Amherst Meadows Care Center has run 44 beds at 1610 First Street NE in Massillon, Ohio since 1991, operating in Stark County as a nursing home and residential care facility across nursing care, assisted living, memory care, hospice, palliative care, and respite care.
The named programs are where the clinical picture gets more specific. On-site psychiatric care and stroke recovery care are both active programs, and neither shows up consistently at comparable facilities of this size. Hospice and palliative care runs as an integrated track. Therapeutic recreation and nutrition services, including specialty dietary accommodations, are also confirmed program listings.
Private suites house residents. The campus carries an outdoor garden, lounges, a beauty salon, and religious services on-site. Admissions run around the clock, which extends options for families navigating hospital discharges on short or irregular notice.
Medicaid is accepted. The Walk Score is 28, which puts the neighborhood in somewhat-walkable territory, though most trips require a vehicle. The facility is 1.7 miles from Massillon’s city center.
Amherst Meadows is built for residents whose needs run deeper than standard residential nursing. Confirmed psychiatric support, stroke rehabilitation, and an integrated hospice and palliative track expand the clinical range well beyond what a 44-bed, Medicaid-covered facility in Stark County might otherwise suggest.
