Mark H. Kennedy Park

Mark H. Kennedy Park in Saint Clairsville, Ohio sits on 30 wooded acres and offers a peaceful, natural setting with a strong community feel, and the place gives independent living, assisted living, and memory care options, so there's support for active seniors and those who might need extra help with daily activities or memory care for Alzheimer's or dementia, and you'll find staff ready to help with things like dressing, bathing, taking medicine, or lining up a specialist if that's needed. Residents can choose from studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom apartments, or even two-bedroom cottages and houses with attached garages, and they all come with stoves, refrigerators with freezers, dishwashers, garbage disposals, washer and dryer units, and windows with sheers or mini-blinds, plus every apartment's got its own heat and air conditioning controls, and the buildings have smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The place allows pets, as long as they're non-aggressive breed dogs, cats, or birds, and there are garden areas for folks who like to spend time outside or do a little gardening, and you can take walks or ride bikes on the outdoor trails, or join group outings to museums, malls, or different events and festivals. Meals are prepared by chefs and meal planners, and while there are three evening meals served each week, there's also a casual dining area for other times, and housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance services come included so seniors don't have to worry about the chores. The facility's part of the Presbyterian Senior Living network and follows tobacco and smoke-free rules everywhere on campus, with scheduled transportation for medical appointments and shopping, and free parking for both residents and visitors. There's a library, lots of wellness and therapy services, plus chances for social engagement with activities like craft classes, holiday parties, exercise classes, intergenerational programs, and outings to shops and events, and residents can join or start their own clubs to stay involved. For those needing extra support, they offer help like medication management or home care, adult day care, hospice services, and there's memory care that's specially designed to prevent confusion or wandering. Staff receive training for senior care needs, and residents 55 and older make up the community, where apartments, cottages, and houses are offered for monthly rent, no big entrance fees needed. The community often hosts fundraisers, guest speakers, and picnics, and there are resources available for medical equipment, legal support, transportation, disaster help, and health information, and you'll see senior suites nearby at St. Clair Commons too if more care types are needed. There's a photo gallery to see what the community looks like, and people can schedule tours to get a sense of daily life there, and reviews say activities and friendliness get special attention, so seniors can feel supported while having their own space and being part of a welcoming, active community.
