Independent Living Communities in Avon, OH

"I toured Vitalia Active Adult Community North Olmsted. The staff was very nice, very accommodating, and very informative. I liked the food choices and the way that meals were set up, where they could do kinds of things on their own, but it would be much better for someone younger than my friend, being that she was 95 and couldn't really see a lot and can't get mobile herself, and she's kind of dependence on an attendant. The facility was very clean. It wasn't as social and kind of homey because they have availability to go around as they please, and my friend wasn't able to do that. They have that open room concept and she does not like that."

"We rent one of the Villa residences. Our home is beautifully laid out and furnished with excellent quality appliances. The community of neighbors are warm, welcoming and delightful company. The Danbury staff are available and responsive to any need. Salon services and entertaining activities add to the feeling of community! The compound is wonderfully designed and many of us enjoy walking and riding our bikes around the pond and neighborhood. We feel blessed to be here."

"Everything at Normandy was very nice. They had a variety of amenities, rooms, and garage parking. They had buses, and free, scheduled trips. The cost was on the high side."

"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."

"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've signed a contract to move to StoryPoint Strongsville. They are preparing a room for me on the first floor. They're going to try to make the cabinet in the bathroom smaller so I can swing my legs around to get in my wheelchair easier. They're accommodating my situation. I was very impressed. The dining room was very nice. It's a 29-year-old building that they completely renovated and made it look like brand new. The landscaping is new. The windows are all new. Everything is brand new. The roof and furnaces are new. The bus is brand new. They also have a facility where I can walk in a pool, which is gonna make me very happy. It's independent, but I am told that they have three or four aides. I will have one aide six times a day if I needed that much to get me up, get my shoes and socks and pants on. I will need them twice a week to help me take a bath. The apartment I looked at was on the second floor, but the one I'm going to be moving in is a tad smaller on the first floor and the rent is cheaper on the first floor. I'll be very close to the front door. I'll be down the hall from the lady that helped me out at StoryPoint. I fell in love with the place. I think I'm going to be very happy. My friend and I liked it very much. Most of my furniture is in their garage area storage facility and they're not charging me for it. I don't think they have as many of a staff serving, but it's a smaller group of people. The food I had was good. The problem was they only have one elevator instead of two and I was very happy that they're going to put me on the first floor rather than the second floor."

"The assisted living facility that I found for my client is called Mount Alverna Village. It is run by the Franciscan Sisters from Chicago. My client is a former Franciscan priest. The place is very relaxed and comfortable. I think the staff is very helpful and very interested in trying to do whatever they can do to make my client’s stay there as pleasant as possible. He seems to be thriving there. The room is physically adequate. The dining area is not terribly large, but it doesn’t need to be. It is sufficient for those that would be in the room at any one time. They have various activities, too. "

"We toured Vitalia Rockside - Active Adult Community. We viewed everything. The directors toured us around. We saw the availalble apartments and things of that nature. Everything was very nice, and we enjoyed our visit with them. They have a lot of activities for male seniors. They have a men's group there to help men bond with other men because the population is usually more female to male when it comes to seniors, so they try to help out the men who live there as well."

"My mother was at Danbury Brunswick. The entire facility, the staff, and the residents were all very friendly and accommodating. It's a very friendly place to be. The staff was sometimes a little hard to get in touch with, but when we did communicate, they were very accommodating. They were very good, answered all our questions, addressed all our concerns, and very professional. She was in a studio apartment. She started out in a one-bedroom, which was very nice. It was an excellent size then she moved to a studio department, which was a very nice size too. It was clean and accessible to all the amenities, the dining room and the activities. Everything was very good in the room. It did cost her less. The reason she moved was more of her mobility had changed. Her first room was on the second floor, and it was quite a distance from the elevator. Moving her downstairs gave her easier access to the dining room and such. They have busses, although we really didn't use those because I was there to help mom. They had a very nice dining room and a sitting area that was kind of like a living room when you walked in with couches and TV. There were activities daily throughout the day. They were two different rooms and one of the rooms we had used for family gatherings and people used it a lot. They had an outdoor patio space with umbrella tables. It was very nice. It was located off of a main busy road, however, it was down a side street and very park-like setting across the street from a lake. It was a beautiful setting. They had a gazebo. You'd never know you were that close to a main road. For residents who were more independent, there is a major grocery store and restaurant within walking distance. The location was very nice. The meals were good and portions were good considering the residents. Even the first time we walked in there, we felt very comfortable. It felt very welcoming. They really came up with some good ideas and a lot of participation in activities. It's pretty competitively priced. We just had some trouble sometimes with getting laundry done and stuff like that."

"I'm a resident of Danbury Broadview Heights. The help here is great. They're there in a snap. You don't have to ask them twice. They're very caring. They get to know you. If you need something, they're there right away. I got a two-bedroom apartment, two full baths with a shower and everything. It's pretty good sized. I have a family room, living room combined. I got a little kitchen too with a full-sized refrigerator and stove. They have different ones and it depends what your need is. If you want a one-bedroom, they'll take care of it. There are different activities. They had trivia, tap, and a headband game in the bistro. They got a beautiful library upstairs, then they've got a courtyard. They usually have functions and the food is good, too. The medical part of it and the management department is pretty good. They get to know everybody personally. That's like a home away from home. When I leave, I never lock the door. That's how safe I felt it is."

"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 toured Rose Senior Living Beachwood for assisted living. The apartment style was very nice. They supply a refrigerator, stove, and microwave. They supply three meals a day."
