Assisted Living, Independent Living & Memory Care · Columbus, OH

Overview of Claremont Retirement Village

Claremont Retirement Village delivers independent living, assisted living, and memory care to seniors in Columbus, Ohio. Independent living caters to residents seeking personal autonomy without daily physical support. Assisted living provides assistance for routine tasks and managing medication while maintaining a private living space. Memory care delivers a secured setting with continuous supervision tailored for individuals at risk of wandering. Combining these three tiers allows residents to transition into higher levels of support as health needs evolve.

Located in the Far Northwest neighborhood, this 57-bed community features private single-occupancy rooms and welcomes small pets. A walk score of 50 makes the surrounding area somewhat walkable for basic errands, though dedicated transportation services are provided for trips requiring a vehicle.

Daily living features restaurant-style dining for regular meals alongside an on-site salon and barbershop for personal grooming needs.

Families looking for adaptable senior living can settle into a single setting that balances personal privacy, daily convenience, and long-term care flexibility.
