Independent Living Communities in Rocky River, 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."

"I've lived here in Independence Village of Avon Lake for a little over three years now. When I moved in, there were lots of friendly people around. I live on the third floor, which is the top apartment. At first I wanted to live on like the first floor, but when I look out my window on the third floor, I just really, really liked the view. It's beautiful. Instead of wanting a patio, I wanted a third floor view. There is always something going on here. They give you a monthly menu of from like Sunday to Saturday. They have movies, lectures, and exercise, which I usually do once every day, and happy hours with people that come and sing or play instruments, which is delightful, that's about three times a week. You can play pool. There's a lot of game type of activities. 90% of the time, you can find something to do. The food here is fantastic. They always give you at least three choices for dinner. All I get here is dinner. I don't participate in breakfast or lunch, which I could, but I have a car so I can go shopping on my own. At breakfast time, we also have a little cafe that they stock up with coffee, juice, and water, something to eat every day, different things like maybe toast one day and muffins another day, and a couple of other things. They always have two or three choices and if you don't like any of those choices, you can always get a hotdog or a toasted cheese sandwich or maybe a piece of pizza. Unfortunately, I gain weight here. Everything looks nice and up-to-date and in good condition. The first two years I was here, they only increased the rent by 5 or 6%. This time, it's a little higher, so I was a little shocked. When i moved in, it was very reasonable."

"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."

"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."

"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. "

"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."

"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."

"The staff at Storey Point are genuinely kind and friendly. They are quick witted, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable. They have their off days like the rest of us. But they stay positive always! Katie goes out of her way to ensure each person feels welcome and knows what is happening. Jamie and Casey run the place with kindness, and gratitude. The rooms are very spacious. Even the studio apartment is more than spacious for any one person. Everything is new. CLEAN. And comfortable. They have a care team IN-HOUSE!! VERY affordable. Food is wonderful and portions are perfect! My Father is there and I visit him all the time. I have meals with him quite often. But most of all, there are plenty of activities to keep him busy as well. I could not ask for a better place."

"We have had the unfortunate need to scour through 15+ nursing homes to find the right home to provide assisted living services for our Dad, only to have the last one REALLY the ball many times. LUCKILY, we found Danbury in Broadview Heights. Felicia - the facilities director, and Allison (sales director) and her crew of nurses, aides and other support staff REALLY care about taking care of the elderly and do an amazing job. They lead with their heart. STAND OUT AIDES are Amanda and Leah. What is great is Felicia LISTENS, makes adjustments as needed, and, is confident enough in her staff and systems to allow us to use remote cameras. This is helpful in training, course-corrections, or finding the inevitable occasional new hire that needs some extra training, needs to get with the program, or needs to get replaced. This is where MOST of these assisted living facilities fail, they cannot adapt, they do not listen to the residents' advocates and family to make improvements, they make the cuts in the WRONG wrong service priorities. ALSO, the food here is amazing, they have great family events for the residents and their families that run REALLY smoothly (a Hawaiian themed party that fed nearly 300 people in one afternoon)! Kudos to the chefs, kitchen staff and the events coordinator! They have plenty of daily events for the residents themselves as well. Finally - the facility itself is beautiful, with NICE, WIDE hallways, many activities rooms and quiet nooks. The Parkinson's wing and added Parkinson's support services is a huge plus as well. The maintenance team does a great job with the move-in process, and added support."

"The rooms vary in size and you have a choice to find one that fits your needs and monetary funds. Each day the menu changes for specials for breakfast, lunch and dinner. However, they offer a variety of foods that remain the same daily. The staff is wonderful. I want to "shout out" to a few staff members. Cindy who is at the front desk ready to greet family and residents with a smile and help whenever/wherever she can. Jackie who is in housekeeping who always has a greeting and kind words for residents and family. She is ready to assist with any residential needs. Colin in maintenance continues to help get the residents established in their apartments so everything is operating. He is willing to stop in to check on anything that may need "tweaking" to help the residents. NOW, I know I have mentioned a few staff members, but everyone at Danbury Senior Living in Brunswick, Ohio is friendly, helpful and caring. The nursing staff is remarkable. They care so much about the residents and their needs."

"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."

"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. "
