Nursing Home Communities in Akron, OH

"This is a beautiful and newish facility. The assisted living staff has been great with my mom even during this horrible pandemic. They are thoughtful and trying to make the best of a very tough situation. The restaurant staff is over the top and do everything they can to make sure the residents enjoy their meals. I wish I could take care of my mom on my own but since I can't, I'm glad Rockynol is here for us. "

"I am in a one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment here in HCR Manor Care. It also has a kitchen, living room and dining room. The staff is helpful and I am satisfied with their care. They have people I can talk to. We are mostly in the same basket so I can relate to some of them and they seemed nice. Sometimes we have visitors and sometimes we have bingo night. The can improve on the food because it is not homey. But it is all good and I am very happy. "

"My brother was admitted to Canal Point suffering from stage 4 lung cancer. He was there twice after treatment at the hospital during his first stay. Even though we weren't thrilled at first with him being sent there, we were pleased with the care he received, The staff was friendly and attentive to his needs. Most of all though my brother felt safe and was secure with the fact that the nurses and staff were quick to address any difficulties he had. Unfortunately after being sent back to the hospital, my brother was sent to hospice where he passed the end of January 2018, but as a family we are grateful for the care he received at Canal Pointe."

"I've been in this facility for 61/2 weeks now. I still currently a resident. All has been top rate-superior nurses-aids-rehab-food-cleaning staff. I can't say enough about the complete staff. They have made my stay here (scary at first because of what I had done to myself) comforting. Conversations have been wonderful and helpful. God was good to me in this whole experience. Thank you all and God Bless each of you. "

"Lorantffy Care Center is a wonderful assisted living facility and I would recommend it to anyone looking to put loved ones into a new home. It is a very clean facility and the residents as well as staff are very friendly in manner and willing to help. The prices are extremely affordable and I can't tell you how many times my grandparents have mentioned how they love the facility. Four out of five stars, due to its location. "

"My mother is at The Pinnacle (Summit Villa). It is an older facility, and you can tell that from the outside, but it is homey. Everybody seems friendly and helpful. The food is average. They have bingo, celebrations for Father's Day, and ice cream socials."

"My stepfather was in Wyant Woods for six years, and when we visited him, they took very good care of him. He never had a bed sore even though he was bedridden. They helped him eat when he needed the extra help eating. He had brain cancer; he had some problem eating, so they helped him all the time there. They would update my mother anytime, and they take him to the dining room so he could interact with people. The nurses would come in and visit him when he didn’t feel well, and they were very good with him. "

"I am a resident of Tallmadge Health and Rehab. They are constantly running out of supplies even simple things like washcloths. The food service needs some help. I have to give it to them, they're trying, but as a type 2 diabetic, it is a struggle for me every day to try to keep myself with a nutritious balance that doesn't wreck my blood sugar level, but they serve so much starch. They're pretty clean. They've got a nice staff who does that very well when they're here. Some of the aides are still good, but the good ones speak up, and then they're fired. So I live here in this constant paranoia, of people so afraid to do any self-initiative because they're so afraid they're going to be fired. And a lot of them just quit. There are bookshelves and things here. They're pretty good at that, they've had a lot of donations, but as for senior activities, it's very rare that we ever get out to go shopping. They have only one little van that doesn't hold more than four people. So it can take months before you're allowed to get out of the place. When the people got better jobs, they were not replaced, so, we have an activity director who doesn't like people. She's very introverted and very paranoid. I'm not allowed to make toast even with my brand new toaster because they feel uncomfortable. I asked them if I could bring my good bread to the kitchen, would they toast it? "No, that's against our policy." That's the kind of unreasonableness I deal with here."

"We transferred my dad to Falls Village Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation. It's a clean facility and it's good, but he complains about not getting service when he pushes his button. They leave him in his diapers for 42 hours before they change him. They have a dialysis center attached to the nursing home, and so he is transported there three times a week. So far, the staff has been good. I saw the food and it looked good, but my dad said it tasted bad. They need to be more responsible when their residents push the button for help. It could have been a bad day that just happened, because when I see him he looks clean."

"Bath Manor Special Care Centre was nice. The staff wasn’t always available when needed. My mom had a nice, shared room. They weren't fully equipped to deal with someone with dementia, but they do have a memory care facility."

"This is older facility however has a lot of repeat business because of how they provide care for residents. The place is clean and taken care of. I visited with my friend's family member and everyone was friendly and helpful. She said that her grandmother was here first, then my friend needed rehab and now her mother is here because care provided is excellent. STNAs and nursing working hard and taking care of residents"

"The Bath Creek Estates staff goes above and beyond caring for my 95-year-old mother. Besides routine care, they genuinely care about her personal well-being. They find ways to calm her, make her laugh, and keep her active with daily activities. My mom lives for Bingo and Bible Study! A shout out to Kayla S., Marie D., Rorey, and Casey at the front desk. You have made such a difference in my mom's life, and her family is most appreciative. My mom has gained weight since being admitted in March 2022. She looks forward to her three meals a day and usually cleans her plate!"

"The team at ManorCare Barberton works so very hard throughout the entire process. My Grandmother was there for several years until her peaceful passing. The staff always treated her like gold. The rooms seem to be very fitting for the population. My grandma really enjoyed bingo, the coffee and talk they would have each morning, and most importantly, I think she enjoyed the sense of family and community that seems to be fostered there. "

"My mother is in Altercare of Cuyahoga Falls for rehab. We weren't able to go inside with COVID going on. We chose it because we went on the five star recommendations that the hospital gave us. Everyone has been great. She is in quarantine right now, so she can't do any activities at the moment. A couple of days from now she's gonna be able to get into the general population of it, but as of right now she's in a room by herself. She said the food is fine. Every human we've asked a question to, we've got an immediate phone call back. We got input, and any problem we've had, we've called somebody and got it fixed. They have been wonderful. Everything we need they've gone out of their way to help us with."
