Personalized Care Plans

Every resident is unique, and so are their care needs. We work closely with families to create personalized care plans that address each resident’s health, cognitive function, and personal preferences. We continually reassess these plans, adapting them as necessary to provide the most beneficial and appropriate care.

We understand and focus on an individual’s capabilities, not what they have lost, to keep moving forward and making the most of every moment.

  • Enhance quality of life
  • Feel safe in a secure environment
  • Provide a higher sense of dignity
  • Discover creative expressions
  • Lessen anxiety
  • Rekindle social skills
  • Develop new interests
  • Increase their attention span and focus
  • Have a higher sense of usefulness
  • Enhance the ability to remain alert

We are proud to be among the first in Ohio to offer staff-certified, Montessori-based dementia care known for its devotion to socializing and creating meaningful activities for our residents. Our skilled specialists work in unison with residents, their family members, and physicians to customize and develop the best care plans.

Memory Care Enriching Activities

Understanding that engagement and stimulation play a vital role in memory care, we offer a variety of activities tailored to individual abilities and interests. From music and art therapy to creative expression discovery, life history exercises and physical fitness, our programs are designed to enhance cognitive functions, promote socialization, and spark joy in everyday moments.

Family Involvement

We believe in the power of connection. That’s why we encourage and facilitate regular visits and meaningful interaction between residents and their loved ones. Through family events, educational workshops, and open communication, we ensure you are always informed, involved, and reassured.
