Saint Joseph Assisted Residence in Louisville, Ohio, sits on a large campus and has a 98-bed community offering many types of care, like independent living, assisted living, memory care, nursing care, and skilled nursing, and there are studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, with some private rooms offering their own kitchenettes so folks can feel at home. The community carries a 4-star rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services for its nursing services, making it the second highest rated among four communities in the city, and it's licensed by the state of Ohio, run by Catholic nuns, though people from any faith are welcome. You'll find a three-story building designed for easy access, more private living spaces or bedrooms-some fully furnished-with private bathrooms, cable TV, Wi-Fi, and air conditioning, and there's a cheerful building for skilled nursing and assisted living plus a separate place for independent living so everybody's care fits their needs.
There are amenities like a reading room, library, game and arts rooms, music and wellness rooms, outdoor walking paths, scenic gardens, and dedicated memory care neighborhoods on the property, and you might see people enjoying the fitness room, spa, sauna, or jacuzzi, or heading to the movie theater and activity rooms for movie nights, social events, or board games. Each day, three home-made meals are served and a professional chef handles regular dishes along with allergy-sensitive and diabetes-friendly options, and there's help if someone needs a special diet for things like high blood pressure or diabetes. The staff, including multilingual caregivers, assist with daily living needs such as bathing, dressing, hygiene, transfers, and medication management, while also handling laundry, move-in coordination, daily housekeeping, and transport for doctor's appointments, errands, and even faith-based services, and there's also a traveling stylist or hairdresser as needed.
The community offers regular nurse supervision with 24-hour call systems, emergency alert systems, and medication management, aiming to keep everyone safe and cared for, and there's also short-term rehab, respite care to help caregivers get a break, adult day services, and even home health care that's Medicare-certified. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy are part of the skilled services, and you'll see a big focus on wellness programs, recreation, and life enrichment with things like music and animal therapy, planned activities, fitness programs, spa visits, and scheduled outings or walks across the tree-shaded grounds. There are daily masses held, and the place is set up to support residents' physical, spiritual, and mental well-being, with staff encouraging friendly connections and meaningful engagement so folks can build friendships, keep busy, and enjoy a calm, homelike atmosphere with artistic touches, like wall paintings, throughout the building.
Saint Joseph Assisted Residence pays attention to people's health needs, offering individualized care plans, help with medication, personal support, and specific diet plans if needed, and also provides hospice and Alzheimer's care in secure, memory care settings.
