Assisted Living Communities in Aurora, OH

"I toured Summit Point. It was clean and very organized. The staff was beautiful, answered all the questions, and even told us things that I probably would have forgotten to ask. They were very nice. The rooms were beautiful. They have help buttons all over if you need a hand. They had a shuttle service and they did group things as far as grocery stores and people wanting to go to the grocery store. Every Monday they went to a different grocery store. They put a calendar out. There was a lot for them to do. I've seen the dining area. It was beautiful. They had linens on the tables. They put out a menu, and if you didn't want what they had on the menu, they had an alternative menu for you to eat off of. They had like a little coffee shop there that you can get your coffee. You can do all-day coffee. And then they had a little grab-and go-section with snacks and whatnot. I thought that was beautiful."

"The aides and nurses are very attentive and sincere. My Mom has been at Hamlet for over 15 years. Questions are always answered quickly and professionally. The nursing team did a great job with Mom during her final days on Hospice Services at Hamlet. My wife and I could not be more appreciative of the care and constant over site that Tish and her team provided to my mom. We wish we could give Hamlet more stars than 5!"

"Summit Corners has very good customer service. They also have very good facilities that are kept up well. It's a beautiful setting/environment. There was one room, and I took some pictures of it. It's not too bad. It's a little bit small, but it has a big closet. It's private, so I like that my mom would not have to have a roommate, and that's a plus. It's more like a home instead of like a regular nursing home. I didn't try out the food, but the staff member who gave me the tour says it's very good. It sounded good from the menu, and the staff says she eats it herself."

"We're living here. The appearance is very nice, and the layout is very convenient. The food is good, my wife is playing Scrabble right now, and I have played bingo. The facility has nice surroundings, the staff is very accommodating, and is very nice and helpful."

"The Woods at Solon Pointe was a very nice facility. The food was delicious. It was like gourmet restaurant quality and worthy of being paid for. The people working there were very nice. They just couldn't accommodate both my in-laws. There's a lot of shopping around the community. My mother-in-law is in a wheelchair and she could've gotten around by herself in the actual community or outside. It's a beautiful facility."

"I put my mother into Hudson Grande Senior Living. So far, I'm very pleased. My mother has been attending activities, and the food looks delicious. I've actually eaten there twice, and it is very good. My mom is getting the help she needs. The rooms are fine. For activities, they take them to movies. They make sure they get out of their rooms, and they show an appropriate older movie for the residents. They also have guessing games where they have to finish the end of the name of a movie show. They all play along on that, and they seem to enjoy it. They also have a thing where you would toss these large donut-shaped things over, and they were clapping for each other. Everybody was enjoying it. They take them to happy hour that doesn't involve alcohol unless they want that. The staff are all very friendly. They call me if there's a question about something. They're still getting to know my mother medically."

"My sister has moved into Light of Hearts Villa. It's a faith-based community. It was formed by the Sisters of Charity, which appealed to my sister. They're into Bible study and their whole attitude is not all about money, so that appealed to us very much. Right now, we're trying out assisted living because she fluctuates between doing good and then not really realizing what day it is or whatever, like her recall of facts, numbers, and things. They feel that they would like to start her there and see how it goes, and if need be, they could always move her over to memory care. Right now, they're evaluating her situation. I haven't tried their meals. I have to give them a heads up when I'm coming for either lunch or dinner, so you have to put a request in. But my sister is very happy with their food because she's there for every meal three times a day and no complaints, and she is a food fussy. Her room is like a suite. There's an entranceway, a pantry so she can store things, a private bath for the shower, and there's room for her queen-sized bed, a nightstand, a recliner, two dressers, and a rocking chair. It's quite roomy. They play Jeopardy and they play bingo. Yesterday, a husband and a wife came and sang and played instruments and so forth. I think it was like songs from the 1940s and 1950s, which they all enjoyed. My sister is doing much better walking so that she can get around with her walker. She can go visit some of her friends. They're not all in the same area, but they can go by elevator up or down. She's doing much better mingling with people. "

"I went to Eden Vista of Stow. We liked that it looked clean and homey, not like a big, fancy hotel. The apartments had a living area, a kitchen area, a bedroom, and a bathroom. The person who took us around was very friendly and very informative."

"My mother is at Alpine House of Maple Heights. The first thing I like about it, for my mother's situation, is getting her away from danger. I like that the other residents there were in the same situation (and some different situations) and she would be able to be social rather than staying at home alone while me and my daughter work. She gets to meet people and be social, so I love that about it. I love the fact that they take them out on outings like to any grocery store they want to go to or any shopping center they want to go to. Also because my mom is a recovering drug addict, they even have NA meetings there. They have a beauty shop there, so my mother doesn't have to necessarily go out for her haircut because now she can stay and get her haircut. They have 24-hour care where they have nurses, 24 hours. They have a doctor that comes in regularly. They have restaurant-style dining. The apartment is a nice size, too. It's also very, very clean. The staff are so nice and pleasant. They are so caring and understanding. When I went to visit with my mom last week, it was lunchtime, and they offered me a meal. The meals were pretty nice. They're almost like home-cooked meals. We had tuna casserole, and it was really good. Another thing is that they have activities. They have a whole big old room for activities. They have an in-house spa and residents can make an appointment to go to the spa. They have different activities throughout the day. They leave out books, coloring pages, and crossword puzzles on different tables. And then they set up time for different activities also."

"I visited the one in Bedford, Woodside Senior Living. The staff was very friendly, and the place was nice and clean. It looked like they're really hands-on with their residents. They do a lot of stuff with them, like bingo and going to the casino. The staff explained everything. The apartments have a good layout. Each of them has a little patio."

"I toured Vitalia Senior Residences at Stow. The place was gorgeous and very nice. Everything seemed like it was going to be great. It was very costly. It was probably going to be very costly for my mom's condition. She doesn't need two-person assist yet, but she needs a lot of assistance. They couldn't give me a price or an estimate or anything like that until she was assessed, whereas others could give me guesstimates at least. I just couldn't get pricing, and I was in a hurry because I wanted to get Mom out of the environment she was in. However, everybody was friendly. I met directors from different departments, and they were all very friendly. It looked like they had good activities too. The cleanliness was good. The room was nice."

"Regent of Stow was a nice place I would consider acceptable. They have good staff there. They have a good facility. They have a doctor and nurses that they employ. They have a movie theater and a nice dining hall. They play bingo, and they have recreational activities. The place seemed clean. We were there around lunchtime and people were being served. What I saw on the table looked all right, but we didn't have a chance to sample any of it. The staff during the tour was very nice and pleasant. She's a nurse and one of the management people there."
