Lorain Estates Senior Living provides three levels of residential care—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care—within the same community, allowing residents to transition without relocating. The Memory Care program supports individuals who wander during the day or night and those who remain awake overnight, and the staff is trained to manage advanced dementia conditions. Clinical support extends to wound care, oxygen management, special diets, and several diabetes protocols, including oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale insulin.
Care delivery is reinforced by a licensed nurse on site, an on-call nurse around the clock, and awake night-shift staff. Background-screened team members respond to pull cords and personal emergency response systems, and exterior doors are alarmed for added security. A visiting podiatrist handles routine foot care, while daily living assistance covers full help with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Mobility needs are met through standby or supervised walking, walker and wheelchair support, and one- or two-person transfers, ensuring residents receive the right level of physical assistance.
Apartments offer a selection of practical features such as private bathrooms, kitchenettes, individual climate controls, cable connections, and the option to paint or decorate. Not all accommodations include every feature, so it is best to confirm specific room details during a tour.
Dining is handled through an on-order meal system that lets residents choose what they want, when they want it. Snacks are available throughout the day, and staff can modify textures and portion sizes or tailor menus to meet prescribed diet plans.
Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, a wellness center, communal gardens, and scheduled religious services. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Routine housekeeping, laundry, medication management, and transportation services are provided, and the property is close to public transit for added convenience.
