Altenheim in Strongsville provides licensed nursing-home care with an emphasis on skilled medical support. Residents have access to 24-hour registered nursing coverage, individualized care plans, and on-site rehabilitation services that include physical, occupational, and speech therapy. Clinical teams oversee medication administration, wound management, and post-surgical recovery, while physicians and nurse practitioners conduct regular rounds to monitor chronic conditions and acute issues.
In addition to core skilled nursing, the facility offers short-term respite stays, hospice coordination, and restorative programs designed to maintain mobility and function. Social services staff assist with discharge planning and coordination of outside medical appointments, and on-site lab and pharmacy partnerships help streamline diagnostics and medication adjustments. Residents also receive help with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, and continence care, with staffing patterns adjusted to meet individual acuity levels.
Accommodation options range from private to companion suites, each designed with accessibility in mind. Rooms may feature emergency call systems, step-in showers, and basic furnishings, although not every unit includes every feature. Housekeeping and laundry services are provided, and several rooms open toward landscaped outdoor areas that allow residents to sit outside or take short walks without leaving the secured campus.
Meals are prepared daily by food-service staff working under a dietitian’s guidance to address therapeutic and culturally preferred diets. Residents typically eat in a communal dining room where table service is available, but tray delivery to rooms can be arranged for those recovering from illness or therapy sessions. Menus rotate regularly and include snacks between meals to support nutritional goals.
Common-area amenities include an activity center where scheduled programs, exercise sessions, and group discussions take place, along with a library and computer lounge that offers reading materials, internet access, and space for quiet study or video calls with family. These services aim to keep residents engaged and provide convenient resources without requiring them to leave the property.
