Overview of McGregor Assisted Living

McGregor Assisted Living offers assisted living, independent living, nursing home and skilled nursing care, hospice care, and respite care in Cleveland, OH. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks, while independent living suits residents who want a private living arrangement without daily care. Nursing home and skilled nursing care provide nursing support, hospice care addresses end of life needs, and respite care provides a short term stay when a usual caregiver needs time away.

Care can change without a move. Having several care levels in one community may suit a resident whose needs change over time, while rehabilitation services support residents working to regain or maintain function. Suites include appliances and all utilities except phone and internet, so residents can plan for those household costs while arranging phone and internet separately.

A salon and spa, gardens, a patio, and walking paths give residents access to personal care services and outdoor areas. Restaurant style meals are served daily, and private spa bathing areas with assistance support residents who need help bathing. A Walk Score of 46 places the area in a car dependent setting, so most errands require a car or a ride; McGregor Assisted Living may be a good fit for someone seeking several care options in one community and who has transportation available for off site errands.
