Spring Hills Middletown sits just outside of Middletown, Ohio, in Franklin, near the Great Miami River and close to cultural spots like the Middletown Arts Center and local theaters, and is actually part of the Spring Hills Senior Communities network, which runs several senior care places, and you'll find this one offers a mix of assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and even home care services through partners like Careview Corporation and Hospice Middletown Inc.-and people appreciate that the team handles a wide range of needs, whether folks want to keep up a social, independent lifestyle or they're living with Alzheimer's, dementia, or medical issues that require close monitoring. The property's set up to keep seniors safe, with secured buildings, a special memory care unit for those prone to wandering, staff on site 24/7, nurses around the clock, and alarm systems with bracelets for anyone who might want to go exploring. The community's purpose-built for those needing memory care-there's an entire building for it-and the staff get to know the residents, since there's usually low turnover, and they're ready to help with any activities of daily living like bathing, dressing, transfers, or even using mechanical lifts for folks who need more support. Diabetes care, medication management, and behavioral care are all handled here.
Food is taken seriously, featuring restaurant-style dining with a chef, home-cooked meals from natural ingredients, vegan and allergy-friendly options, and even private dining rooms for family gatherings or birthdays. Residents can get room service, too, and there's a choice of studio and two-bedroom layouts, furnished rooms with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable TV, Wi-Fi, phone, and air conditioning, and the entire place is wheelchair accessible, including the showers. Beauty salon services, laundry, housekeeping, and special move-in help are also part of the day. Folks get transportation for errands, medical visits, or fun outings to check out local attractions or cultural sites, and the parking lot's a nice bonus. There's a country cottage atmosphere, with a circle drive, a courtyard, gardens, a gazebo, game and movie rooms, a spa/wellness room, library, fitness room, piano lounge, and walking paths for anyone who likes to get outside.
The community offers a big mix of activities-everything from art, cooking, yoga, stretching, and Tai Chi classes, to karaoke, computer lessons, trivia, Wii bowling, pet visits, and intergenerational programs, and they run outings and trips along with educational talks, game nights, and live entertainment, so there's always something going on to help folks stay active, meet others, and keep their minds busy. The program called "Signature Touches" is unique, bringing in things like creative writing and master gardening for anyone interested, and family members can use technology to check in on what residents are up to each day. There's a nurse on duty all the time, devotional services on site, and strong focus on both physical and emotional health, so staff keep an eye on safety and well-being, meeting Ohio Department of Health standards, using an emergency call system, and-people tend to mention this in reviews-they've had a top "deficiency free" rating for five years straight. The memory care studio averages about $6,250 per month, and they accept residents with a variety of needs, including those at risk for wandering, and can help with incontinence if someone can manage it. The facility has 107 beds in total, offers daily communal activities, and lets everyone access outdoor community spaces. Residents can stay as long as their needs change, moving from assisted living to higher levels of care without leaving the community they know, giving some peace of mind if someone's worrying about the future.
