Well, a week a go I may have recommended this faculty. It sure does look nice on the surface .... but we all know it’s what’s deeper that matters. Their treatment of my grandmother today is beyond reprehensible. It shows complete disregard for her and for her care. I’m appalled. This is not a facility to go to if you, or your loved one ACTUALLY NEEDS CARE. If you or, or your loved one, is fully independent then Sylvania Lakes is happy to take your money.

Fair, could be better

My biggest complaint would be cleanliness. Once you move in, the rooms are not kept up as well as they should be.

poor evaluation process lack of adjustment assistance

Found facility unsatisfactory, poor staffing did not help with adjustment to their environment and forced us to to seek different care. Staff seemed unwilling to properly evaluate the specific needs of our family member. Situation could have been handle in more professional manner.

Great experience- Great value

I would have to strongly disagree with the previous post. Both my parents have been at Lakes if Sylvania since April [date removed]. Our family’s experience has been fabulous! I believe the price tag is well worth every penny. And the fee posted by the previous post is not the most common price. Please do not let their posted price scare you off. The prices vary in room selection and needed services. This community truly cares about their residents and their families. With a disabled sibling in another local facility, I know first hand how much better Lakes if Sylvania is over others in the area. I cannot day enough great things about this place!

quality does not match the price tag

The rooms are very small. There is not a lounge area in each wing of the facility so residents with mobility issues can gather and socialize. When my father would wonder out in the hall they would quickly redirect him back to his room. The dining service was very slow, often times my dad would have to wait 45 minutes for his food to be served. This could be fixed by letting the residents order their food one meal ahead of time, and by providing a choice of two entree not just having a main entree and al a cart. The quality of food and care did not match the $ 8,000 a month price tag.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Ohio regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Ohio regulations for Assisted Living.
