Elevate Care Riverwoods

The work sits inside a building that also carries a sole-source VA community nursing home contract for Captain James A. Lovell FHCC, with a five-year ordering window that began around October 2022. CMS quality measures land at 4.0 while the staffing star sits at 2.0, with total nurse hours per resident day at 3.35 (RN 0.87, CNA 1.90). Nurses who have worked here talk about supportive coworkers and steady bonds with residents. Flexible hours show up as a plus in reviews, and sister Elevate Care sites post FT, PT, and PRN options. Our own posting data shows $30 an hour flat from a single listing. Growth stories split—some employees mention advancement, others describe limited internal hiring. You should also know the harder edges: reviews name disengaged management, favoritism, and poor communication, and CMS records list eight health deficiencies, four fines, and one payment denial. Staff turnover sits near 35% overall, with RN turnover lower at 16%. Buffalo Grove itself is often ranked among the stronger places to live in Illinois, with a roughly 24-minute average commute and a higher-than-average cost of living.

Internal recognition exists through the first Annual Riverwoods Management Awards (2022) and employee-of-the-month shout-outs; public posts also celebrate student nurses.
