The Best Senior Living Communities in Ravenna, OH

"Independent Village Aurora Ohio is a great choice for our mother. She is cared for in a well-maintained facility. She has been there three years and enjoys her apartment. She has made friends and been involved in the activities. It is the right place, at the right time for her and definitely recommend."

"I put my mother into Hudson Grande Senior Living. So far, I'm very pleased. My mother has been attending activities, and the food looks delicious. I've actually eaten there twice, and it is very good. My mom is getting the help she needs. The rooms are fine. For activities, they take them to movies. They make sure they get out of their rooms, and they show an appropriate older movie for the residents. They also have guessing games where they have to finish the end of the name of a movie show. They all play along on that, and they seem to enjoy it. They also have a thing where you would toss these large donut-shaped things over, and they were clapping for each other. Everybody was enjoying it. They take them to happy hour that doesn't involve alcohol unless they want that. The staff are all very friendly. They call me if there's a question about something. They're still getting to know my mother medically."

"My grandmother has been at Danbury Tallmadge since January 2023. The memory care area is amazing. The residents have their own private rooms to make it more homey. There are appropriate activities for everyone to enjoy. The food is great and there are options to satisfy everyone. They put in a lot of time and thought to celebrate holidays and celebrations with decorations and menus. There has been some turnover but that is typical in the industry. The nurses and aides are wonderful. They have gotten to know my grandmother- her likes and dislikes and they are kind and compassionate. Our family is grateful for the enrichment Danbury has provided."

"Hudson Meadows Retirement Community is a very nice facility, up to date and clean. The other place I toured offers townhouses but this one has all apartments. Their amenities are very nice. They have a snack bar and the food is very good. I ate a meal there and it was also very nice. They have a nice theater, they have a pool which is nice, and an indoor pool. They have a nice snack bar where you go, get popcorn or anything that you want."

"The staff. Every one of the staff and wait people go out if their way for the residents. I love the activities and bus trips and being able to go out to eat especially being in a wheelchair. I love my apartment, it’s spacious and I love the storage on my patio. We have the best parties, Mother’s Day, picnics, and every holiday! I love it here"

"My church does ministry at Danbury in Cuyahoga Falls, OH. The residents seem very well cared for and they are always nice to us (there are 3 of us that go to Danbury in Cuyahoga Falls). I would give them a very high review. Lynn Bell Stow, OH"

"I toured Vitalia Senior Residences at Stow. The place was gorgeous and very nice. Everything seemed like it was going to be great. It was very costly. It was probably going to be very costly for my mom's condition. She doesn't need two-person assist yet, but she needs a lot of assistance. They couldn't give me a price or an estimate or anything like that until she was assessed, whereas others could give me guesstimates at least. I just couldn't get pricing, and I was in a hurry because I wanted to get Mom out of the environment she was in. However, everybody was friendly. I met directors from different departments, and they were all very friendly. It looked like they had good activities too. The cleanliness was good. The room was nice."

"My mother is currently a resident at Maplewood at Twinsburg. We are very pleased with her care! The staff members at Maplewood are always kind and helpful. It is truly a warm and caring community that feels like family. My mom loves all the daily activities and seems to rarely be alone in her room. She goes to exercise class every morning. She also enjoys doing craft projects. She attends history and current event discussions, cooking demonstrations, and lots of fun socials. She loves traveling on outings with Allie the activities director and a small group of friends. Allie has great ideas for new and interesting places to go. They have so much fun together! Allie is funny and helps everyone to enjoy exploring NE Ohio! The nurses are great also and give very personal attention to each resident. Nurse Tammy gently cared for my mother and kept me informed on a daily basis when my mother was ill recently with a virus. I felt confident that my mom was getting excellent care! Of course, Maplewood is furnished beautifully and is always kept quite clean. The food is delicious and nicely presented at meal time. I highly recommend Maplewood - it’s a wonderful community to call home. We are thankful that we found it for my mom…"

"The apartment’s are fresh and clean and also spacious. All the staff here are very friendly and helpful ! I miss my home but the residents here are becoming like family. I’m sure most anyone would be happy here ."

"We're living here. The appearance is very nice, and the layout is very convenient. The food is good, my wife is playing Scrabble right now, and I have played bingo. The facility has nice surroundings, the staff is very accommodating, and is very nice and helpful."

"My sister is going back to Cardinal Retirement Village. She had an apartment there, and that's where she was when she fell and broke her ankle. It was very nice, though. It seemed to be well-managed. The rooms were nice. She was only there for a little over a month before she broke her ankle. They only asked for a three-month contract lease, and after three months, it's month-to-month, so that's a nice feature for them. Not having somebody sign a long-term lease is a good idea. The residents were very friendly, and the staff were very friendly, too. I think my sister said they usually have choices of what you get for your meals. With her only being there for four weeks and the experiences she had, I think she said the meals were good. The apartments were clean. Originally, she had a studio apartment, which was just one room with a kitchen area and a bath. What they have available now is a one-bedroom apartment, which is much bigger than the studio. She didn't like the studio because it was kind of small. My sister participated in some activities. They had bingo and other activities, but I'm not sure what they were. They were giving her a discount on her room, so that was a plus. The value seemed to be the standard value, but when I compared it to other places, they were slightly lower."

"I toured Sunrise of Cuyahoga Falls. It was a little bit more money than the other place. The staff was great. They were very friendly. The only room they had left on my second visit seemed like in an area that could be congested at mealtimes and stuff like that. We just didn't have the feel for it as much as we did at the other place. They had some beautiful gardens that they took residents out to. There were different areas where there's like baby dolls and a crib and they can dress the babies. There were old-fashioned typewriters and old-fashioned telephones. They have vanities set up so that the women could put some jewelry on and those type of things. And I saw them reading to them, which was nice. I think it would be a nice place to recommend."

"My sister had been ill and her dementia had worsened. We had secured an apartment at Maplewood but feared that she was too weak to be transferred there. I called Maplewood’s Director of Admissions to tell her of the situation. She informed me that she would handle everything. Two days later, my sister was transferred to Maplewood Cuyahoga Falls. The nursing staff just enveloped her. Kate, Director of Nursing helped us coordinate her care and nurses, Hallie and Megan were attentive, kind and supportive, as were the many aides that were assigned to her overtime. She was up and dressed every day. She was taken to activities and meals. I (or another sister) was there daily. We saw the kindness and compassion that was shown to everyone who lived there by ALL the staff. That thoughtfulness was also shown to us. My sister was blessed to live there for the last three weeks of her life. Thanks to Maplewood, she had a dignified and peaceful death. Our family was treated with extreme kindness, care and love. If looking for a care facility, look no further. The facility itself is beautiful. The rooms are large and cheerful, the food delicious and staff knowledgeable and supportive. I am grateful for Maplewood and recommend this affordable option for all memory care individuals. Maplewood staff was a blessing to our family. May God bless them in their work."
