

of my family. Everybody 

is so nice...it’s why I love 

my job!” 

-Maria Latacz 

“The residents are so 

welcoming...they want 

you to feel part of their 

community from day 

one. There are so many 

activities and excursions 

to choose from. Units are 

well-maintained. There 

is formal dining every 

night and brunch on Sundays. 

My mom is safe, 

happy and close to her 

family now. I have Chestnut 

and the wonderful staff 

there to thank for that.” 

-Beth Huber

Spark your kid’s 

creativity at Codeverse 

Did you know that kids 

from 8 to 18 spend on average 

7.5 hours per week 

consuming entertainment 

media from YouTube to 

traditional TV to Netflix? 

Researchers have found 

that while kids’ IQs have 

increased, their creative 

ability has been declining 

in the last few decades. 

Turning Consumers Into 

Creators 

At Codeverse, we believe 

kids can create amazing 

things when given the 

right tools. We just need 

to do more to give kids the 

modern tools for creativity 

that match their interests 

and what they want 

to build. Kids love video 

games and interactive 

apps. Rather than turning 

away from technology altogether, 

we can channel 

kids’ interest in technology 

to unleash amazing 

creative energy. 

Codeverse is a modern, 

high-tech studio where 

kids learn to code, build 

apps and video games, and 

interact with cutting-edge 

technology, including professional-grade 

sound and 

light equipment, Craft- 

Bot 3D printers, TVs and 

strobe lights. 

The Codeverse Crew 

Membership 

With the “Codeverse 

Crew” membership, kids 

explore and interact with 

gadgets within the studio, 

as well as create new apps 

and games every week during 

afterschool or weekend 

classes. 

In addition, membership 

includes remote access 

to the Codeverse coding 

platform, allowing kids to 

continue their projects at 

home. Last but not least, 

all members receive one 

free Kids Night Out per 

month, which takes place 

every Saturday evening at 

the studio!

Caring for the caregiver 

While we were on-site at the Elderwerks 

Education and Resource Fair: Planning To 

and Through Retirement for Seniors and 

Older Adults, a visitor posed the following 

question: How do we help a caregiver/ 

spouse who is taking care of a loved one 

with dementia? 

Oftentimes we see caregivers who try to 

become silent superheroes. They sacrifice 

sleep, proper nutrition and exercise. Many 

who are still working or raising families 

admit their minds aren’t engaged. Careers 

suffer, and life on the home front becomes 

strained. The bottom line is a caregiver who 

tries operating in an “always on” mode becomes 

sick or so severely run down they 

can no longer deliver the necessary support 

to their loved one. 

Although some people look at reaching 

out for help as a sign of weakness or “defeat,” 

seeking assistance is a very practical 

and responsible approach. Over the years, I 

have spoken with dozens of caregivers we 

have helped, and a common thread is surprise 

at the vast amount of quality resources 

available and regret that they hadn’t reached 

out for help earlier. 

If you or someone you care about is grappling 

with life balance while meeting the 

needs of a loved one or friend, Elderwerks 

offers a printed Senior Resource Directory 

for Illinois, which includes all local and 

federal programming such as transportation, 

nutritional projects, social services, 

charities, etc. You can also view an electronic 

version of the guide on our website at 

Elderwerks.org. 

Hiring a home care agency with employees 

proficient at working with dementia 

patients is the prescribed route. These 

professionals can come in for a few hours 

per day, offering a breather, permitting you 

to work, go shopping, get some exercise or 

even enjoy a day at the spa. It’s also important 

to seek out help, and accept help, from 

family and friends who can pitch in by performing 

some basic household chores, paying 

bills, cooking or running errands. 

Supporting a person with dementia is a 

full-time job that requires the labor and love 

of many. Please don’t go it alone. 

Jennifer Prell is President of Elderwerks 

Educational Services, a not-for-profit 

501(c)3 organization offering complimentary 

information, referrals and guidance to 

seniors and their families. The Elderwerks 

Education and Resource Center for seniors 

is now open at 251 E. Northwest Hwy, Palatine, 

IL. Complimentary education, support 

and help is available on-site.

Picture 

yourself at 

Chestnut 

Square! 

I’m forgetting ... Is this a problem 

or a part of normal aging? 

Do you find yourself 

forgetting things lately? 

Ever walk into a room and 

can’t remember what you 

came there for? Have difficulty 

finding where you 

parked your car in the mall 

parking lot? Thought you 

might be experiencing the 

beginning stages of Alzheimer’s 

disease? 

Everyone experiences 

forgetfulness. It is a temporary 

condition that usually 

can be resolved. Some 

factors that contribute to 

forgetfulness are stress, fatigue, 

depression, nutrition 

deficiencies and drug overdoses 

or interactions. Other 

more normal factors that 

may cause forgetfulness 

include distractions, preoccupation, 

multi-tasking 

and acting on “auto-pilot.” 

Normal memory loss is 

referred to as age-associated 

memory impairment, or 

benign memory loss due 

to aging. It does not affect 

our social or intellectual 

functioning. 

Memory loss that disrupts 

everyday life is not 

part of the normal aging 

process. It is a symptom 

of dementia, a gradual 

and progressive decline 

in memory, thinking and 

reasoning skills. Early 

symptoms of Alzheimer’s 

disease often include recent 

memory loss, which 

may cause difficulty in 

performing familiar tasks 

such as handling the 

checkbook or preparing 

meals, difficulty learning 

new tasks, loss of a sense 

of time and problems with 

language. 

Before a diagnosis is 

made, other conditions 

must be excluded, some 

of which are potentially 

reversible. Do not assume 

that you or someone you 

love has Alzheimer’s disease. 

Instead, pursue a 

thorough evaluation, involving 

physical, neurological, 

psychological and 

psychiatric examinations 

and laboratory studies, 

which should yield a fairly 

accurate diagnosis.

Spotlight on a business changing 

the way we support seniors with dementia 

Name of Business: 

Fit Minds 

Name of Chicago 

Leadership: 

Ann James Harvey 

What services does Fit 

Minds offer: 

Fit Minds provides 

one-on-one and group 

cognitive stimulation programming 

for seniors and 

senior living communities. 

Fit Minds’ certified 

coaches meet regularly 

with seniors to provide 

cognitive stimulation lessons, 

supporting what research 

tells us about the 

brain’s ability to build 

resilience and create 

new neuron pathways to 

prevent memory loss. 

Why is cognitive 

stimulation important? 

Research suggests when 

we stop engaging in cognitively 

complex tasks, 

we lose synaptic connections 

in our brain. Connections 

that are not used 

are deleted in something 

researchers call “synaptic 

pruning.” 

At the same time, we 

lose that assumed socialization 

and competitive 

drive that kept 

us on our toes in “the office.” 

It is all too easy 

to do what is familiar 

and not challenge your 

brain with new content 

and to stop “old” tasks 

we used to have to do 

daily. 

What attracted you to the 

work? 

1. Mission – We believe 

in supporting seniors to be 

all they can be. Dementia 

changes relationships. It 

does not end them. 

2. Track Record – Fit 

Minds has a stellar reputation 

of impact in Canada 

and Florida. 

3. Price Point – Affordable 

price point 

4. Monthly reporting to 

track cognitive levels and 

engagement 

In addition, people are 

searching for substantive 

ways to support loved 

ones with dementia. I hear 

it from personal friends 

to business colleagues 

to senior living home 

executives and board 

members. 

How did you get involved 

with Fit Minds? 

Fit Minds’ CEO Janet 

Knupp is a former 

colleague and longtime 

friend. Janet saw the 

benefits of the program 

when her own mother had 

coaching three times a 

week in Tampa, Fla. Impressed 

with its impact, 

she brought Fit Minds to 

the United States. 

The Fit Minds program 

originated in Canada, 

where Fit Minds programming 

is in 25 percent of 

senior living communities. 

With my background as 

a social worker and my experience 

working with Janet 

in other mission-based 

organizations, we decided 

to launch it in Chicago. I 

became a certified coach 

in July and already have 

clients at The Vi, Lake 

Forest Place and private 

residences. 

What is the most 

rewarding aspect of this 

work? 

When I walk into their 

homes and their faces light 

up with a smile. And when 

they say thank you and 

tellme it was fun. 

Fit Minds help seniors 

refocus on what they can 

do versus feeling hopeless 

after a diagnosis of dementia. 

Think of it as a personal 

trainer of the mind. We 

help rebuild confidence in 

what seniors can do.

No bones about it: Osteoporosis isn’t just a women’s disease 

How strong are your 

bones? It’s likely you 

don’t know unless you are 

a woman over 50. In fact, 

bone health is important 

for everyone. Here are 5 

myths about bone health 

you need to know. 

1. Men don’t have to 

worry 

False. While women 

may lose bone mass earlier 

due to hormone changes 

related to menopause, men 

are absolutely at risk for 

developing osteoporosis. 

In fact, according to the 

National Osteoporosis 

Foundation, men over 50 

are more likely to break a 

bone due to osteoporosis 

than get prostate cancer, 

yet most men are unaware 

of their risk. 

2. Osteoporosis is silent 

Yes and no. Osteoporosis 

is often referred to as 

a “silent” disease. Bonedensity 

declines after the 

age of 30 with no symptoms 

unless a fracture 

occurs. If bone loss continues 

to progress to osteoporosis, 

bone fragility can 

result in the onset of multiple 

fractures, postural issues 

and contraction of the 

paravertebral muscles resulting 

in muscle fatigue 

and pain often reported in 

the lower back. 

3. Kids aren’t at risk 

False. Thinking about a 

child or adolescent’s skeletal 

strength now could 

protect them in the future. 

Young bodies need 

physical activity to reach 

peak bone mass and many 

young adults are more tied 

to their screens than physical 

play. Young athletes 

may also be at risk if they 

are too lean or have an 

eating disorder. 

Instilling a healthy diet, 

exercise and awareness at 

a young age will go a long 

way toward building the 

bone mass needed for a 

long active life. 

4. Calcium supplements 

help increase bone density 

False. Many research 

studies have shown that 

there is little or no statistically 

relevant correlation 

between calcium supplements 

and increased bonemass 

density at a rate high 

enough to affect fracture 

risk. 

In fact, high dosages of 

calcium may have troubling 

side effects on your 

health, including increased 

risk of heart attack, stroke, 

kidney stones and gastrointestinal 

issues. In a frequently 

cited 2015 journal 

article, Mark Bolland and 

his team of researchers in 

New Zealand cautioned 

the recommendations of 

calcium supplements, noting 

that the cardiovascular 

risks of high calcium intake 

outweigh the benefits. 

Does this mean eliminate 

calcium completely? 

Not at all. Calcium is important, 

it’s just not a magic 

pill for building bone 

density. As always, talk 

to your doctor about the 

best plan for your personal 

health. 

5. You can’t improve bone 

density once it’s lost 

False. You can strengthen 

your skeletal system 

and increase bone density. 

The first line of defense is 

exercise, but not just any 

kind. 

While swimming is excellent 

for your heart and 

lungs, weight-bearing and 

resistance exercise is the 

key to strengthening your 

bones. 

There are programs 

designed specifically for 

building bone density 

safely. Being active and 

maintaining a healthy diet 

at every age helps keep 

your bones strong, but if 

you have already been diagnosed 

with osteoporosis, 

your doctor may offer you 

a prescription as well.

Someone you know might need Ayres Estate Services right now 

There’s never a dull moment 

in our business. We 

are brokers of services to 

help clients disperse unwanted 

furniture, housewares, 

artwork, fine jewelry, 

beloved antiques and 

collections of all types! 

One of the best ways we 

can explain our day-to-day 

activities is with case histories 

that illustrate how 

our resources are the key 

to making good money 

from sales of all types. 

Here are a few: 

A friend called to say 

that her neighbors are 

thinking of moving to 

the West Coast. They had 

lived in Oak Park their entire 

married life and have 

a full house, garage and 

basement. 

When we visited them, 

the owner explained that 

they would probably not 

move for a year, and that 

not everything would be 

for sale immediately. So 

we began by taking photos 

of items they are ready to 

sell. Then we sent out the 

photos to buyers we knew 

would be interested. 

The owners’ in-laws had 

lived and worked for many 

years in Korea, and some 

of their inherited things 

had the flavor of that culture. 

Several of our buyers 

are thrilled to purchase 

items from unusual and 

exotic cultures. We called 

them in first. 

Then we sent the clients’ 

collections of snuff 

bottles, silver pieces and 

Asian jewelry to an auction 

house. Several pieces 

of furniture were moved 

to a consignment store in 

their area. 

When the time comes, 

we will again call in appropriate 

buyers for everything 

don’t want to keep. 

A realtor called us 

several months ago with 

a minor emergency. Her 

clients’ Victorian mansion 

was about to be listed for 

sale, and there were many 

valuable collectibles that 

needed to be removed 

for the clean and uncluttered 

look the realtor was 

asking for. 

We sent copious photos 

to our collectors, designers 

and shops, set up appointments, 

met buyers when 

the homeowners weren’t 

able, and within days, the 

house was ready for viewing. 

In that home, there 

were several amazing collections 

of American pottery, 

small interesting Victorian 

artifacts and African 

folk art collected by the 

owners. 

We enjoy selling collections 

because there’s 

something about groupings 

and variations on a 

theme that appeals to our 

buyers and their public. 

Speaking of collections, 

one of our clients in 

Northbrook called us in 

to see his collection of 

kaleidoscopes. 

We took photos of hundreds 

of ‘scopes throughout 

the house and are placing 

them as we speak with 

an auction house that specializes 

in collections. The 

client — a former ad man 

— also has a collection of 

artwork from the ’70s and 

’80s that he is interested in 

placing. 

We lined him up with an 

appraiser from one of our 

auction-house connections 

to inventory and assess the 

potential of each piece. 

A client from New York 

was given our name by 

Baird and Warner from 

a preferred resource list. 

His mother — a locally 

important interior designer 

from the ’50s — had 

recently passed away, and 

it was his job as executor 

to sell her Gold Coast 

condo. 

Once again, a lot of African 

items sold quickly to 

a design shop. 

The interesting but 

less valuable items were 

quickly scooped up by an 

antiques shop owner. We 

also facilitated the dispersal 

and clean-out of the 

condo before it went on 

the market. 

We’re hopeful that our 

case histories have given 

you a good idea of the 

right time to call us — almost 

anytime you have a 

grouping of items to sell! 

We can quickly tell you 

what we can do for you.

North Shore Compassionate 

Care: An emphasis on 

dependability and quality 


Care is an independent 

home care agency 

located right here in 

Highland Park. 

Its owners Mike Glickman 

and Steve Wilneff 

are long-time area residents 

and are also the 

primary case managers. 

John Vuckovich, of 

Deerfield, has now joined 

the management team as 

Managing Director. 

Their combined community 

knowledge and involvement, 

business acumen, 

hands-on approach to 

every case, and the significantly 

higher salaries paid 

to their caregivers makes 

NSCC the reliable choice 

for in-home companion 

care. 

Living at home truly 

makes the difference. 

Staying in your home as 

long as possible is critical 

to well-being. 

Your home is where 

you’re most comfortable 

and safe. The surroundings 

are familiar and reassuring. 

Moving can be 

disconcerting, creating a 

feeling of uncertainty and 

upheaval. You feel displaced 

and alone at a time 

when you most need the 

good feelings of your own 

home. 

With NSCC in-home 

companion care, you remain 

as independent as 

you can be. Feeling independent 

is so important 

to maintaining a positive 

outlook and the best health 

possible, especially when 

the effects of aging and 

illness are taking place. 

At home, you sleep in 

your own bed, your things 

are around you and you 

feel safe. With our help, 

there’s still no place like 

home! 

As we age or recover 

from an illness, injury or 

surgery, we have a need 

for care or assistance with 

daily living activities. 

Without a doubt, home 

is the most comfortable 

and convenient place to 

receive that care. 


Care provides 

home care and companion/ 

homemaker services to seniors 

and others throughout 

Chicagoland. Our 

broad choice of service 

options ranges from hourly 

care up through live-in services 

24 hours a day. 

Caregivers and support 

staff that you can depend 

on. Our experienced, compassionate 

and dependable 

caregivers are carefully 

selected to provide clients 

with loving care and assistance 

to make life easier 

and assure peace of mind. 

All caregivers are interviewed, 

referencechecked, 

backgroundscreened, 

bonded and 

insured prior to placement. 

Our caregivers are thoroughly 

trained and undergo 

additional and refresher 

training on a regular basis. 

Often, family members 

take over the responsibility 

of caring for a parent or 

loved one. They can soon 

discover that this task is 

extremely difficult and not 

easily manageable when 

combined with the responsibilities 

of their own family 

needs or while working 

full-time. 

Sometimes, family caregivers 

simply need a break 

or a day to run errands or 

address other needs. 

At North Shore Compassionate 

Care, we are here 

to help. We create a schedule 

of quality in-home care 

that fits the needs of your 

family. In-home care is 

truly a wonderful option 

for allowing loved ones to 

remain in the comfort and 

safety of their own home. 

Mike, Steve and John 

help turn that option into 

reality. They ensure a level 

of care and attentiveness 

that few can offer. North 

Shore Compassionate Care 

is proud to be a part of the 

North Shore community 

and attends to community 

needs like no other agency.

Resources for Intelligent Aging initiative serves seniors and their families 

Readers might be surprised 

to learn that the 

combined population of 

people over the age of 50 in 

Wilmette and Kenilworth 

alone is 80 percent. 

Knowing that such a 

large percentage of North 

Shore residents are over 

the age of 50, the Wilmette/Kenilworth 

Chamber 

of Commerce found 

an opportunity to provide 

a service to the community 

by assembling and promoting 

reputable businesses 

serving that population. 

This signified the beginning 

of the Chamber’s 

Resources for 

Intelligent Aging initiative. 

“RIA includes business 

owners who are developing 

useful, interactive 

ways to serve seniors 

and their families in our 

community,” Chamber 

Executive Director Julie 

Yusim said. “We felt it 

would be helpful to group 

these services together 

and make them available 

to the public through the 

Chamber’s website (www. 

wilmettekenilworth.com), 

our RIA website (https:// 

intelligent-aging.net) and 

the Chamber’s community 

guide,” said Ann Ayres, 

co-chair of the Resources 

for Intelligent Aging 

group. 

RIA happily gives complimentary 

presentations 

on a variety of topics to 

community groups, senior 

centers, libraries, houses 

of worship, physicians and 

more. 

“Our group meets 

monthly to share information, 

discuss industry 

trends, learn more about 

each other’s services and 

consider ways we can better 

serve residents on the 

North Shore,” said group 

member Nancy Hopkins 

from Home Care Assistance. 

“The members of our 

RIA group compliment 

each other’s services. 

Sometimes there is overlap, 

but we try to be collaborative 

rather than competitive. 

There are plenty 

of people in this area who 

need our help,” said attorney 

and RIA member 

Charles Hutchinson. 

RIA’s goal is to provide 

trusted and accessible resources 

in all areas to promote 

a relaxed and secure 

lifestyle. The members of 

this group include business 

owners who are developing 

useful and interactive 

ways to serve seniors and 

their families in our community. 

“As professionals serving 

this demographic, we 

know that when someone 

needs one service, 

they probably need many 

other services as well,” 

explained realtor Merry 

Juell of @properties. “If I 

am helping a senior couple 

(or their adult children) 

sell their home, I can refer 

a care-management professional, 

several home 

care agencies, an estate 

attorney, an estate services 

company to help 

with downsizing, a personal 

trainer to preserve 

my clients’ health, and a 

memory care facility if 

necessary.”
