Assisted Living Communities in Chardon, OH

"We really like Brookdale Mentor. The staff who met us was very friendly and welcoming. She really listened to what my mom and I had to say. I was impressed with how well she paid attention to Mom because Mom kind of rambled. She took us on a very thorough tour. She answered most of the questions that we had before I had a chance to ask them. She was very much on top of what she was doing. The place was beautiful. It was clean. It was cozy and homey and all those things you want it to be. There is a beautiful courtyard in the middle where the residents can spend some time outside, which is very nice, and Mom really likes that. Mom was very impressed. She was ready to sign the paper, like 'Let's go right now,' which is a far cry from where she was when we started this. We saw three different-sized rooms, and the one that Mom got attached to was very airy and open, and the light was very good. The staff already had in mind a couple of people she was going to come up with to be friends with Mom. There are 70 residents there, so that seems to be just about the right size. There was a group of ladies singing in the lobby reception area when you first walked in. They were singing hymns and practicing for something, and that was very sweet. As far as other activities, she showed us the room where they do this, and 'Our schedule today is that.' She was very enthusiastic about the activities, but the singing was the only activity we actually saw. They have a courtyard, a library, a beauty shop, an exercise room, and a place where you can do your own laundry, or they will do it for you. There is also a nice kitchen with coffee always on and some snacks. It all seems very complete and very well thought out. The staff was wonderful. The place was very comfortable, too."

"I toured Danbury Mentor. Their version of independent living is that you have to take on the burden of all the meals there. They have things available, then you pay for this and you pay for that. So it's not what I call independent living. I mean, you can have a car. It's pretty good, it's just that I realized it's very competitive. It's kind of pricey for someone who is in relatively good health. I'm still driving. I can still get around. I can do my own shopping and so forth. So I don't wish to be in my situation confined to a facility where everything is done for me. The staff was very helpful."

"Maple Ridge Senior Living seemed wonderful. They were very friendly. It was beautiful. It's just not affordable. They were very attentive and brought in lunch, and it was really good. It was clean, and the structure wasn't falling apart. The atmosphere was very comforting. They were having some kind of party in the lounge. They had music outside. The size of the rooms was OK."

"We checked on them. The assisted living area there was smaller than the other facility. The rooms were very nice. They didn't have a shop or a deli there. Food-wise, they're about the same as with the other facility."

"We visited Brookdale Wickliffe. I thought it was a very nice facility. It would be a place that we would consider when we're going to make a move. The staff was great. They were very good, knowledgeable, and made us comfortable. They showed us both rooms and they're very nice. They had some activities going on in the memory care unit when we were there and I was pretty impressed with that."

"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!"

"Nice rooms, staff pleasant, food good."

"Vitalia Highland Heights is a brand-new facility. They just opened. I was very impressed with the independent living quarters that they offered. There were two spaces available. There are two bedrooms with a nice large living area and a kitchen that has everything. I know that if I wanted to, I could cook and bake there. There's a seating area in the kitchen. You don't have to have a dining room table, but it's big enough that you could have people sit down there on both sides. You could probably get maybe 4 or 5 people sitting in this area. They have beautiful two bathrooms that are bigger than what I'm living in right now. They have a washer and dryer, which is very important to me. The price is OK. I think they want $4005 or somewhere around there, maybe close to $5000 a month. They offer a lot of bus trips and typical things. They have a pool. They have everything. They have invited me twice now to come for lunch and their food is excellent. If you have a car, they have a covered parking area and that's $75 a month. That's high, and all it does is that there's a parking area where everybody parked right next to each other. You just have a roof over the outdoors. It's not an enclosed garage."

"I had an in-person tour of Cedar Living at Mayfield Heights. I liked the fact that they were small. They didn't have a whole lot of people there. They were able to answer all of my questions. I liked the fact that it was clean. They had a courtyard and a big indoor dining area. I think it's near a hospital, shopping, and restaurants."

"The Winfield at Richmond Heights is close to me. So, proximity was good. The campus has a nice grassy area. It's quiet and the building itself was easy to get around, but I think maybe for someone new moving in, it would take a little bit of getting used to. They had call buttons for safety purposes if something should happen (which was important for my aunt). They had a little kitchenette in their apartments. Some of them even have a den and a balcony, which my aunt liked. The amenities were nice. I saw both the independent and assisted living and we had a good discussion throughout the whole tour. Then afterward we sat down and just talked about my aunt and things that she was interested in. They wanted to get to know her a little bit more. The lady who gave the whole tour was very knowledgeable."

"Richmond Heights Place was new, it's clean, and it's a lovely area. The staff there was very accommodating, full of information, and very helpful. I spoke with the cook and they were very proud of their food service. They have social activities with the residents, but there is no swimming pool, gym, or any of those kinds of things. The dining was very nice and they had a courtyard. The grounds were beautiful. The cleanliness was excellent. There was fast food available close by, and there was a hospital probably 20 minutes."

"Villas at King David was an excellent facility. They had the dining room and a nice bedroom or studio apartment with a little kitchen area, but only a microwave because they provide the food. They had activities for them and transportation. It was a very, very wonderful location. The staff was great. It's a beautiful place. My brother did like the place. It's just that he said he did not need assisted living. He doesn't need help with medications or anything like that."

"I had lunch at Deer Creek Lodge and it was OK. The facility was very nice. The people and the staff were really friendly. The rooms were a very nice size compared to other rooms that I've seen. It was very clean."
