The Best Memory Care Communities in Miami County, OH

"We toured 10 Wilmington Place. It seemed very nice. It was the best place I've been to. The room is as small as you can get. It's not very big. The upkeep was outstanding. The dining room looked fine. There were several, and the place has three floors. I think there's a dining room on each floor. The parking lot was a little crowded. The room has windows all around. It looked down over Dayton. There wasn't so much a patio; it was more like a big porch with windows."

"We toured Fairborn Assisted Living. They were very friendly, and my sister was impressed with them. We went to the memory side, and they did not have any openings at the time, so she was on the waiting list. When we walked out of the building, she said that's where she wanted to be. All of us had a positive experience with them. The person who gave the tour took us over to the assisted living side as well to just kind of show us the first floor, which had the dining room and the living room area. They have an activity room and a patio that's enclosed, so everybody can go outside if they want to. It was a little garden area with a couple of benches underneath a covered overhang where the residents could sit and talk, which was kind of nice. We were out there for a couple of minutes. The memory care unit is a lockdown unit, and the residents are escorted to the assisted living side by a staff member so they can participate in activities whenever they want, and then they are escorted back to the memory care side. The family members are given a code to be able to get into the memory side whenever they want to come and visit, so they have access, but the residents that are there are locked down in case they have wandering issues. We did not go into the assisted living side of the dining room, but the memory care has a breakfast area there. They have 14 residents on the memory side, so it was big enough for 14 of them to have a meal together. From what I was told, the person who does the cooking makes meals according to the residents' tastes."

"Brookdale Oakwood was very nice. They had almost the same amenities and everything as the other facilities, like common areas and activities for the residents, but what I liked was that they had a pet dog in the facility (my mom loves dogs). They also had a fish tank and a bird cage with some birds in it. The staff was very nice. They showed us a studio."

"We went to Traditions of Beavercreek yesterday. It's an excellent facility. The facility itself was neat and clean. The staff were very cordial and kind to each other. I saw them helping several people. It seemed like there were a lot more people in the main building who were in more advanced stages than my husband and I. We are still independent. We looked at the independent homes and we're very impressed. It's a very good facility. They let us take home information about their activities and their menu. We saw their dining area. The lobby was very gorgeous. It was very impressive. It seemed like a really good facility."

"The Carlyle House is beautiful. It is very nice, but they don't have any rooms. They have a chef, and it looks like he was preparing something really good. The interactions with the residents were a lot better than the other facilities. They all have a list of activities. They all have a schedule, but that doesn't mean they do them, but the schedule looks fine. You are only there for a little while, so you only get a quick glimpse. The facility looks really nice. The ambiance is very nice, and the staff that assisted us was very knowledgeable. His own grandmother is there. I would recommend them. "

"We visited the assisted living facility of The Wellington at Dayton a couple of years ago. It just seemed like a really nice place to be, and the price was right, and all of the services they provided were just what my parents would need. The staff members were very friendly and helpful. Everything in the facility was clean, and it was nice."

"The staff is amazing! They treated my husband like family and accommodated his unique food preferences, responded to his daily needs with compassion. When it was time for him to come home, the communication was quick and arrangements were easy. We enjoy continued friendships with the staff and residents even though he is no longer there. Just like family."

"Shawnee Estates Senior Living is very nice. It's probably the one we're going to select. The rooms are big, and the service is very good. They're very polite and informative. They showed us the activities that they have in the facility, different lounging areas, where they sometimes eat, and where they feed them."

"We visited the assisted living facility of Fairmont of Washington Township, and it's really beautiful. It was just a little out of our price range. The lady who runs it was wonderful. She just had a really great personality and was very kind to my parents. My parents, my mom especially, loved her. She's very helpful, and she still calls every now and then. We were able to sample the food, and it was very good. It was nice that they had options on their menu. The facility was very clean and very nice."

"Our mother moved in about a month ago and we are overall pleased with everything. The food is good most days from what I can tell, mother is a picky eater and even when she does eat it’s not much. The activities director Rea is AMAZING, the things she does with the patients leaves us in awe. The aides are nice and treat our mother and us with respect when we visit, they do seem to be short staffed a lot which is the only issue my family has with the facility. Would recommend to anyone looking for an all memory facility."

"My friend is in Randall Residence of Tipp City now. She moved into their assisted living in November, and it's been very nice. Sometimes they're late with the medication. Aside from that, everything else seems to be working out OK. One thing I know is that everything seems really easily accessible. Her room is near the front, which is great. The dining facilities and everything is clean and fresh. They decorate. They're taking all the precautions they need to do because of COVID. The food actually looks like it's out in a restaurant. The staff is very caring and helpful. The building is up-to-date, and they care about how it looks. They have nice services like taking patients to doctor's appointments and providing them with little outings. They have crafts for the ladies and gentlemen too. Even the residents have been very welcoming to me, and I don't even know them. It's expensive there, but I would say she's getting her money's worth."

"The apartments at Cypress Pointe Health Campus were amazing. They were very well done and had a lot of closets. There's a lot of storage. I liked it. Their activity center was very nice. They have it all. They have lots of things planned. It's a very nice place. The lady that we interviewed with was just amazing. It's beautiful. One of the things that I particularly like is that their continuing care is right there. You don't have to go anywhere for it. Everybody we talked to was just really nice and very helpful. It's clean, and it was very good."

"Having my family member stay at Hearth and Home of Vandalia has been the best decision our family and I have made since we began assisting our loved one two years ago. Our family member loves the facility and is constantly bragging about the excellent care he receives."

"We toured Spring Hills Singing Woods. The community looks very clean. It was very nice. They greeted us very well. The room that we toured was almost on the small side, but it had a separate little bedroom and a living room area with a little door that went out to a patio, so it was very nice. The staff took us into a room. She went over everything that applied to my sister's needs. She informed us that for assisted living, you had to be there for a year doing the spend down before they would accept the Medicaid waiver. She showed us around the facility and also one of the rooms that were empty while we were there. We were there around 9:30 in the morning, so we didn't see anybody doing activities."
