Venetian Gardens sits in Loveland, OH, and has 99 certified beds, though on an average day you'll find about 85 residents living there, and since Foundations Health Solutions took over management in January 2019, the facility's kept a steady focus on offering different levels of care, like independent living for those who want a relaxed, social lifestyle without worrying about chores, assisted living for folks needing help with bathing, dressing, and taking medicine, memory care in a secure dementia unit that helps prevent wandering and reduce confusion for people with Alzheimer's and dementia, plus skilled nursing around the clock. People living here can get physical, occupational, and speech therapies, and there's a big therapy room for those appointments, with a psychiatrist on staff for those who need it. The place also offers IV therapies and deals with more complex care needs like hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, wound care, and ostomy care, along with hospice and respite care for those needing support during difficult times, and incontinence care for those who require it.
Nurses care for residents about 3.56 hours each day on average, though the nurse turnover rate's a little high at 44%. Venetian Gardens has had 4 deficiencies reported in inspections, including one related to accident hazards and supervision, another for not quickly reporting suspected abuse or neglect, and one about not giving enough notice before transfers or discharges. The facility's recognized by many for keeping the place clean and the staff friendly, and folks seem to enjoy the food, activities, and value for the cost, even though things aren't perfect. There's a snack bar for the residents to enjoy between meals and activities. Home care services are also offered, with trained aides providing companionship and help for seniors who still live at home.
Venetian Gardens remains a place where residents get care based on their own needs, starting with individual assessments and personal care plans, and the community tries to keep everyone living with dignity and as much choice as possible. The amenities and activities aim to help people stay well, connect with others, and feel comfortable, and while it's not without its shortcomings, the facility does have a steady team trying to do right by residents looking for nursing and rehabilitation services in the Loveland area.
