Western Reserve Masonic Community sits on 229 rolling acres in Medina, Ohio, where you can find a full range of senior care services all in one place, so folks don't have to move again if their needs change. The campus holds independent living villas and apartments for people who like to stay active and do things outdoors, while assisted living apartments give help with daily tasks like dressing, bathing, and taking medicines, featuring kitchens, washers and dryers, walk-in showers, and heating and air controls you can set yourself, and there's always someone around 24 hours a day if you need them. The place welcomes pets with a pet committee, so residents can bring their furry friends, and the whole setup doesn't require Masonic membership, a long contract, or any entrance fee-folks just give a 30-day notice if they want to move out.
People who need more care can move into skilled nursing apartments, where aids and nurses licensed by the State of Ohio stay on duty all day and night, and meals, laundry, medications, and housekeeping come included. The Health Care Center is both Medicare and Medicaid certified, and it's got modern equipment for therapy and rehabilitation like electrical stimulation and shortwave diathermy, as well as private, furnished rooms for both short-term rehab and long-term stays. Memory support comes with its own Pathways Memory Support Neighborhood, where the apartments have big windows, special paint colors to make things easy to see, pocket doors, sensor lighting, and walk-in showers, and a full-time Memory Care coordinator and education center helps families learn about care. Safety is a big deal, so there are emergency response systems, locked cabinets, and 24-hour security, along with scheduled transportation and daily housekeeping.
Residents eat three chef-prepared meals each day and can join many activities, from painting classes to fitness classes, or spend time at the new theater, beauty salon, and dining spaces made for gathering. There's high-speed internet, phones, and cable in each apartment, and the all-inclusive pricing means no hidden fees for help with things like medicine or daily care. Villas and apartments come in several floor plans, some with one to three bedrooms, and there's always scenic views of the land. Even things like outdoor fitness equipment by the lake and a maintenance-free lifestyle show up, so seniors can focus on whatever makes them happiest. The community works with Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance, and long-term care insurance, and counselors can help figure out costs. The main thing connecting it all is a focus on meeting each person's needs, with programs made for different levels of independence and health, while keeping folks close to home as they age.
