The Crescent at Oakleaf Village in Sylvania, OH is designed for residents who want an Independent Living setting without the added layer of memory-care services. The community’s primary clinical support comes from on-site podiatry visits, helping residents stay ahead of foot-health issues that can affect balance and mobility. Medication management monitoring for Independent Living residents is also available, giving individuals and families an extra level of reassurance that prescriptions are taken as ordered.

Additional day-to-day assistance is offered on an as-needed basis. Staff can step in with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting support for residents who normally manage these tasks on their own but occasionally need a hand. Transfers can be handled with a walker or with standby supervision, and the building’s exterior doors are alarmed to reduce the chance of someone inadvertently leaving the grounds unsafely.

Apartments vary, but many include a private bathroom, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option for residents to paint or decorate to suit personal taste; not every unit has every feature, so it’s wise to confirm specifics during a tour. The goal is to let residents arrange their space much like a typical apartment while keeping staff close by if assistance is required.

Meals are prepared to order three times a day, and snacks are available between dining hours. Independent Living residents can sign up for a monthly meal plan, or choose to cook on their own if they prefer. Housekeeping and linen services are scheduled routinely, and personal laundry can be handled by staff as part of the weekly cycle. Medication management monitoring rounds out the Independent Living support package.

Residents have access to parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, an exercise room, a wellness center, internet throughout the building, a barber and beauty shop, and landscaped communal gardens. Scheduled transportation is offered, and the property is close to public transit stops for residents who still drive or like to venture out independently. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
