Trinity Community at Beavercreek offers independent living, assisted living, memory care, nursing home and skilled nursing care in Beavercreek, OH.

Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, and nursing home or skilled nursing care provides licensed nursing on site around the clock.

The community’s range of care levels can suit a resident whose needs grow over time because moving to another level does not require leaving the community.

Payment options are Medicare, Medicaid and private pay; Medicare applies to short-term skilled care after a hospital stay, while Medicaid may help when savings do not cover a longer stay.

Overview of Shurmer Place at Altenheim

If you are looking for memory care in Strongsville, Shurmer Place at 18821 Shurmer Road is worth a close look. It’s an 85-bed community built specifically for memory support as part of the larger Altenheim campus. Being on that campus is a huge plus because residents can easily access extra services like rehab, skilled nursing, and home care without needing to travel off-site. While the surrounding area isn’t very walkable, the campus itself is designed to be a self-contained community.

The program focuses on individuals with mild to moderate cognitive impairment. Inside, you’ll find 38 private suites divided into six “neighborhoods.” Each one centers on a themed living room with direct access to either a sunroom or a porch. The suites are thoughtful, including a private bathroom with a walk-in shower and a kitchenette. You can tell they prioritized the architecture here; using Planetree design principles, they’ve carefully chosen the lighting, layout, and colors specifically to help with memory support, rather than just forcing a standard apartment floor plan to fit.

The care here is adaptive. It’s not a “one-size-fits-all” model; plans change as the resident’s needs evolve. They offer standard support like regular cognitive assessments and support groups for families, but they also get creative with music and memory activities. A standout for me is the Ageless Grace program, where a director leads 21 chair-based exercises to help with mobility, balance, and coordination.

Beyond the memory-specific care, the campus offers respite stays, outpatient therapy, and even Meals on Wheels. With enclosed courtyards, a secure perimeter, and home-style dining areas, it feels like a real neighborhood. If you are a family member looking for a space that was actually built for memory care and not just renovated into it, Shurmer Place deserves your attention.

Overview of StoryPoint Powell

StoryPoint Powell is a senior living community on Sawmill Parkway in Powell, Ohio, offering independent living, assisted living, memory care, and enhanced living under one roof. That full range matters for families thinking past the immediate decision, because a resident whose needs change over time can often move to a different level of support without leaving the building or the staff they know. The community has been operating for about five years and sits roughly a mile from the center of Powell.

The building is three stories, with studio, one bedroom, and two bedroom apartments available. Floor plans are open concept, and the community is set up for maintenance free living, with housekeeping handled so residents are not managing upkeep on their own. Pets are welcome, which is often a deciding factor for someone reluctant to give up a longtime companion animal.

Daily life is built around shared spaces rather than apartments alone. There is a salon and barbershop on site, a library, a media center for movies, and a café that tends to become the informal gathering spot in communities like this one. Meals are chef prepared, and the community runs fitness and recreation programming along with transportation services for appointments, errands, and outings.

The neighborhood scores 63 out of 100 for walkability, meaning some errands can be handled on foot while most trips will involve a short drive. For visiting family, the Sawmill Parkway corridor is an easy stretch to reach, with shopping, dining, and medical offices clustered nearby. Ms. Sofia Ruiz-Sierra serves as marketing coordinator and is a useful first point of contact for questions about apartments and availability.

For a family weighing several communities in the northern Columbus suburbs, StoryPoint Powell’s combination of multiple care levels, apartment style housing, and a pet friendly policy gives it a practical profile worth a closer look.

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.
