Assisted Living Communities in Bowling Green, OH

"I liked Glass Peaks Senior Living very much, and so did my daughter. The bedrooms were a little bit small, but we could fit my husband's queen-size bed in there, and put his dresser in one of the closets. He would have a walk-in shower, and I would have a bathtub in my room that was across the hall. We would sleep in two different bedrooms because my dog would sleep with me. The upkeep was very good. They kept it beautifully. We walked through the dining area, and it was very nice, too. We would have a small kitchenette in our apartment, and I could fix something there for us if we didn't want to go down to the dining room. I could warm up soup or make a sandwich or whatever. The woman who gave the tour was fantastic. She answered all questions and everything for us."

"I placed a deposit on Landings of Oregon, and I'm packing to move there. I like all the amenities that they have. Even though it's independent living, they have a nurse that calls you and checks on you every day. If you're not feeling well, she'll come over and take your vitals. If you don't feel good and you don't feel like you can get out, they'll bring you some soup. You pay your rent and you pay nothing else. Everything's included. Cable, wi-fi, all your utilities, everything is included in the price. You don't have to pay any other bills. I have a one bedroom because that's all I need. It has a very nice size bedroom, bathroom, and it has good storage. It's nice for one person. I haven't lived there yet, but it looks very well-kept. The grounds are very well-kept. The lady I've dealt with so far has been super nice. And they introduced me to some of the people that lived there and stuff. I liked it. That's why I chose it. The dining area is very nice looking, very clean. They offer you 30 meals a month included in your rent, so you can pick what and when you want to eat. They have a menu they put out a month, and you can choose what you want to eat that month."

"The important qualities about Taylor Place from my perspective as the daughter of a resident is the size--less frightening for my Mom; she was quickly able to make new friends; the friendly staff; and the wonderful Activities Director who has lots of fun and unique things for the residents to do from crafts to gardening to games!"

"My mom moved to Charter Senior Living of Oak Openings. It's clean. The people are overly helpful. I just feel comfortable leaving my mom there because they closely know someone who works there who we didn't know before and so she's been a big help to keep an extra eye on my mom. The food looked good and it smelled good. Her room is small but very comfortable, with large windows overlooking the courtyard. I think they're pretty homey. I don't know a whole lot about assisted living or memory care, but it was probably one of the more economical places."

"Our parents moved to Oakleaf Village in May of 2015. Mom enjoyed living there almost 4 years, and Dad over 5 years. He passed away in July 2020 of natural causes. We cannot say enough about this incredible Community. Our folks selected Oakleaf having visited friends there and noticing the vibrant Community. It's a unique, caring place filled with amazing staff. They took such great care of our folks. Even during the difficult days of the COVIC-19 pandemic when our Dad was declining (he did not have COVID), they treated our Dad (and us!) with the utmost kindness and respect. Our parents chose very well when they chose Oakleaf Village of Sylvania. Our entire family will forever be grateful for the excellent care, genuine compassion, and true friendship (lots of fun activities!) found at Oakleaf Village. I highly recommend this facility to you. I encourage you to visit and you will see the difference first-hand. "

"I visit my loved one here several times a week. The atmosphere is warm and friendly- I'm called by name from the whole team! The activities are attended well so find your seat early! I recommend others to consider Brookdale Findlay when they need a community that cares."

"Sunrise of Findlay was a lovely facility if you were just looking for a nice 1-room setting. They emphasize on trying to create a very homelike setting for mom or for dad. I would be very happy there if I was in a more confined space and was not able to enjoy apartment living. I guess it would depend on your stage in life and your health, but the residents were very happy. It was a lovely place, lovely personnel, very warm. I ran into a lady who had her father there, and she said that if you were looking for a facility for a parent, this is wonderful. I can be very happy there if I didn’t want to entertainment like in my own little facility or if I was more limited in my life. "

"I didn't have an appointment when I went to Aspen Grove. But the girl at the front desk showed me around. It's beautiful there, and I think if Dad ever needs assisted living, we will take him there because it's close to home. Their prices are about the same as the other assisted living facilities. The staff that I met was really nice. They have a beautiful dining room, a library and game room. The grounds are beautiful, and there's a walking area. Their units are all studio apartments. The staff who gave the tour was awesome, too."

"I toured Vibrant Life Temperance. It was clean and organized, giving off a warm feeling. It's a little like a dormer. They have a bed, a closet, a TV, and a chair, just like a hotel room. I've been working with Nick, and he was good. They can go outside on the deck, and there's a lot for them to do besides sitting in the building. The facility has a little pond with seating and chairs, making it really nice, and they're served three meals a day."

"My sister and I were very impressed with The Heritage Inn. We both had someone who was at that facility for some period of time, so we knew of it, and we knew it was very highly rated. We were just blown away by how wonderful and beautiful a home they provide for so many different people. The staff was very helpful, very comforting, and very wonderful. The whole experience was very good. The rooms were kind of open, like you have a good feeling of being able to breathe there. I know a lot of places they have very small bedrooms, and they are almost claustrophobic. Also they allow patients to bring some of their own furniture if they so wish. They encourage them to hang pictures on the wall. They were very homey. We had a meal at The Heritage Inn, and it was very nice and very delicious. They have a dietitian on staff who can take care of certain diets that must be kept. Food all tasted good. The one thing that was a negative about this place was that they do not take Medicaid patients, and that was important to us. "

"Browning Masonic Community was gorgeous. It had a lot more amenities than I needed, and the price was high. The staff was very understanding, caring, and helpful. They had everything. The TV was included, WI-fi, the gym, you name it, they had it."

"I was extremely impressed with St. Clare Commons. It's a beautiful facility with wonderful staff. That's the place we're going to start working with to try and get my wife in because they have skilled nursing. I'll have to pay out of pocket for a little while but they don't have anywhere near as long of a waiting list as the other places we looked at. We've already started some paperwork to get a full evaluation of my wife to see whether or not it would be a fit both for her and for us financially. We toured their assisted living, as well as long-term care and skilled nursing. It was like going into a resort that's beautiful. All the staff was phenomenal. They were just right on top of things and bent over backward to help me and a friend of mine who's also been going with me on some of these. They were just great, more than congenial, and helpful. A couple of the residents that we talked to were cool people. I have a good feeling about that spot. There are a couple of dining areas there and they're quite warm and inviting. It's right up there with some of the nicer restaurants I've ever eaten at. The rooms were also beautiful. Nicer than some good-level hotels that I've been to. They've got a beautiful library, crafts, and some stuff available. They've got a beautiful campus where there are places you can go outside and soak up some of the sunshine. It also has a very good security system. The whole place is top-notch."

"I toured The Lakes of Monclova for my dad, and I was very, very impressed with them. Their assisted living director showed me around the assisted living. I went through that, and I went to the memory care building. Out there in the memory care building, the person who was in charge was just really phenomenal. She has a great idea and a great plan for the residents. She considers everything - their rhythm and their routines. She schedules everything according to how the residents respond during the day and what their rhythms are. I can't say enough about the memory care side of things. When I walked in, it was right around noon and I said, "Oh, something smells really good." and she said, "Yes, that's exactly what we try to do. We put something in the oven so that they can smell it." All the residents were coming out of their rooms because they could smell the food. They knew that it was mealtime. It was great. What better way to get them out as opposed to going in and dragging them out? She just has a really good grasp on what kinds of activities to do when. It's homey, but it's also that they're being observed. You get the feeling that it's not too big, so that they can't wander off somewhere where they're not seen. It made me feel comfortable that there were enough people around if something were to happen. Something else that I notice is that the residents were very quiet. They weren't agitated, weren't upset, and weren't yelling. I've seen different places where memory care can be very chaotic, and this was not what I saw here. I'm pretty sure that's where we'll end up, but I want mom to take a look, too. When I was there smelling the food, I was watching the people come up. Obviously they were anxious to eat, which doesn't always happen."
