St Clare Commons sits on a 55-acre landscaped campus in Perrysburg, Ohio, right next to the St. John XXIII Catholic Community, where seniors can find many care options like Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, and Skilled Nursing, and there are retirement apartments, memory care suites, as well as short-term and long-term care available for those who need them. Folks get their own living space with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable TV, air conditioning, telephones, and Wi-Fi, so you get many comforts of home and the facility adds house cleaning and laundry, plus plenty of parking for visitors and residents. The common areas and amenities are easy to get to and include fitness and wellness rooms, walking paths, gardens, a library, an arts and activity room, a spa, a beautiful chapel with stained-glass windows and vaulted ceilings, and even a piano lounge, Starbucks coffee shop, movie theater, and business room, giving people space to relax, stay active, and socialize with friends.
Care plans are personalized to match what each resident needs, so if someone needs help with everyday things like bathing, dressing, taking medicine, or moving around, staff are on hand every day, and there's nursing support 12 to 16 hours daily along with a 24-hour call system. Seniors with memory problems like dementia or Alzheimer's have safe, secured areas and programs with music, structured activities, and support to keep them engaged and comfortable, and others who want to stay independent can enjoy fitness classes, educational programs, spiritual services with an on-site chaplain, and regular movie nights and other scheduled events on campus. Meals come from a community dining room or restaurant-style setting and are made by a professional chef, and anyone with allergies or diabetes gets food that fits their needs.
St Clare Commons values community and tries to keep things feeling warm, homely, and welcoming, and there's a focus on promoting independence while offering support people need, with housekeeping, transportation, hospice care, move-in help, spiritual guidance, and family support, along with options for short-term respite stays or long-term residence. As a Continuing Care Retirement Community, it helps people stay in the same place as their needs change, and with future plans for even more apartment homes, villas, a clubhouse, and pool, seniors looking to age in place can do it on a campus that promotes comfort and belonging, all while drawing on Franciscan values and a sense of service.
