Memory Care Communities in Miamisburg, OH

"Bickford of Middletown has been wonderful taking care of my mom. The place is very nice and kind of country style, and my mom is a farm lady, so that's nice. It's very clean, and I'm very satisfied with it. There's a little issue with the food, and the residents are not very happy. It seems to repeat itself a lot. The room size is nice, and they have a lot of things going on. It's a pretty building inside and out. They have lots of activities and plenty of things to do. The price is a little higher than others."

"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. "

"Brookdale Oakwood was nice, but I just don't think it was the best fit for her. It was on the second floor, and it was kind of dark. It just didn't seem homey; seemed more like a hotel to me. The tour and all that were great. They answered all of our questions. There was just nobody there to give pricing. The staff was very nice and knowledgeable. The facility was clean. They were just going through some remodeling. They had the stairs shut off because they had a leak of some sort. It just looked small and confined."

"Extremely clean, well equipped facility with a very pleasant staff"

"We toured the assisted living community of Aaron's Garden Senior Living & Memory Care for my mom. It was nice and clean when we went in. The tour person or the admission person was very kind and answered all of our questions. The rooms were also very nice and immaculate. There weren't many residents there because I guess they were on a field trip or an outing, but the residents seemed very happy there. The place smelled clean and had a nice home-like feel, which is what I liked about it. It is small and intimate. If they didn't have that long waiting list, that's the place that I would have trusted my mother to be in, because even the staff seemed friendly and very attentive to the residents' needs. In the other places I went, they didn't even greet me, and I think that's very important. When you go somewhere, the staff members should always greet you with a smile, and I was greeted with a smile there. It just made me feel comfortable and welcome. It made me feel like my mother would be welcome there, too."

"We visited 10 Wilmington Place, it was more expensive than the others. The main building was very nice and nicely set up. The staff was fine, they were nice. The rooms look nice and the facilities were very nice. They had some ladies' clubs, various things going on like crocheting stuff, card games, movie nights, and a lot of TVs around."

"Traditions of Lebanon is a lot nicer than the other place. I am kind of considering it. It's a smaller community, but it basically has everything you need. It is like a neighborhood or like suburbia with independent quarters, but they are like condos, and you are renting the space. One of the best parts is that they have attached garages, minimal kitchens, and nice little patios. They have a community clubhouse, and then they have the main building where you would go for meals and stuff if you want to. They charge extra for the meals, though. I think there were many meals a week included with your rental, and then you could add more meals if you wanted. The community was all walkable. They had nice sidewalks around the area. They even had a garden area, which was kind of nice. The only discount to that would be that they didn't have additional levels of living. It was strictly independent. I don't remember being totally impressed with the dining area, but it was nice. They occasionally have barbecues and things like that, and they have a nice gathering area there, too."

"The facilities are clean and organized. The staff treated my dad incredibly well and went above and beyond, in my opinion (one example was singing to him at night to help him fall asleep!). My dad enjoyed the home-cooked food, and meal time seemed more like a family dining affair than a typical senior living cafeteria style meal. I recommend OSL for sure!"

"Traditions of Beavercreek was all private pay, and we needed something that had Medicaid if needed down the road. That's the only drawback as far as I could see at that point. The staff was very knowledgeable and very pleasant to deal with. She showed us the rooms, the dining room and everything. They didn't have two-bedroom units, and they were all one-bedrooms. They were nice-looking and spacious. I was really impressed with the community. The staff was very helpful, too."

"I couldn't say enough about Liberty Place Memory Care. The girl I was touring with was incredible. She knew so much about the disease of dementia. She was teaching me and gave me a book that was written by an author who was a doctor. They study under the doctor about geriatrics and dementia. They train all their staff, even the janitors and laundry people, under the care of that doctor who wrote the book. She even gave me a copy of it, and it was very informative, so I can't praise her enough. If I were going to move my dad, I would have moved him there. They just don't allow cameras, so my sisters weren't on board with moving in there. We want to see our dad through our camera. I checked the dining area and it was fine. It looked five-star, and there was a family kitchenette."

"My mother has moved into Fairborn Assisted Living. It is relatively close to where she lived, and so all of her friends could come see her easily. She just likes the place. I like the convenience for her. They really love her and have welcomed her. There was just one hiccup with her medication, but we're pretty sure that's all straightened out now. That was the only downside. The staff members are all very nice. My mother seems to like the food, though she doesn't eat as big a meal as they provide. The layout of the place is great. They have elevators where they're needed, and stairs if they're not. Everything is pretty centralized with the dining area and the other amenities they have. They have bingo and all kinds of different excursions that people sign up for. My mother has been signing up for those, and she seems to like them all. The activities are good."

"I toured Beehive Homes of Liberty Township. I liked the fact that they were small-scale. I felt like if I'd been there I could have gotten more one-on-one and more personal attention. It was a very clean facility. The staff was very caring. I have no experience with them, but just from what I observed, they seemed nice and caring."

"I went to Brookdale Englewood before this COVID mess started. I was very pleased. Actually, I was excited about it. I liked the cleanliness, the personality, the morale of the employees, and I loved the design of the rooms. I saw the dining room before anyone was there for dinner. The staff was wonderful."

"It is about five minutes from my house. I like that they have table cloths on the dining tables and have a fairly sizable menu every night. They always have at least two or sometimes three specials or extra choices, so it almost feels like dining out. The room that Mom has is like her old suite and looks and feels more like an apartment than an institutional place. We were also able to get my father-in law his own room in the last couple of weeks. He is so excited to have his own space and to not have to share a room. The staff was especially good at answering all of my questions. I’ve been very pleased. "
