Staff are on-site 24/7. It’s worth noting that the location is very car-dependent, with a Walk Score of just 2; you will need a vehicle to get around. However, the facility itself is pet-friendly. Inside, you’ll find a library, salon, outdoor spaces, and a wellness center.

With 100 beds and continuous staffing, West Chester serves as a solid option in Butler County if you are looking for a place that can handle the transition from assisted living to specialized cognitive care under one roof.

Overview of Lochhaven

Lima Convalescent Home has operated in Allen County since 1958, and its campus at 1640 Allentown Road has grown considerably since then. Lochhaven is the assisted living wing of that campus, which also holds the Lima Convalescent Home skilled nursing facility, The Greens memory care program, and inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation, all on the same grounds. For families trying to plan ahead, the practical implication is that residents can move between care levels without changing facilities or addresses.

St. Rita’s Medical Center is about 1.06 miles out. The Walk Score of 24 puts the neighborhood in car-dependent range, with Lima city center 3.0 miles away.

The 61-bed Lochhaven building offers one- and two-bedroom apartments. Each unit includes an emergency medical call system. The main entrance has an intercom that lets residents screen visitors before unlocking the door; a low-tech but functional security measure. Wellness checks run every two hours around the clock.

Meals are served three times daily under a certified dietician’s supervision, and common areas include a living room with a fireplace, an activity center, a library, a general store, and a private dining room.

Lochhaven is a practical choice for Allen County families who want assisted living within a campus that has been operating since 1958 and where skilled nursing, memory care, and rehab are available without requiring a move to a different facility when care needs change.

Overview of Light of Hearts Villa

The campus was a girls’ high school before 1989. The Vincentian Sisters of Charity converted it into what is now Light of Hearts Villa, a 35-acre senior living property in Bedford, Ohio, Cuyahoga County. Historic gardens on the grounds, originally cultivated in 1928, are maintained through a nonprofit initiative the facility sponsors.

Operated by the Sisters of Charity Health System, Light of Hearts Villa provides assisted living, memory care, and respite care at 283 Union Street. Admission is open to residents 60 and older of any faith. The campus’s Catholic roots are visible: Pastoral Ministry delivers daily Mass, rosary services, and on-site clergy access as part of a named program.

The care structure runs to 91 beds and includes the Levels of Care program. Residents with dementia are served through Lumen Lane Memory Care, the facility’s dedicated program for all stages of the disease in a secure environment. Physical therapy is available on-site, and 24-hour nursing assistance is part of the standard residential package. Suite kitchenettes give residents some independence between meals.

Chef-prepared meals are served in the dining room. The activity center, beauty and barbershop, outdoor gardens, and walking paths fill out the campus’s lifestyle infrastructure. Activities & Life Enrichment organizes the social calendar.

The neighborhood earns a Walk Score of 75, putting most everyday errands within reach on foot. For families thinking through placement, Light of Hearts Villa offers established assisted living and dedicated memory care on a notably large campus with a clear mission identity.

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 368 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.
