Overview of Sharonbrooke

If you’re looking for a place that feels like a natural extension of home, Sharonbrooke has been a staple in Newark’s Licking County since 1987. It’s pretty impressive that they were the first freestanding assisted living facility in Ohio. The community is located at 920 Sharon Valley Road and has a solid 109-bed capacity. Honestly, the location is a big plus; with a Walk Score of 79, you’re in a neighborhood where running errands on foot is actually doable, and Licking Memorial Hospital is just a short 1.8-mile drive away.

Clinical care here is led by the Director of Nursing, Elizabeth Shipman. The team covers both assisted living and memory care for those managing dementia, so there’s a range of support depending on what your family needs. The base monthly cost starts at $1,350, and since they accept the Ohio Assisted Living Waiver, it’s a realistic option if you’re navigating Medicaid. Every private room comes equipped with a kitchenette, a bathroom, and an emergency call system, which adds a necessary layer of security without feeling institutional.

Wellness feels integrated into the daily rhythm rather than just an afterthought. You have an on-staff doctor working directly with licensed nurses and aides, plus transportation services available for medical appointments or just getting out and about. On-site, you’ll find three restaurant-style meals served daily, a salon and barber shop, and quieter spaces like the chapel, garden, and courtyard. The social calendar stays pretty active, too, with things like live music, baking, and storytelling sessions.

Sharonbrooke has spent nearly four decades figuring out how to support Licking County families by creating a space that feels safe, active, and genuinely welcoming. Whether you need a bit of daily assistance or more specialized memory support, it’s a grounded, reliable place to consider for this next stage of life.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care 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.

Does Ohio Medicaid cover memory care?

Ohio Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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 memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 343 memory care communities in Ohio. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community 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 memory care communities 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.
