Assisted Living Communities in Elyria, OH

"I'm a resident here, and it's very good. It has 72 residents, so it's not huge, and everyone knows everybody. They have bingo, movies, bowling, pool, and go to the casino, shopping, and restaurants. They have prayer service, Scrabble, board games, coffee hour, and monthly meetings with the residents to try to improve their activities. They have medical staff, who are pretty good and do their best to take care of our needs."

"After my dad passed away, my mom moved into Independence Village and we couldn’t be happier with her experience. From the moment she arrived, the staff has been warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. It’s clear that they go above and beyond to make residents feel comfortable and at home. The food is fantastic, offering a great variety of delicious and nutritious meals. The services available provide her with everything she needs, from housekeeping to medical support, and there are always fun activities happening to keep her engaged and social. It means the world to my family and I to know that mom is not only safe but truly enjoying this new chapter of her life. Every time we visit, we feel welcomed and reassured that she is surrounded by a wonderful community. We are so grateful to the entire team at Avon Lake Independence Village for the care and kindness they show every day! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a supportive and vibrant senior living community."

"My wife has been at Vitalia Senior Residences at Westlake for less than a week now. I like everything about it. The facility is gorgeous. The room is big. When I walked in, I got a very good vibe on the whole place. And then I brought my kids over there and they got the same feeling, so we felt this is the place for her. The staff members are wonderful. They're great people. They're good people. The place is spotless. There are activities all the time. Something is going on all the time. Full schedule every day. They have music, and they have games with the folks. They keep them very engaged. So far, so good."

"The young lady that showed us around Brookdale Gardens at Westlake did a wonderful job. Kim was very helpful and knowledgeable, and I was very impressed with her. She made us feel like it would be a good place for my dad to live. We were very impressed with the facility as well. It just seemed like a very caring, comfortable, and warm place. It wasn't too large and it was cozy. The residents there looked happy and everybody was very friendly."

"I toured Vitalia Senior Residences at Strongsville. The rooms I was not thrilled with because it's just one giant open room. So I wasn't thrilled with the layout of the room, but I like the facility. It was very kind of high-end. They were just very friendly, very informative, and very inviting. They invited me to bring my friend in for lunch. I would have chosen that one. The only reason I did not choose that one is because they did not have the Medicaid slide after two years. Everything was wonderful. The only issue I had was I didn't believe my friend would like the open floor concept like everything is open. She likes somewhat enclosed bedrooms, the boxy type of rooms she likes rather than the open floor plan. It wasn't as social as the other facility. The people seem to be more on their own independently, like eating. There is no set time like they can go and come as they please. So there's not a set time for lunch or dinner or anything like that. It was basically just everything's very open and fluid. I would say for someone younger it would be much better, but for my friend's needs and the fact that she's 95, the other facility just seemed to meet our needs better."

"I moved into the Bickford of Rocky River two weeks ago. I like the fact that the staff responds right away, and they're very friendly. I don't have anything bad to say about it. It has a lot of curb appeal. It's super clean. They have excellent food. The dining room is very nice. There is an exercise class. There's neighborhood walking, board games, puzzle time, bingo, and crafts. I'm satisfied at the moment."

"I had an in-person tour of Cardinal Court Assisted Living and Memory Care. I was very impressed with everything. They were very thorough in explaining everything to me and very patient. It was a very good tour. The place seemed quite pleasant. The staff explained how the different levels of service worked, which was all educational to me. They even kind of group people into different levels of decline in their dining room, so that was nice to know. The person who showed me around was very patient and helpful. The one room I looked at was for a couple. It may have been a little larger than the single-bedroom ones. I was impressed with how roomy it was. They said they would provide a small refrigerator and a microwave if we wanted. They had two or three courtyards that were enclosed. The building is set up in a circle. Every room has big windows, so it was bright outside, which was nice. They have a private room, and then they have an extra-large private suite. The other thing that kind of impressed me was how the community development director and another gentleman who was the maintenance director have been there since they opened. Several others who are there have been there for multiple years. I think that speaks well that people have stayed and that they are good and well-trained people. They have various activities for people to participate in. They don't leave the residents in their rooms alone because they need somebody to be aware of what they're doing."

"Very good service provided to the community. Family member took part in it for some time. Staff were attentive and good. Food was more than they needed. People were nice with good activities. "

"I cannot express enough how the creators of this brand new family run operation have gotten everything right at Evergreen Gardens. Having visited a dear family friend there multiple times now, I have say this incredible center checks all the boxes beginning with the all-important 5-1 caregiver to resident ratio — which is very important to me. I have also found the in-house, homemade and prepared food to be vastly superior to any facility I’ve ever visited or experienced. The individualized care that Evergreen Gardens delivers is clearly their calling card and what sets them apart. Each and every staffer is an experienced, pleasant, kind-hearted professional who obviously has a sincere dedication and devoted commitment to the individual residents. And the rooms are uniquely and individually designed, very spacious and beautifully appointed. This is truly a wonderful place and the amazing, caring people who created it obviously have a heart for compassionate, dedicated service to our loved ones. I certainly feel the love and sense of family there. I also clearly see and feel all the comforts of home as well as all the safety features and the personable caring/capable staffers. I’m incredibly happy and impressed. I can honestly and wholeheartedly offer my highest personal recommendation and assurances regarding Evergreen Gardens."

"The rooms and facility are always clean and well maintained. Although their jobs are challenging & complicated my experience is that the staff is receptive, compassionate and available to discuss concerns. I feel like the staff is genuinely concerned about the well being of my relative"

"Vitalia North Royalton has everything you could possibly need. They have apartments and they have everything in there. It's not a huge kitchen, but yet a kitchen. Their menu is almost like a restaurant menu. If there's something on there that I know I can eat or whatever, that's no problem. I can or don't have to. Everybody was very friendly, the people that actually live there and the gentleman that took me on the tour. I was very impressed. The rooms seemed very pleasant. I got to meet some of the women that were there, and they're going to have bingo. It was really a nice place. It would be second on my list, except for the entry fee and what it costs per month. Compared to everything that you get there, if you had the money, that will be no problem, but I will never have that kind of money. It looked like the residents were very comfortable and very happy."

"I was a resident of Vista Springs Greenbriar Village. It's an older building, but it's very well-kept. I was actively involved for the first time in several activities, and that is because of the friendliness of the residents. So, I got involved. We had ice cream specials on Friday. They brought in a manicurist to do the patient's nails and give them a facial massage. It wasn't a problem, but they sent me a meal I couldn't eat. The chef came to visit me in my room and asked me to give him a list of the food I could and could not eat. He made my meals special for me every single time until I left. The staff was just beautiful. I've been in a wheelchair for the last four years, but they got me walking. I'm walking better every day. The physical therapy department was good. The building was very clean. When I first moved there for a couple of months, I had a room to myself, and then they had to make some adjustments because I shared a room with another person."

"We toured Brooklyn Pointe Assisted Living. It was great. Everything was perfect for what they offered. I was impressed with the place. It was clean. It was inviting. The rooms were very nice. The staff was great, too. They were very helpful and very informative. The dining area was very nice. They have a regular calendar of activities."
