National Church Residences Chillicothe sits on an 8-acre wooded campus off Route 50, close to I-35, with parks, churches, shopping, and entertainment nearby, and offers a mix of independent living, assisted living at The Heritage and Hopeton Village, memory care, skilled nursing at the Robert E. and Genevieve B. Schaefer Center, as well as respite care and hospice services, so residents can get the right support as their health needs change. Residents can pick from independent living apartments, which come in one- or two-bedroom options with balconies and washer and dryer hook-ups, or secure, fully-furnished apartments designed for around-the-clock care, with each living space set up for safety with walk-in showers, grab bars, pull-cords, and early and emergency response systems, all monitored by a 24-hour nursing staff.
Care plans at National Church Residences Chillicothe are personalized to help with daily needs like bathing, dressing, or medication management, and there's access to primary care, home health care, home care aides, therapy-physical, occupational, and speech-plus incontinence care and hospice if needed, so staff can provide different levels of support as residents age. The campus is fully accredited as a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC), so residents who start with independent living can stay in the community even if their health needs change, and they can count on the same team for consistent care.
Residents have lots of ways to stay active and connected, with amenities like indoor and outdoor common areas, a library, a fitness center, an activities room, and planned events, socials, and outings, and transportation is available when residents want to go off-site. There's a full schedule of social, fitness, educational, and devotional programs, and spiritual care is available onsite and offsite, including a chaplaincy service. Meals get served restaurant-style in a community dining room, and housekeeping, laundry, and linen services help keep things easy. Onsite there's a beauty and barber shop for haircuts and grooming, and the staff handles both daily check-ins and ongoing health needs.
The environment is designed for comfort and safety, making it easier for residents to make friends, participate in activities, and feel like they belong, and the staff is chosen for skill and kindness to make sure everyone's treated with respect. Adult day services and short-term respite care give family members breaks or help folks recover after illness or surgery, choosing daily, weekly, or monthly stays as needed. National Church Residences Chillicothe focuses on letting residents keep their freedom as long as possible, and supports them with care, activities, and services that meet both physical and emotional needs, all in a quiet, wooded spot where seniors can enjoy life and feel safe.
