Kauhale Centerville is a senior living community close to downtown Centerville, serving Dayton, Kettering, Bellbrook, and nearby areas, and this place's built for adults who have Alzheimer's or other kinds of memory loss, though there's a mix of services for different needs, including independent and assisted living, skilled nursing, respite care, and long-term care all on one campus. Folks live in studio or shared rooms-some have en-suite bathrooms, and there are semi-private apartments, with choices for staying short-term, for example, vacation or respite stays, or settling in more permanently. The building's just one level, so moving around is easier, and there's plenty of natural light with views to enjoy outside, walking paths, gardens with secured areas, patios, and a courtyard for residents who like some time in the fresh air. There are amenities like a spa, salon services, and premium shared spaces like common rooms, kitchens, entertainment and performance venues, chapel areas, and conference spaces. Meals come from a chef, with dietitian oversight, different meal plans, vegetarian and special diet options, and both fine dining and a casual bistro, with options for room service, meal delivery, or eating with others.
Kauhale Centerville's focus is on memory care, with a signature program called In the Moment® and every caregiver uses the "ASAP" approach-Awakening the Subconscious of the Alzheimer's Patient-through purposeful daily engagement, planned activities, therapies, and spiritual support that aim to help residents keep a sense of self and independence for as long as possible. There's daily life enrichment with a schedule full of social and exercise programs like chair fitness, dance fitness, garden clubs, outings, creative minds classes, music concerts, Laughter Yoga, and more, plus religious and spiritual support for those who want it. The staff, trained in many areas including aging, behavior, chronic health conditions, and memory care, stays on the property 24 hours a day, offering help with medicine, bathing, dressing, feeding, grooming, transfers, mobility, and all activities of daily living, with an emergency call system and security features for peace of mind.
Health services here include diabetic care, immunizations, disease management, medication reminders, and a hospice option, plus lots of therapy choices-massage, occupational, physical, speech-and support groups, with designated rooms for therapies. Scheduled transportation helps with appointments or errands, and laundry, cleaning, and home maintenance are included, making it easier to just focus on living. Pets and occasional pet visits are welcome, and the place has amenities for pets, too.
Residents who want independence can join others in the community's independent living, where they have help available but can manage most things themselves, living in a social, hassle-free environment. There are also assisted living and skilled nursing for folks who need more support, personal care, or medical oversight.
