Gates Mills Club Senior Living has served Mayfield Heights for over 40 years, and the community feels much like a small family, with a friendly atmosphere and staff who are always onsite, ready to help day or night. The place offers both independent living and assisted living, and as a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC), residents can find nursing, memory care, and even hospice support if health needs change over time, so folks don't have to uproot and move somewhere else when care needs increase. Apartment suites at Gates Mills Club come in spacious one and two-bedroom layouts with full kitchens, walk-out balconies on the upper floors, individual climate controls, and options that are handicap accessible, and yes, small pets under 20 pounds are welcome too, which makes it feel more like home for many. Safety measures such as emergency pendants, bathroom pull cords, wide doors and hallways, and updated features help everyone feel secure, and there's parking for both residents and their guests.
Residents here get two chef-prepared meals a day, and the kitchen's able to handle special diets, so folks with particular needs don't have to worry. With restaurant-style dining and weekly housekeeping, linen service, and all utilities included except phone and cable, the day-to-day things are handled, including laundry. The community encourages folks to get out and be social, with a full activity calendar that covers art therapy, crafts, music, dance, fitness classes, movies, spiritual programs, educational classes, and plenty of outings to local spots and restaurants, plus you see scheduled trips happen often and there's a full-time activities director making sure there's always something going on. There are lots of shared spaces to use, like a fitness center, chapel, game room, library, cinema, computer room, arts and crafts center, lounge areas, and outdoor patios, and for folks who value their faith, chaplain services are there too.
Medical support is available, including nurse staff and doctor on call, podiatry and dentist visits, medication management, in-home care services for bathing, dressing, reminders, and regular checks. There's a beauty and barber shop on site, physical therapy options, and a network of homecare providers makes sure more support can be arranged if it's needed. Residents can use scheduled complimentary transportation for errands, doctor visits, and group outings, with parking for personal vehicles too, and the community sticks to a no-smoking policy indoors for everyone's comfort. Gates Mills Club is part of the Ohio Assisted Living Association, so everything stays up to the right standards and codes. The atmosphere's close-knit and supportive, with programs aimed at making sure everyone has chances to stay active, socialize, and enjoy their days in ways that meet physical, spiritual, social, emotional, and intellectual needs. All in all, Gates Mills Club Senior Living focuses on comfort, safety, and offering enough help so residents can keep as much independence as possible, while still having the option for more care when that's needed.
