Nursing Home Communities in Northfield, OH

"I did a tour of Brentwood Healthcare Center Inc. They have their own room; they don't have ones that are shared which is nice. I like the location. It's a good area, it's easy to get to, easy to see. The person that I spoke to was very informative, very nice, very professional. They have activities that they are involved in, like different nights they might have something different going on in the summer, outside and such, which is nice. One thing that I do know, but I'm not saying that others don't do it, they request that you have at least two years of self-pay. I know it varies with different places, but that one was two years of self-pay. Maybe we can work with certain things, but they would like two years. I'm not saying that you can't negotiate, but that is their policy there. It's a nice facility. The time I went in there, Covid was going on. I did ask if they have some short staffing, and they said yes. Now it's even worse, I'm sure. There were different things that they did. I like that they had their own room because sometimes you have to share a room in certain facilities. A lot of them, they're cheaper, but I think that one was $6400, I believe. I like that it was very centrally located for all of us, I like the area. It was very nice, very clean. The only thing was the two years. If your funds aren't there, then I could see a year, but for some people with two years, it's kind of touch and go. The staff was very, very formal. He had a degree in social work. He came from a family that had the mother run another place, so he knew what he was talking about. He kind of grew up with the background from his mom. So, he was very informative, very nicely dressed, very professional, took the time for any questions. I think I was there for about an hour."

"My experience with Walton Manor stems not only from my grandmother being a current resident, but also from my time as a volunteer ten years ago. The grounds and building itself are well kept and beautiful. I like the fact that they also offer both private and shared rooms, and the nearest full service hospital is less than 3 miles away. Their in-house medical equipment is up to date, and they are always replacing existing equipment with the latest state of the art models. The staff is always very courteous and helpful whenever I visit, and their detailed stories and updates on my grandmother make me confident she is getting the individual attention she needs. They are also great about calling my family with weekly updates even when there are no major concerns. The event staff is great about scheduling many daily activities to entertain and fit the needs of all residents. It is comforting to see that our money goes not only toward my grandmother's basic needs such as medical attention, room, and nutritional needs, but fun activities and special guests to brighten her days.

"Rooms okay, food cold and terrible Staff overall unresponsive to my needs. There are some good people. Very poor internet access. Things missing from MY room. They act like it’s theirs. Come and go with no knocking. Room floors dirty. Waste basket not emptied often enough. I’ve been here over a week and still none shower."

"I was a resident at this facility for six months. I was moved here by my family after spending time at what I consider a sub par nursing home. I am so grateful that they moved me. The nursing staff took very good care of me. My day shift nurses Jan and Amanda were exceptional. The state trained nursing assistants , STNAs , also did a good job of taking care of me and my needs. When I needed help, I would use the call button and someone would come to my room shortly after I used the button. The staff went from being staff to friends. The housekeeping staff took great pride in the cleanliness of their areas whether it was my room or the common areas. The rooms were comfortable. There is an associate there who daily brings around the schedule of daily events. Once a week she comes around to the residents and has a checklist of things to check in each room. In addition, she has questions for the residents to ensure that the quality of care is there. She even asks simple questions such as “ Do you have fresh water? “ If there is any type of issue you can bring it up to her or any other staff member at any time. The therapy staff helped me on my road to recovery. The two male therapists Luke and Randy helped me learn to walk after being bedridden for almost a year. I had a short stay at a local hospital while at the Oaks. Much to my surprise , Michelle in admissions , came to visit me one afternoon. I was thrilled to see her. Michelle exemplifies the character of the staff at the Oaks. The facility is located in a very nice and safe area close to the center of Brecksville on Route 21. You don’t have to pay for parking here as you do at some facilities. This review was easy to write due to all the positives. If you are in need of a good nursing home where you are assured your love one will be taken care check out the Oaks!!!👍😀"

"I enjoyed my stay in the rehab area. Everyone was helpful and really did a great job getting me back home! "

"I liked that the rooms at Grande Village Suites were very big, clean, and roomy. They have a full kitchen, a refrigerator, microwave, stove, and dishwasher. The price was good. My mom will be paying half of the price of what she's paying now. They take Medicaid, too. Jessica was the one who toured us around and she was awesome. They have a lot of activities like outings and happy hour once a week where they have food and drinks if they want. Then they go to a lot of different places such as museums and shopping. They also bingo, cards, and puzzles together. It just seemed the right fit."

"Dad was at Legacy Place - Twinsburg in the nursing care unit while he was doing rehab. The price of the unit was very nice. He was in a private unit, and we brought some of his furniture, and it worked out pretty well. The staff was very responsive. "

"My husband is currently in Heartland of Twinsburg. He had been there before, and they have a handful of nurses and aides that are fantastic, but the rest of them just sit around and do nothing. It is like any nursing home nowadays; they are so understaffed that the staff that they do have for the most part don’t really care. This time, he is basically there on ‘respite’ type scenario. He is bedridden and a very difficult patient because he doesn’t want to take his meds, he doesn’t want to do this, and he doesn’t want to do that. I am sure they did what they could at this point, and there were a couple of nurses on that floor that were fantastic in trying to get him to take his meds. So there isn’t a whole lot for them to do at this point. They need more qualified aides. They probably have 1 aide for 15 rooms or something like that. It is just understaffed and under qualified."

"My Brother was there. I had numbers to reach for any emergency I had. The rooms were kept up and security was 5STAR .. The administrator was loving and cared about her patients. Only due to my brother s health challenges did I move him. Ohhh boy do I miss the promptness in getting his needs met. No place is like home, but in selecting a place you try to get as close as possible. Working with people that understand your needs are important. I found that at Sunrise. Thank you Michelle…. Katherine"

"My father was here for 4 months and they provided excellent care. "

"My mother was at Villa St. Joseph, and I was very happy with them for the most part. The only problem I had was the rooms were somewhat hospital like and sterile. It's a rehab facility, so I can understand the hospital kind of quality to it. She's been there twice, and I was very happy with the activities they had. They had plenty of activities for people to get involved with. My mother got out and met people. They moved her around quite a bit, and they gave her physical therapy regularly. I didn't like the way the room looked, but I was happy with the care, it was good. The facility looked very nice, well kept up, clean, and well maintained. The value for money was very good."

"I have a lot of acquaintances and friends that are there at Greenwood and they like it. They take good care of their residents. The staff is very kind, good, and very nice. Then they also have a little bus that takes the residents over to the grocery shop and things like that. Cleanliness was very good, too. The room size was pretty generous."

"My uncle was in Jennings, it was nice but they were too high. They do rehab, the food was good and the staff was very nice. Every time I went, the staff was very accommodating to him, they were always coming in and checking on him. I could tell that he liked the care they gave. He was there for rehab, so he mainly did walking and moving his arms. There's a McDonald's, Wendy's, and Taco around the area."

"Hudson Elms is amazing. Dorina really out do herself. My moms transition from Assisted living to SKill. I can admit, I was very nervous about her care. Mom did not want o go anywhere, She wanted to stay here, her home. The staff on both sides are amazing. Mom received all her medication and the rehab is great. Mom was even able to have double portions, Mom loves to eat. Travis made the transition very inviting."
