About Amherst Meadows

from Oasis Senior Advisors

Amherst Meadows in Massillon, Ohio, offers assisted-living care that is structured around consistent, on-site clinical oversight. Residents who use oxygen, are younger than 60, or manage diabetes—whether by oral medication, injections, or a sliding-scale regimen—can be accommodated, and staff are trained to support individuals with moderate dementia. The community coordinates these medical needs within a single setting so that routine monitoring, medication administration, and prompt response to health changes are all handled without the need to leave the building.

Round-the-clock clinical staffing includes registered and licensed practical nurses, with an awake night shift and emergency pull cords in every apartment for immediate assistance. Doors are alarmed, background checks are standard, and security personnel are present 24 hours a day. Podiatry, audiology, and a dedicated therapy room are available on site. Residents who need full assistance with bathing, dressing, or toileting receive scheduled help, while those who only need some support with meals can count on staff oversight. Transfer support ranges from standby help to one-person lifts for wheelchair users and those with walkers.

Apartments include private bathrooms, independent climate controls, cable access, housekeeping, and scheduled laundry services; many rooms can be painted and decorated to personal taste, though not every unit offers every listed feature. Families are encouraged to confirm the specific features in the floor plan they choose.

Meals follow a set menu served in the main dining room, with snacks offered throughout the day and a private dining area available for special gatherings. The kitchen staff can provide gluten-free meals, modified textures such as purées or thickened liquids, and other physician-ordered diet adjustments to meet individual health requirements.

Residents have access to outdoor smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, a barber and beauty shop, exercise and movie rooms, community internet, landscaped gardens, and on-site religious services. Transportation options include scheduled medical shuttles, and the property is located near public transit for added convenience.

#3 in Massillon, OH

Residents and their families say:

This community is highly praised for its compassionate care and attentive, helpful staff. Many reviewers mentioned positive experiences with both the skilled nursing and assisted living areas, noting the excellent care provided by the nursing staff. The facility is consistently described as clean, with a welcoming and home-like atmosphere, making it a pleasant environment for residents and visitors alike. Activities offered for residents are appreciated, adding to the quality of life. The staff is often described as friendly, courteous, and genuinely caring about the residents, which is noticed and appreciated by family members and visitors.

On the downside, some reviews mention disorganization, particularly with one reviewer recounting an experience with room switches and lost belongings. Another common point, mentioned by more than one reviewer, involves a specific staff member whose bedside manner was found lacking, affecting the decision to choose the facility again. Despite occasional challenges with short-staffing, the community was generally viewed as doing a good job with the resources available, maintaining a positive atmosphere. Some concerns about food and supplies were mentioned, but these issues did not overshadow the largely positive feedback about this community’s care and environment.
