Independent Living Communities in Copley, OH

"I toured Vitalia Senior Residences at Stow. The place was gorgeous and very nice. Everything seemed like it was going to be great. It was very costly. It was probably going to be very costly for my mom's condition. She doesn't need two-person assist yet, but she needs a lot of assistance. They couldn't give me a price or an estimate or anything like that until she was assessed, whereas others could give me guesstimates at least. I just couldn't get pricing, and I was in a hurry because I wanted to get Mom out of the environment she was in. However, everybody was friendly. I met directors from different departments, and they were all very friendly. It looked like they had good activities too. The cleanliness was good. The room was nice."

"The rooms and entire community environment have been a blessing for our family. My dad is more active, eating healthier, and socializing with many. Speaking of food- it is amazing!! Chad runs an amazing kitchen and his staff all knew my dad's name the very first day. Chad's spicy chili is some of the best chili I have ever had!! As a matter of fact- it's all so very good!!"

"I visited Mulberry Gardens Senior Living. Everything is assisted living there, and it was gorgeous. I liked everything about it. The people were super nice and helpful, and there was a lot of space. The rooms were also beautiful and very spacious. I saw their dining area, and it was also very spacious, especially for people in wheelchairs. The staff who assisted me was wonderful. Some people were doing activities like crafts. They also had porches outside where they could sit and enjoy the weather. Anybody who goes there would love it."

"I went to Eden Vista of Stow. We liked that it looked clean and homey, not like a big, fancy hotel. The apartments had a living area, a kitchen area, a bedroom, and a bathroom. The person who took us around was very friendly and very informative."

"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"

"Hudson Meadows Retirement Community is a very nice facility, up to date and clean. The other place I toured offers townhouses but this one has all apartments. Their amenities are very nice. They have a snack bar and the food is very good. I ate a meal there and it was also very nice. They have a nice theater, they have a pool which is nice, and an indoor pool. They have a nice snack bar where you go, get popcorn or anything that you want."

"We're living here. The appearance is very nice, and the layout is very convenient. The food is good, my wife is playing Scrabble right now, and I have played bingo. The facility has nice surroundings, the staff is very accommodating, and is very nice and helpful."

"I am a current resident of Springwood of Hudson. I've only been here a couple of months. I was told about all the different activities they provide here, so I checked it out and here I am. I was reluctant to come over here. I'm 76 years old. I'm healthy but my husband died, and so I was feeling a little insecure. As soon as I came over, the manager here, Tammy, was just so welcoming and so helpful in showing me around everything, that I was hooked right away. She was great at answering all my questions and making me feel like this was the right place for me. It's not an old folks' home. Tammy does all kinds of activities with us, takes us to special field trips to different places. We have activities here in the big social area. Everybody here as well as the maintenance people are incredible, everybody does a really nice job, and everybody's friendly. This apartment is perfect for me. It is a large two-bedroom, two-bath, with a little balcony porch. There is an indoor parking area, which is nice, especially in the wintertime, to be able to park your car. It's really a lovely facility. The other thing that I really like about it is we back onto a lake and a golf course. I have the woods in front of me right now. As the leaves fall, then I'll see more of the lake and the golf course. You're not looking out at a bunch of other buildings. They do not provide meals. This is an independent apartment, so you get your own food, but twice a month they provide a meal like a breakfast. We have a breakfast for the community. There is a retirement home right next door, so we can go right over there for eight meals a month for free. On the 4th of July, we had a party and a big barbecue. This past weekend, we had another cookout and big party. They provide those kinds of things. They provide games, card games, and bingo. It's fun, we laugh and have a good time. Nobody gets upset or anything like that. Sometimes we go on a shopping trip or sometimes Tammy will take us to a nice restaurant someplace. We sign up for those things. Tammy will drive the little Danbury bus and provide transportation for us. We also have crafts. Several of the ladies here like to provide different crafts to teach us, hat making and some of the other things. Tammy does crafts with us as well. We've done some painting activities and some simple crafty things. We have something planned every day. Tomorrow, they are supposed to take a pontoon boat ride on one of the lakes. They have a men's breakfast. We have an exercise class once a week. They also have movies on Saturday nights. We have a big activity room which would also be where we have our meals and we play the games and do our different activities, but they have one of those big screen TVs and they'll put on Netflix and movies. They provide electricity, which is in your heating and air-conditioning. You have to pay for your own internet, but they provide the cable. I've lived in regular apartments before and this is very good. I'm getting the bang for my buck."

"I'm living in Danbury Broadview Heights. Felicia is the executive director. I moved into Danbury four months ago and Felicia was hired a couple months after I moved in and she inherited some existing problems and within a month or so she had them all straightened out to resident satisfaction. She's a very positive, upbeat person and interacts with residents and employees in a very positive, upbeat manner. My interaction with the other staff is always very positive. My apartment is large and it's kept very clean by the housekeeping staff and there is plenty of storage space. There's a wide variety of daily activities to fit many different personality types. There's something to appeal to everyone. They have a back patio where you can sit and chat or read. Sometimes, they have happy hours out there where you take a beverage and mingle with the other residents. Felicia was able to weed out staff that gave less than her standard of care to residents and hire on to replace them with people that were more up to her standards and more resident focused. If anything, the only complaint about food is there's too much of it. One of the reasons that we checked in there is because it looks beautiful as we drove past and it was close to my mom and it was just as nice on the inside as we imagined it was going to be on the outside."

"I toured Summit Point. It was clean and very organized. The staff was beautiful, answered all the questions, and even told us things that I probably would have forgotten to ask. They were very nice. The rooms were beautiful. They have help buttons all over if you need a hand. They had a shuttle service and they did group things as far as grocery stores and people wanting to go to the grocery store. Every Monday they went to a different grocery store. They put a calendar out. There was a lot for them to do. I've seen the dining area. It was beautiful. They had linens on the tables. They put out a menu, and if you didn't want what they had on the menu, they had an alternative menu for you to eat off of. They had like a little coffee shop there that you can get your coffee. You can do all-day coffee. And then they had a little grab-and go-section with snacks and whatnot. I thought that was beautiful."

"Staff is interactive with residents and family. Quick to respond and assist in all ways, going “the extra mile”. Genuinely care about people - producing a family type atmosphere. Safe and clean facility. Food is good. Very glad to be a part of Story Point Strongsville. Highly recommend."

"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 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."
