Questions families ask

What is the difference between assisted living and memory care?

Memory care is secured, dementia-specific assisted living with higher staffing ratios, specialized training, and controlled exits. In Ohio, memory care carries a specific state certification only for communities serving Assisted Living Waiver residents -- not a universal requirement for every private-pay unit.

Should we choose in-home care or assisted living for my parent?

It depends heavily on weekly hours needed. Home care tends to be more cost-effective under roughly 30-40 hours a week; beyond that, and especially at near-continuous supervision levels, a licensed community's flat monthly rate usually becomes the better value using Ohio's published cost medians.

What is the difference between a CCRC and a standalone assisted living community?

A Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC or Life Plan Community) combines independent living, assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing on one campus, usually for an entry fee plus monthly rent. A standalone community offers one level of care, typically without a large entry fee.
