Assisted Living Communities in Dayton, OH

"One of my closest friends is now living at Optimized Senior Living in Kettering OH. The facility and residents rooms are very clean and well maintained."

"It was homier, I think. It looked like a calm, comfortable place for someone to be. It was bright, open, and everybody was very friendly. Kyle was very professional and knowledgeable. He answered all of our questions and gave us the tour. He kind of showed us around and introduced us to everybody. He told us about their menu, their kitchen employees and their longevity, and all of that. The facility was very nice, very clean. The layout was nice, and they had pretty much everything that you would need. They had a nice outdoor patio setup with a lot of seating. It was decorated for fall, and it was very nice."

"We're pretty happy with Brookdale Beavercreek. My mother seems to be thriving there. I like that they don't have a locked memory care unit. Their whole facility is secure, so she's not put in a locked ward. The staff is friendly and helpful. They had Trick or Treat, and they had all the residents sitting outside of their rooms sending out candies. Last week, they had their Thanksgiving dinner where they invited the residents and their families to all come. The food was pretty good."

"We went to Stoney Ridge Senior Living. It's very nice. We liked it very much. We were there around lunchtime. So there were a lot of residents out and eating together and interacting, which we liked. The staff seemed to be friendly. They gave us a lot of good information because we were new at this. So, we don't necessarily know the good information to even ask. And so they provided a lot of information. They gave us a great packet to look over. It was very attractive and open feeling, so it felt more like a hotel than a community. The rooms were very nice. There were several options as far as whether you just wanted a studio or a bedroom separate from a living room or a bedroom and then the bath. They seemed to have a lot of people that they kept the whole time. They don't have to like, once they pass assisted living, they don't have to go somewhere else for more nursing care. They seemed to have quite a few activities going on for the residents. They had all that on calendars and menus and the whole thing. They invited us so we could make that decision and we think that maybe we'll take my dad over to see the place at lunchtime. On Fridays, they have music at lunchtime. I like that even outside the doors they had "Home of" and the person's name. So, they just seemed like they were trying to make it a personal touch, a choice to be there. The facility was very clean. We saw people cleaning while we were there, and it was just very open and very inviting."

"I visited Grace Brethren. They were very knowledgeable, showed us what we wanted to see, and answered all our questions. The apartments were very well kept. We only needed one bedroom, and they showed us a two-bedroom, but it was adequate and would suit our needs when the time came. The food appeared to be OK. The price was quite reasonable. However, I guessed they needed to improve on their local transportation. My mom was not going to able to drive, so she would need some sort of escort or service. "

"Brookdale is closer to my sister and the staff was very accommodating and responsive. Dad has been living there for about three months. The rooms are very clean, the dining room is spacious and I like the layout of the place with its interconnections. There are a lot of activities like bingo, socials, and they have a monthly focus for their trips. My dad says the food is good and he loves the department as he calls it. "

"My friend moved into Wickshire Fairborn. It's really great. She has a deluxe room, and everything is included with it -- laundry, phone, Wi-Fi, TV, and three meals a day. It is actually much better than a lot of the other places. They said they have different activities, I know they have happy hours, and they have people coming in. Apparently, they have a small one-bedroom, a one-bedroom deluxe and a two-bedroom, but she has a one-bedroom deluxe. The staff has been wonderful. So far, they're excellent."

"Brookdale Centennial Park was a beautiful facility. The staff appeared to love each other like family, along with the residents. The facility was clean, and the rooms were extremely nice. The dining area was open, airy, and had plenty of room. The residents appeared to be enjoying themselves."

"I only toured Danbury Huber Heights. The staff was great. They were incredibly kind. The building itself was immaculate. It's very clean. I don't feel like there were things out of place or anything of that nature. It was overall one of the best facilities that I've toured. We came in and right in the front is a lobby. It has a fireplace TV. I thought that was really nice. There were about five residents that were ladies sitting out there and talking. They had a patio, which I absolutely loved, that mom could go out and sit on. They have wi-fi. My mom does have a Kindle, so that was something we were looking at to make sure that she had access here. I love the scenery and the area that it's at. There is construction going on across the way, but it's beautiful all around and very neat, tidy, and tucked away. It's not on a busy road or anything like that, so we really liked that as well. The staff answered all the silly questions that I had. Amy did a phenomenal job of taking time out of her day just to kind of reassure us that this would be a great fit for my mom. Her and Jamie both really went the extra mile just to reassure me over and over that this was the right move for us. Everyone was extremely kind. Even the staff that wasn't on tour, just the staff we interacted with along the way, was incredibly kind."

"The only experience I've had with Shawnee Estates Senior Living was going to an Alzheimer's meeting and getting a tour of the memory care with my sister. I was impressed with it. Everybody there is very friendly. They have activities, too. They even have pet therapy where people come in with pets, dogs, and cats specifically, to visit with the residents. Every time I go in, the residents are very friendly and acknowledge everybody who comes in. They just kind of greet people. I've been in some nursing homes where it looks like a parking lot for people waiting to die, and this is not one of them. Everybody in the staff seemed to be very outgoing, very committed to what they're doing, and very patient. They also offered us something to drink if we wanted it. The building was beautiful, everything was coordinated, and it was easy to get around. I've only been in the wing that my sister is going to be in, which they're still finishing up. They're still working on it, getting it ready for inspections and getting it ready for move-in. Other than a little bit of touch-up paint and a few things like that, it looked nice. I was impressed with that section."

"We visited this facility. I love it. It was awesome. They have a little chapel and a little workout room. Most of people have their own little patio outside their doors. The rooms were very spacious. I just love it. They did have activities. They even have a woodworking room for the men."

"We toured Bickford of Middletown. It's nice if you have the money. It's a beautiful place. The rooms were just the right size for a couple that is in assisted living. The staff that talked to us and showed us around was wonderful. They have a lot of amenities, but some people like my sister are not into things like that. They have like an ice cream bar and a lot of places where they can congregate with their families and friends. They have a dining room where they give you a menu, and you can eat what you want. And if you don't like what they're having that day, you can choose something else. They just told us about their activities. They have arts and crafts and stuff that they could work on."

"Aaron's Garden Senior Living & Memory Care was beautiful. It was great. There was nothing wrong with the community, but we wanted a single apartment for my father. We did not want a bedroom where he would walk out into the hallway. It was a beautiful setup. He loved it as far as if he was at that point to go there at a different time, yes, but not at this stage in his life. The people during the tour were very pleasant. It's very clean. The common areas were very pleasant."
