Brookdale Bath sits at 101 N Cleveland Massillon Rd in Akron, Ohio, right at the top of the hill by Montrose, and has a quiet, private feel to it with 80 licensed beds for seniors who need long-term care. The community is a licensed Residential Care Facility managed directly by Brookdale Bath, offering many care options like assisted living, memory care for those living with Alzheimer's or dementia, independent living, skilled nursing, continuing care, and even adult day care and home health services, so people have choices if they need more or less support. Residents get daily help with things like bathing, dressing, moving around, and taking their medicine, and there's always a staff member on-site, day or night, including a nurse available 24/7 for any medical needs or emergencies, plus regular wellness visits, immunizations, and support for folks with conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure.
Memory care residents have safety and gentle routines, and everyone can join in social, educational, and entertainment activities meant to make life more pleasant and meaningful, with organized events, a community calendar, and spaces like a media room, computer area, and library. There's a fitness center, therapy rooms, salon, and a hot tub spa, which helps keep people active and relaxed, and inside and out there are spaces for gathering, walking, or just sitting-like a wraparound porch, sunroom, landscaped gardens, and fireside seating. Meals come in an elegant dining room with chef-prepared dishes, plus there's a private dining space, a bistro open all day, and help with special diets or meal needs.
Suites come in various layouts, both private and shared, with private bathrooms, emergency call systems, wall-to-wall carpet, kitchenettes, cable TV, Wi-Fi, and optional furniture. The community is pet-friendly, too. Residents can attend religious services, visit the on-site beautician, and use on-site and offsite transportation for shopping or medical appointments. The place keeps safety in mind, with security systems, emergency response, and good lighting, and care plans get personalized for each person, sometimes coordinated by a registered nurse as part of the Brookdale HealthPlus® Community service. Amenities also include elevators, a courtyard, residents' lounges, and parking options. The facility offers respite care and hospice, and when it comes to daily life, the focus is on supporting people to do as much for themselves as possible, helping them feel independent while making sure they're always looked after and comfortable. Residents are known for being kind and supportive, and the staff is professional and friendly, always ready to offer help, answer questions, or just make sure everyone feels safe and at home.
