Bethany Place

Bethany Place sits at 916 North Street in Fremont, Ohio, not far from the Sandusky County YMCA and the county fairgrounds, and serves as both a residential care home and a retirement community for seniors 55 and up, with a state license #2656R making sure everything follows health and safety rules, and what you'll find there is a pretty quiet place that offers assisted living, memory care, nursing home support, respite care, independent living, and even home care, all inside a community that keeps a resident population of about 12 in private and semi-private units or, if you need more room or want to be in an apartment-style setup, there are 46 apartments for seniors, all with emergency alert systems, telephones, cable or satellite TV, and internet access, so people stay connected and feel safe. Bethany Place is straightforward about helping with bathing, dressing, moving around, and handling medications, plus they coordinate with healthcare providers if your needs change, and provide 24-hour supervision, with non-ambulatory care for folks who need help moving, and the staff stays on top of housekeeping, bathroom cleaning, and even offers laundry and dry cleaning. Food's a daily part of life here, with chef-prepared meals reviewed by dietitians for special diets, like diabetes or allergies, and all-day dining means residents aren't limited to set hours, though there's a dining room for scheduled group meals too, and a snack shop for smaller bites during the day. There's a real effort to keep people active and connected, with scheduled activities such as arts and crafts, bingo, movies in the movie room, card games, and larger community-sponsored events, so isolation isn't as big of a worry, and the library's full, the walking paths and garden are landscaped, cats and dogs are welcome if you have one, and there's on-site parking for people who still drive or have family stop in. There's help with getting to medical appointments and other outings-transportation's arranged if you need it. If you need specialized care, like for Alzheimer's or Parkinson's, memory care and rehab services are available, and you'll also find amenities you'd expect, like a pharmacy, massage services, on-site physical therapy, a games room, and even computer access if you want to get online. Each room comes furnished, but the community feels more like a small group home at the core, with the Board and Care Home setup being ideal for those looking for an extra level of attention, plus there's 24-hour security, wheelchair-access bathrooms, housekeeping, bathroom cleaning, and all utilities included except for monthly phone charges. Tours are available if you or your family want to stop by, and it's an inviting place that tries to make life steady and reliable for seniors in Fremont, with both community events and quiet spaces in landscaped gardens.
