Adult Day Care Communities in Akron, OH

"We are doing adult day care for my husband at CYO Adult Day Services. It is a big help to me. They have all kinds of things, and that's what I like about it. They have some type of arts and crafts. They usually have speakers come in, and the ones that are able sometimes do day trips. I like that it is clean, and it doesn't smell. They provide very nutritious meals. They try to do a little exercise with the patients, but it's hard for a lot of them to do something. If the client wants it, they make communion available every day. My husband never said anything negative, but he doesn't realize that where he is going or what he is going there for. It's getting him out of the house with other people. Otherwise it is me all day. It is good for both of us. "

"My mom is in Stow Glen. The experience has been 100% positive. They are incredibly helpful, very kind, very accommodating and understanding. I feel she is safe there. They are personable. It is an employee owned facility, so everyone that works there forms part of the company. Everybody is personally interested. It is a nice, little, Christian based community and my mom is a Christian. They have Church services a couple of times a week. The residents too are so friendly and forthcoming. They have just been very good. We are very satisfied. She has a one-bedroom apartment with two rooms with nice little living room and a kitchen. She is in the independent living wing, but they have assisted living and nursing care too. Most of the independent places have little refrigerator. They redo her unit before she moved in. She has a refrigerator, a bathroom, a shower, the emergency cord and decent storage. The one fee a month covers absolutely everything. She needs very little extra money to take care of her dog and any extra snack foods and things that she wants. It is really a good facility. They have things scheduled every day, like crafts, bingo, music and exercises. They have things scheduled so everybody can get together and go to some walks. They have shuttles that take them to doctor's appointment, shopping, to bingo and other facilities. There is something going on every day. If they are in the independent and they do need a little assistance, you can add services that come to their apartment so they can stay in the independent and have assistance. "

"We used Sarah Care for my aunt. They do games, music, they go on outings, and they do crafts. They have exercise classes and memory games. She usually has her lunch there -- she goes 3 times a week -- and they provide transportation. The have a light breakfast and a full lunch, which is usually a hot meal. They have holiday parties, like on the 4th of July. The staff is very attentive, they personalize the care for her, and they're very kind. She loves the activities."

"My dad passed away in April, and my mom is presently going to Gilcrest Day Care twice a week. We are trying to get her to transition slowly, but she is enjoying this Day Care, and it is working out right now. She enjoys getting in the pool; they have the pool exercise classes, she gets in the pool twice a week, and it helps with her arthritis. She is very social, so she enjoys just meeting and talking to different people. She says they are all very caring, very nice, and helpful. It is very clean, and it is a very casual setting. "

"Top notch care and more importantly top notch caring! Each participant was treated respectfully and with enthusiasm that tired me to watch. Mom thoroughly enjoyed her time there. "

"I was at St Joe’s for 7 weeks for PT and OT following ankle surgery. 99% of staff helpful, patient-oriented, responsive, and respectful. One nighttime aide may have been in the industry a bit too long, but since I slept during her shift, no biggie. PT and OT therapists outstanding, personable, effective- Faith- a dynamo. Wish I could remember the names of OT guy & other PT woman. All figured prominently during my stay."
