In Ohio, Assisted Living Facilities are referred to as Residential Care Facilities. This is much different than just assisted living. It is more involved and the scope of care is widened. There are different licenses that an assisted living facility can have. They can choose to be just a basic care and personal needs type of facility.

This type of facility takes care of ADL’s for the resident and then any extra care may be contracted by the resident and is self-directed by the resident as well. There is medical care in the way of medication dispensing, but there isn’t much else. The licensee can also choose to provide all the services assisted living does and also include memory and Alzheimer’s care. When they apply for the license, they must state how they would like to operate their facility.

Cost and Payment Options for Assisted Living in Ohio

The statewide average cost of assisted living in the state of Ohio is above the national average at $4,278 per month. The national average is $278 per month lower at $4,000. This is a base-rate with no extra services other than basic care for senior care residents who are ambulatory. If the senior in your life does not require much care, it may be better to look into other senior living options in Ohio that do not offer much assistance with daily living. The cheapest assisted living facilities in Ohio are located in Springfield, Youngstown, Cleveland and Canton. They range from $479 to $1,185 below the average for the rest of the state.

The least affordable assisted living homes in Ohio can be located in Akron, Mansfield, Dayton, Cincinnati, Middletown and Wilmington, which are an additional $252 to $1,022 above the average for the state. This is not an inexpensive source for assisted living. Remember that these are the rates that do not reflect any more than basic personal care. Unlike retirement homes in Ohio, assisted living facilities do not include post stroke care or physical therapy. They do not include any sort of memory care or dementia care. This type of care can cost $1,000 - $1,500 more than the base rate. While planning, it pays to know both the menal and physical condition of the senior prior to moving them into an assisted living facility.

In Ohio, there is a Medicaid waiver simply called the Assisted Living Waiver Program. They will only cover costs for basic services at Ohio assisted living facilities, but not the cost of the room and board. It is always good when planning to see what assets you have that could be liquidated in order to pay for assisted living in Ohio. There may be retiree benefits and long-term-care insurance that could help as well.

Ohio Assisted Living vs Independent Living

Many families find it difficult to tell the difference between assisted living vs. independent living. These are part of the care options available to seniors in Ohio. Your choice should depend on the extent to which your aging loved one can manage daily activities without needing extra assistance or care. These daily activities may include personal hygiene, managing medications, preparing meals, bathing, dressing up, toileting, driving, and transportation. A senior in Ohio who has problems performing any of these activities should consider living in an assisted living facility.

Assisted Living Facilities

Seniors who experience challenges with activities of daily living such as the ones listed above are more suited for an Ohio assisted living facility where they have access to an independent lifestyle while receiving timely support for a range of activities that they cannot do themselves. Such care services are mostly tailored to the needs level of the resident seeking such care, allowing them to enjoy the peace of mind that comes with living a maintenance-free lifestyle in these facilities. They can leverage a facility’s calendar of events, medication management for residents as well as social gatherings.

Independent Living Facilities

Ohio independent living is similar to assisted living, but residents do not require assistance with daily living. Seniors living in independent facilities can perform a wide range of daily tasks themselves. These communities may provide help with most basic needs, such as meal plans for seniors who prefer to delegate such tasks and enjoy their retirement. However, independent living facilities in Ohio do not offer memory care services, unlike assisted living facilities in Ohio. In other words, these seniors can live independently and enjoy assistance when needed.

There are not as many amenities in an independent living facility compared to those provided in Ohio assisted living. This is because the resident needs minimal assistance and can get almost everything done themselves. More support is available and provided only on the request of the resident.

How to make the best choice

Ohio is one of the most senior-friendly states in America with a wide range of senior living options for the elderly. It is expected that senior care needs will be on the rise each year. So senior living communities need to brace up for the tasks and provide such care as required. This explains why there are various assisted living and independent living communities scattered in multiple cities and counties in Ohio. The similar nature of these two senior living care options makes it difficult for most families to make a choice. Here is how to do it:

To determine the suitable type of care for you or your loved one, it is vital to discuss each option and consider their needs. If a senior still enjoys good health and has excellent mobility, then independent living may be the best option for them.

However, if they need help to dress, shower, prepare meals and even walk around, or you feel they might need such assistance in the future, then they will be better off in one of the many assisted living facilities in Ohio.

Unit Requirements for Assisted Living in Ohio

In every assisted living facility in Ohio, there must be no more than 4 residents per senior care unit. The floor space is to be minimum 100 square feet per single occupancy and 80 square feet when 2 residents are sharing the unit. For old construction units, for every 8 residents there must be a shared toilet, sink and a bathing unit such as a tub or shower. There must be a separate bathroom and shower and bathing facility for males and females that are unshared. New construction assisted living facilities must have all shower, bathing and toileting in each senior care unit for private use only.
