Memory Care Communities in Parma, OH

"My parents have been residents in the independent living at the Rockside community for 7 months. Is it perfect? No. But they are attentive to concerns and make an effort to rectify any problems. The staff is friendly and helpful. There are a fair number of activities. They try to have events for special days. My parents frequently talk about the beautiful valentines day dinner and the eclipse party. There was a women’s tea for Christmas that my mom thoroughly enjoyed. My mom moved from their home reluctantly. Yesterday she told me she doesn’t miss her house anymore and that she loves her new home at Vitalia. That speaks volumes!"

"My experience at Ravinia Estate was thru a family member living in the memory care area. The staff are caring, approachable, and attentive. During my initial meeting, I already felt my family member would be safe here and well cared for. The facility is beautiful and a pleasure to be in. The staff are always welcoming and hard at work to keep residents safe and engaged. I felt like the staff really got to know the residents and their family members. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for assisted living or memory care."

"Rooms are nice. Staff is wonderful, of course like anywhere they could use more employees. Turnover seems high, but I understand this is typical in the industry. The group activities are very good therapy and their conscious effort to get residents out to socialize has been very good. They do a good job with housekeeping and general upkeep."

"This center is a step above the others. They truly care for their residents. They put their heart and soul into making sure their residents are physically and mentally living their best lives. Everyone is family."

"I took my friend over at Rockport Senior Living, but she was stubborn. She said it was too small, but it seemed fine to me. They had a dining room and a small room with the TV. She'd be pretty well set there. She just didn't think it was big enough. It's a nice facility. The people there were friendly. It was a good place. They had elevators and nurses on duty. It would be a nice place for her."

"I was very impressed with Vitalia Senior Residences at Strongsville. It was lovely. Everything was nice. We have friends that have gone there and they were extremely happy there. It's a good place. It's just a little bit too much Big Brother with wrist bands and things in the rooms. We're not ready to be under such close scrutiny, and it takes away a lot of your privacy. They have no facilities for cars except for them to be parked outside. There's a pool, there are games, and there's a bus to take you to the casinos and other excursions. The staff member that took care of us was very pleasant and very informative."

"I come to visit an old friend and I always have a great experience. Its a warm, yet, sophisticated atmosphere. There's livingrooms for different types of dementia stages. The staff there are really kind and there managers seem to have extensive knowledge on Alzheimer's. I think the daughter goes to a support group there too. I would recommend this place to anyone who needs dementia care. "

"My friend has moved into Bickford of Rocky River. The reason we chose them is because of the speed at which I could get him in there, and it seemed to be very beneficial to him, and in fact, it is. The staff is very helpful. My friend's room is a one-room L-shaped with a small sink for a kitchen area and one large bathroom. They have a common area room, and I've seen the dining room and the grounds. As for activities, the other day I was there, they had bingo, and one other day, they had some sort of like a badminton game or something like that going on. The activities I think are just garden variety things. I don't know how much they add to people's general lifestyle. And I think all these places are way overpriced."

"The staff at Symphony at Olmsted Falls makes this tough journey so much gentler. They are patient, caring and always have a smile and a shoulder to lean on. The facility is clean and bright, the food is top notch, and there are lots of entertainment options. Put your trust in Symphony. You will be glad you did."

"I loved Woodside Senior Living, but once we got there, we didn't realize it was pretty expensive. We were also told that they would have to send a nurse to the facility where my cousin is at in order to make sure that she's a good candidate for the assisted living. The staff was friendly. There were lots of wonderful activities for them to participate in. Some of the seniors had a field trip at the casino the day I went in. I thought it was very impressive that they have a little store there, a salon, a nail shop, and a little chapel where if they want to go to church on a Sunday, they can do that. It was ideal. Each apartment has a little patio. There's a beautiful area for just sitting out in warm weather. It's very clean. They have transportation for field trips, an area where they can go in and exercise, and they can get therapy."

"It was nice. The place was cozy and very homey. The rooms were very nice. The space was good. The staff members were helpful."

"I toured StoryPoint Shaker Heights. The place is beautiful. The decorations are beautiful. The care they give the people is beautiful, but it has a small stench. That's a new building, and it should not have a urine smell to it. I have friends who stay there as well. The staff is nice and friendly. I guess everywhere is short. I've been there several times, but the last time I was there, I guess they had a few issues with staffing being short as far as assisting the people getting dressed, and then the kitchen help. They have three people who help with the kitchen, and the actual cook didn't show up that day. So, they had to order food out, which they were on point with ordering the food out. But I think that there should always be a backup cook and not just one person that's being a cook. The facility and the upkeep looked beautiful. I mean, like everything, when you come in, it's beautiful artwork. It looks clean. I don't know if they're not using some bleach or something when they clean. I think they need to invest in something a bit more stringent to kill the scent because you can use basic bleach and water, and it won't have that smell."
