Overview of O’neill Healthcare Lakewood

Owned by Kimberly Chuma, O’neill Healthcare Lakewood is a 54 bed nursing home on Bunts Road in the Lakewood area of Cleveland. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are all welcome, providing families with flexibility in covering short- and long-term care stays. A high occupancy rate and average stay length of about 70 days reflect its focus on post acute rehabilitation for patients transitioning from hospitals.

The home’s clinical emphasis is evident from its programming. Two named rehabilitation tracks, cardiac and stroke recovery, are supported by broader rehabilitation services and on-site dialysis. This specialty setup makes it a grounded choice for people healing from a cardiac or neurological event who would benefit from focused therapy while still under skilled nursing supervision. The overall nursing complement averages roughly 3 hours 14 minutes of care per resident day. That includes about 29 minutes with a registered nurse, about 2 hours with a nurse aide, and roughly 1 hour 8 minutes with an LPN or LVN, so occupants have consistent hands-on support throughout the day. The facility’s location scores 86 on walkability, meaning the surrounding neighborhood is accessible to visitors and well-connected to nearby services and transit. That high score is beneficial for families planning to visit regularly and wanting to walk the area or access nearby shops and restaurants.

Overview of Village of the Falls

Village of the Falls is a 32-bed skilled nursing community directed by administrator Marie Grosh and Director of Nursing Erin Jones. The facility focuses primarily on short-term post-acute rehabilitation and temporary respite care, with an admission base driven by 72% private-pay and 20% Medicare clients. Residents record a brief 40-day average length of stay, and the property maintains an 82% occupancy rate that matches local market baselines. Financial tracking shows some operational stress, including a 2023 operating loss of $621 thousand, though the provider keeps payroll steady at 53% of overall revenue.

State health archives reveal a highly consistent regulatory history, noting only one citation over the past six years. The home’s most recent standard evaluation turned up four moderate administrative deficiencies involving care planning, resident rights, and nutrition setup, all of which the operator has corrected. No federal financial penalties or payment denials appear on the building’s three-year history.

Daily care lines show that total nursing hours average 3 hours and 30 minutes per resident each day, while this sits slightly below the Ohio baseline, registered nurse hours run 26% above the state average, and dedicated physical therapy coverage tracks 133% ahead of the state norm. Clinical files reflect a zero percent rate for long-stay major fall injuries and low resident depression marks, though permanent resident tracking indicates below-average scores for preserving basic functional mobility.

Interested individuals researching local short-term physical therapy or brief respite stays can analyze these government tracking dossiers to assess the provider’s clinical performance. Since the public data points to above-average daily registered nurse hours, strong physical therapy resources, and a very low historical citation count alongside minor care planning corrections and steady occupancy, the paperwork aligns with a highly focused rehabilitation environment.

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 428 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.
