People living at St. Augustine Towers Assisted Living Residences get support with daily activities like showering, dressing, medication management, and meals. Although the facility offers lots of features and services, it's still centered around maintaining privacy, comfort, and independence, in what they say is a faith-based and family-oriented environment. Ancillary services like outpatient rehab, home health care, hospice, and pharmacy are available for extra fees. The building has a simple design focused on making things easy to get to, with clear spaces, indoor common areas, and family rooms with views of Lake Erie and the Cleveland skyline. The facility does provide tailored care for people with memory impairments, offering person-centered attention, but always tries to keep the approach down to earth, with respect for each resident's choices and independence.
