6 Best Independent Living Communities in Savannah, OH

It is a really nice place, but it is incredibly expensive, but that's probably in general to most nursing facilities for mom's level of care. She could only afford 2 1/2 months before her finances were gone and we had to sign up for Medicaid. People did genuinely look out for her. It was a very good experience. It is a fantastic location! I appreciate the security, can't enter the building unless someone lets you in - I think this is best. My mom expected skilled nursing type engagement, however she was there as assisted living at highest level.

While looking into several different facilities we chose our top 2 favorites for my love one to see. She chose this community because of their homey atmosphere. Most of the places that we saw had that “institutional” feeling. She likes the feel of this facility, she liked the way it looked, it was decorated nicely, and the staff was also welcoming. The lady who runs the place during the day is very helpful and nice. It’s also interesting how the place is laid out. There are two main hallways that go back and every so often there is an open area with sofas and book shelves. Then the rooms would go off that area. It’s like when the residents walk out of their rooms they walk into their living room. The residents can sit out there in these areas, read, and talk with one another. It is a really nice place and my love one seems to enjoy it here.

My mother has lived at The Waterford for 2 1/2 years and we could not be more pleased. When it became apparent that it was time to move Mom from her home of 50+ years making the decision on an assisted living was one of the most difficult of our lives. The staff of The Waterford made everything about this transition so smooth and pleasant for Mom and us kids. Questions and concerns are addressed and resolved promptly and professionally. I truly see every day that the staff care for the residents as if caring for their own family.
