Overview of McGregor Assisted Living

McGregor Assisted Living is in Cleveland, Ohio, in a neighborhood that scores 46 for walkability, which is enough for occasional on-foot errands, but most outings will depend on transportation. The community spans independent living, assisted living, memory care, and short-term and outpatient rehabilitation, which gives it a broader care range than facilities that operate at a single level. Phyllis Tabbs, RN, serves as Administrator of the Gardens at McGregor.

Around-the-clock nursing staff is on-site, with an emergency call system in each suite and respite care available. Three restaurant-style meals come with the daily schedule. Suites include appliances, all utilities except phone and internet, basic cable, and weekly housekeeping and laundry. The building’s common areas include gardens, a patio with walking paths, a private spa bathing area, a multi-purpose room with kitchen, and conversation areas spread throughout.

The continuum here is the practical draw: residents who move in for independent living or assisted living don’t face a facility transfer if memory care or short-term rehab becomes necessary later. For Cleveland families trying to plan ahead, that range of care under one roof is worth factoring into the decision.

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Ohio?

Assisted living in Ohio supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Ohio?

Assisted living in Ohio is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Ohio Medicaid cover assisted living?

Ohio Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Ohio) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.
