Overview of Saint Luke Lutheran Home – North Canton

Thirty-one beds. All of them occupied. Saint Luke Lutheran Home in North Canton, Ohio runs at 100% capacity, which for a facility this size means demand is steady and placement happens fast. The average stay is 159 days, about five months, which puts it in that middle zone where some residents are moving through rehab and others are there for the longer haul. Both tracks exist here: short-term rehab, therapy services, and nursing care alongside respite stays.

On staffing, total nursing care runs 3 hours 41 minutes per resident per day. Nurse aides account for 1 hour 55 minutes of that. RNs and LPNs each clock 30 minutes.

The building is two-story, on Applegrove Street, in a neighborhood that scores 53 for walkability. Some things are reachable on foot. Most aren’t. State inspections have touched on medication management, care planning, and resident rights. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are all accepted.

At 31 beds, this place isn’t trying to be everything to everyone. It’s a small skilled nursing facility that keeps its beds full and its care model straightforward: rehabilitation if you need it, longer nursing support if that’s where things go, and coverage options that don’t box families into a single pathway.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Ohio

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.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 443 assisted living facilities in Ohio. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Ohio?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Ohio, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Ohio?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
