Amada Senior Care Northern Illinois
Proudly serving families in Lake and McHenry Counties.
Dave Johnson, owner of Amada Senior Care Northern Illinois, is dedicated to providing the highest quality of home care and excellence to clients living in Grayslake, Lake Villa, Ingleside, Round Lake, McHenry, Johnsburg, Gurnee, Waukegan, and many other Northern Illinois communities. “We are passionate about helping you meet your needs or those of a loved one while also bringing comfort to your home.”
Dave understands what families face when they’ve committed to caring for their aging loved ones, but soon run up against the challenges of providing for their specific needs that increase as their age progresses and they require more assistance with daily tasks. He and his family have walked the walk together on the senior care journey with matriarch Bessie Johnson, who inspired them to start an in-home care business to serve families like them. Grandmother Bessie’s wish—granted by her loving family—is to make a difference for all seniors and families.
“Adequate and specific home care is important when you or a loved one are struggling with daily activities because of an illness, a medical procedure or simply normal aging,” says Dave. “We are dedicated to working with you and your loved ones to ensure that home care needs are individually assessed and a superior care plan developed, followed by that personal care plan being carried out to the letter.”
Whether you or a loved one are looking for a few hours of help with activities of daily living or half-days or half-nights of in-home care by one of our compassionate and trained caregivers, you can rely on the Amada Northern Illinois team to provide exceptional care tailored to your preferences and desires.

In doing my research for an agency, I looked for reviews as part of my vetting process. Amada Senior Care and it's owner, Dave Johnson, had many rave reviews and I now know why. He answered my call tand was a wonderful "director of first impressions" while he walked me through how the process works. He came for an in home visit the next day and had caregivers lined up by the next day. Dave is committed to seeing that the caregivers are a great fit and he certainly has done that! Deanna and Tiffanie are compassionate and they work very hard to be proactive and not wait for me to tell them what I need. I am happy to share this 5* review to add to all of the others.

Amada is such a great company to work for, as the office team is truly understanding. In addition, the clients and their families treat you like family. They are very happy with the care that I provide their loved ones.
I highly recommend Amada Senior Care! The owner, David Johnson, and his team work hard to care for those that need in-home care. Amada Northern Illinois provides a critical service. In addition, their professionalism stands out, as they were able to help my family from the beginning of the senior care process to the end.
While aging has its limitations and challenges, seniors deserve to continue to celebrate all that’s good in life. Our in-home caregivers help our clients live safely and comfortably, attending to daily needs, and equally important ensure they continue to engage in the hobbies and activities they love. Gardening? Reading? Exercising? Going out for ice cream? Seniors are supported and encouraged throughout the journey with customized care plans that treat each client as the individual he or she truly is.
Senior Housing Advising
When seniors or their loved ones begin to feel that they require more support than in-home care and assistance with basic ADLs, it may be time to consider transitioning to an assisted living community.
This is an emotional decision for everyone involved, and our goal at Amada Senior Care in Northern Illinois is to guide families through the placement process with wisdom, empathy and competence.
For some seniors, an assisted living community, typically offering non-complex medical services, may be a good fit. Others may require a bit more support and may be better served in a nursing home or different type of care community.
The team at Amada Senior Care Northern Illinois has years of experience with senior care in Lake County, McHenry County– Antioch, Fox Lake, Old Mill Creek, Channel Lake, Lake Catherine, Volo, Grayslake, Wildwood, Gurnee, Waukegan, Gages Lake, Grandwood Park, Lakemoor, Ingleside, Ingleside Shore, Long Lake, Island Lake, Mylith Park, Round Lake Beach, Round Lake, Beach Park, Wadsworth, Rosecrans, Lake Barrington, Williams Park, Park City, Winthrop Harbor, Greenwood, Zion, McHenry, Johnsburg, Bull Valley, McCullom Lake, Pistakee Highlands, Prairie Grove, Burtons Bridge, Holiday Hills, Ferndale, Hartland, Franklinville, Greenwood, Spring Grove, Richmond, Solon Mills, Belden, Wonder Lake, Ringwood and Union . As a result, we have deep knowledge of all local care communities and can make sure our clients find the ideal placement to suit their care needs, locations, lifestyles, and budgets.
We also rely on our extensive experience to help our clients make full use of all benefits available to them, including veterans’ benefits and Long-Term Care Insurance benefits. The costs of assisted living may intimidate many families, but we can help them make financial decisions with confidence. To further ease cost concerns, the Amada Northern Illinois team is pleased to offer its placement services free of charge.
When in-home care is no longer ideal for our clients, we are honored to guide them through this next phase. Our specialty is referring seniors to the right community or placement for them, which may include:
- Assisted living communities
- Large and small communities
- Independent living communities
- Board and care homes
- Adult family homes
- Senior care homes
- Skilled nursing facilities
- Alzheimer/dementia communities
