Bridgetown Nursing and Rehabilitation sits in Cheviot, Ohio, and offers many types of care under one roof, so folks who need skilled nursing, assisted living, independent living, memory care, or even adult day services can all get help in one place, and they've got both long-term and short-term stays covered with respite care and even a new program for ventilation and trach support in large private rooms. The Center accepts both Medicare and Medicaid, so people using either can come here, and there's hospice care for those nearing the end of life, plus home health care through a Medicare-certified option and non-medical home care for daily help at home, which gives families flexible support in tough times. Bridgetown has an above-average CMS rating, mostly because their health inspections go well, though their staffing is just slightly below average compared to some places, but everybody gets 24-hour supervision and quick responses with the all-day call system, making safety a central point.
People living at Bridgetown get help with everyday things like bathing, dressing, getting up, taking medicine, and even walking or being moved from bed to chair, so if someone's got heavy care needs, skilled nurses are there any hour, with registered nurses giving medicine, handling wound care, and managing IVs. The rooms are furnished, and most have private bathrooms, cable TV, kitchenettes, telephones, air conditioning, and high-speed Wi-Fi that covers the whole place, so residents can stay connected with family. Meals come from a professional chef, and the kitchen can handle special diets like allergies or diabetes, which makes planning simple for families, and meal service happens in the dining room with restaurant-style seating.
There are indoor and outdoor common areas where folks can gather, from a garden and walking paths to a theater and activity rooms, so there's always somewhere to go, and outside programs and outings help residents keep a little adventure in their days. Bridgetown has a fitness room and wellness center for people who like to stay active, and an on-site beauty salon, computer lab, and small library available to everyone, while activity staff and residents themselves organize social events, movie nights, devotional services, and games, so there's plenty to do, if people want company. For those with memory care needs, like dementia, staff use patience and understanding-there's continual training in dementia care, activities tailored to ability, and a secure environment to keep everyone safe, plus open communication with family councils for input and support.
Families who need help with transportation can have the center arrange it, including rides to doctors, and there's community parking for visitors, so coming and going isn't a challenge. Bridgetown is part of a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC), which means as residents' needs change, they don't have to change facilities, and they've got access to everything from rehabilitation-physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, joint replacement recovery, stroke recovery, ventilator weaning, post-cardiac care, to pain management and dialysis, all in the same place. The grounds are landscaped with secure courtyards and gardens, rooms can be private or semi-private, and there's a commitment to treating every resident, no matter their background or identity, with respect, cultural sensitivity, and attention to their physical, social, spiritual, and emotional needs. Seven reviews reflect a reputation for high-quality care and facilities, helped by multilingual staff-mainly English-speaking-and a resident and family council working to keep standards strong. The center's for-profit ownership recently changed hands in the last year, and local management stays active in day-to-day oversight.
