National Church Residences Portage Trail Village sits at 45 Cathedral Ln in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, and serves older adults with a variety of living options and care services, so there are assisted living services for those needing help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, medication management, or getting to meals, and there are independent living apartments for those who can live mostly on their own but still want the ease of maintenance-free living and a good social community, and with 86 licensed beds and private apartments in both studio and one-bedroom layouts-some with full-size kitchens-folks have a bit of choice in where they stay. People can feel comfortable knowing there are home health aides when needed, and trained staff are on site 24/7 with a call system for emergencies, plus scheduled nursing coverage and utility costs covered including Wi-Fi and basic cable, which keeps things simple.
The village provides specialized care for memory loss, diabetes, and incontinence, and it offers both hospice care for end-of-life comfort and support, as well as skilled nursing for people who need more regular medical attention, all in a setting that's wheelchair accessible with features like handicap accessible apartments and resident-controlled heating and air. There's chaplaincy services available for spiritual support, and even programs for continuing care, meaning people may move between levels of care-like independent living, assisted living, memory care, or even nursing care-all on the same campus without needing to leave for extra help. Home health services can support someone in their own apartment, and there's even help with laundry, housekeeping, and trash removal, so daily chores don't have to be a worry, and the dining room serves three meals a day for those who don't want to cook.
Life here feels steady with community events, life enrichment programs, scheduled social activities, and outings that keep folks engaged, plus there's a library, fitness room, arts and crafts spaces, gardens, and pleasant outdoor common areas for when the weather's nice. Staff can help arrange transportation for doctor's visits and therapy appointments, and there are in-house therapy services for physical, emotional, or mental health needs. The place tries to help people feel like part of a steady neighborhood, with easy access to nearby spots like Summa Western Reserve Hospital and Walgreens pharmacy in case of medical needs.
Families often feel more at peace knowing their loved ones have long-term care, safety measures like emergency pendants and pull cords, and a variety of care services all in one place. The community accepts seniors across a range of incomes and connects folks to cost-saving programs such as Veterans Benefits or certain tax benefits if they qualify, though Medicare's accepted only if there's proper certification. Portage Trail Village is a licensed Residential Care Facility that works under the larger umbrella of Senior Housing Limited Partnership and offers planning resources to make senior care decisions a little clearer, all while delivering daily support and services that make life easier for aging adults.
