Episcopal Retirement Services Inc, part of Episcopal Retirement Homes Inc, has cared for older adults since 1951 and operates senior living communities in Cincinnati, eastern Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky. They run places like Deupree House, Marjorie P. Lee, Episcopal Church Home, and Affordable Living by ERS, where people aged 55 and older can find different levels of housing such as independent living, assisted living, memory care, long-term care, short-term rehab, nursing services, and senior apartments, and they also help with home care and meals through Deupree Meals On Wheels, Living Well Senior Solutions, and the Parish Health Ministry. The organization focuses on making life easier for seniors, offering nutritious meals planned by chefs, organized social events, games, movie nights, thousands of bus trips each year, and programs like Swipe 'N' Dine and individualized wellness plans that encourage health, independence, and engagement.
They've won awards for care, friendliness, best activities, and quality of life, and have a special focus on inclusion for those with Alzheimer's or dementia, running a Center for Memory Support & Inclusion and bringing memory care programs like SAIDO Learning®. They serve people of all incomes and make it a point to include those with limited means, people with disabilities, and veterans, offering rent-subsidized housing, financial help, and veteran benefit guidance such as VA Aid and Attendance for long-term care. Their aides offer companionship and non-medical care for folks living at home. The organization supports affordable housing communities, manages and develops new affordable senior housing, and raises funds to make living options possible for more people. They pay attention to faith and overall well-being, and they want seniors to feel safe, comfortable, and connected.
ERS runs over 31 facilities, each with different floor plans, virtual tours, and services designed to meet changing needs, whether someone wants to stay active or needs more support with daily life. Residents can order custom clothing, get items from the community store, and have lifestyle products delivered. Their staff is trained, and activities keep everyone engaged in a welcoming environment. The organization takes a stand on inclusion, challenging unfairness, and works to build communities where older adults can thrive emotionally, socially, and physically, always keeping their mission of improving lives, offering meaningful activities, and providing supportive community-based and in-home care in mind.
