Recent reviews of Independent Living in Shaker Heights, OH
Vitalia Senior Residences of Montrose in Copley, OH
4.9

The food is exceptional and the kitchen staff are accommodating and nice. The amenities that Vitalia offers are beyond any other facility that I toured. The Forenight infared camara in the residents rooms have alerted the staff immediately when my mother has fallen. It's been a game changer and so reassuring for our family. Sometimes the communication/questions gets lost and we don't get answers. That would be the only constructive criticism I would have with Vitalia. I'm sure that happens with most places though. The overall facility is very clean, inviting, beautifully decorated and welcoming. I feel that they could do I better job in my mom's room with cleaning. Even though my mom still refuses to participate in the activities, there are wonderful opportunities for her when she does. The nursing staff is exceptional. The head nurse is approachable and knowledgeable. The floor nurses are kind, compassionate and have attended to my mother's needs. Overall we are thrilled with our decision to place our mom in Vitalia.
