Abbey-Assisted Living sits in Mentor, Ohio, close to Cleveland and surrounded by natural places like Mentor Marsh and Headlands Beach State Park, so residents can get outside for walks, bird watching, and fresh air pretty easily, and folks can also visit nearby shopping, restaurants, and doctors whenever they need. This facility has space for up to sixteen people, which keeps things quiet and encourages friendships among everyone living there, and the building, built back in 1920, gives off an old-fashioned and welcoming feeling that's nice for folks who want something homey. The community mainly offers assisted living, which works well for folks who want to keep their independence but need some help with daily chores like bathing, medication, or eating, and caregivers handle tasks with a one to five staff-to-resident ratio, making sure everyone gets noticed and cared for. They help with memory care for those dealing with Alzheimer's, plus there's support for wound care, incontinence, and all kinds of personal needs. For medical issues, they've got a doctor on call, a visiting nurse, and other therapists like podiatrists and dentists, and there's on-site home health care and hospice care including Medicare-certified services. Emergency needs are covered with trained practitioners and registered nurses on-site around the clock, and adults as young as 40 can live here if they need this kind of help.
Meals are included, served three times a day with a focus on nutrition and quality, and dining has been recognized for being quite good, while residents have the freedom to decorate and arrange rooms how they like, which adds comfort and lets everyone put their own touch on things. Both men and women aged 40 or older can apply, and living units have step-free showers and enough space for wheelchairs or walkers to make moving around easier, plus air conditioning and heating are built in so everyone can stay safe and comfortable, whether it's hot or cold out. Pets can live here, indoor and outdoor common areas are accessible, and parking's set aside for folks and their visitors. Folks have access to activities, both in the building and out, and there's free cable TV, wireless internet, and even an on-site beautician, so there's no need to go far for a haircut or a bit of pampering. Different care arrangements are possible, from temporary respite care, which gives family caregivers a break, to long-term residential support, or adult day services.
There's a smoke-free policy in all inside spaces, which keeps the air clean for everyone. Residents often join in devotional activities, wellness events, or recreational outings in the community, so days can be both busy and fun, but quiet times are easy to find too, thanks to the smaller size. For those looking for peace and help, but not a busy or crowded environment, Abbey-Assisted Living lets folks keep some independence while always knowing support is close by. Prices haven't been shared publicly, but local averages usually run between $5,135 and $5,453 per month depending on the services needed.
