Memory care is secured, dementia-specific assisted living. In Ohio it is not a separate license — a facility running a special care unit must provide a written disclosure under OAC 3701-16-07(F)(5) covering staffing, training, programming, costs and physical design.

Short answer

No verified memory care provider is currently based in Brecksville, Ohio. The closest verified options are listed below. Assisted living and memory care in Ohio are licensed under a single Residential Care Facility license, and memory care additionally requires a written special care unit disclosure rather than a separate certification.

What to watch for with memory care in Brecksville

  • Ask to see the special care unit disclosure, not the RCF license. Any community can market to dementia families; only a genuine special care unit must produce this document.

The Brecksville market specifically

Brecksville borders the Cuyahoga Valley National Park in southern Cuyahoga County, near the Independence and Broadview Heights corridor.

Brecksville's location near the Cuyahoga Valley National Park means it draws some families from both the southern Cuyahoga suburbs and northern Summit County, even though the county line changes which regional agencies apply.

Visit twice, at different hours

A scheduled mid-morning tour and an unannounced 7 p.m. drop-in can look like two different buildings. Evening and overnight are when staffing thins and when families are most often surprised, so ask the overnight ratio specifically rather than the daytime one.

Eat a meal there. Talk to a resident's family member in the parking lot rather than one the community introduces you to. Neither takes long and both tell you more than the brochure.

You can check any Ohio facility's record free. Use the ODH Licensed Facilities Search for current license status and inspection history, and the Ohio Department of Aging's Long-Term Care Quality Navigator for consumer-facing detail. Assisted living is not CMS star-rated. Read the full explanation →

Questions Cleveland families ask

What are Ohio's income and asset limits for nursing home Medicaid in 2025?

As of 2025, the income limit for a single applicant is $2,901 per month, 300 percent of the SSI federal benefit rate, and the asset limit is $2,000 for a single applicant or $3,000 combined for a couple where both need care. A community spouse can keep between $31,267 and $148,620 in countable assets under the Community Spouse Resource Allowance. These figures adjust annually and should be confirmed with the Ohio Department of Medicaid or an elder law attorney.

How do I actually apply for Medicaid long-term care coverage in Ohio?

Applications go through the Ohio Department of Medicaid at benefits.ohio.gov, or families can contact the Area Agency on Aging serving their county for help with a waiver assessment and to get on any relevant waiting list. Applicants need to meet both the nursing-facility level-of-care clinical standard and the state's non-MAGI financial eligibility rules.

What is Medicaid Estate Recovery in Ohio, and can the state take my parent's house?

Ohio's Medicaid Estate Recovery Program (MERP) is a federally required program that recovers certain Medicaid long-term care payments from a deceased recipient's estate, for recipients 55 or older or of any age if permanently institutionalized. Ohio is an "expanded recovery" state, meaning assets passing outside probate, like transfer-on-death deeds or joint survivorship property, can be subject to recovery too. Recovery is delayed while a surviving spouse, minor child, or blind or disabled child lives in the home, and hardship waivers are evaluated case by case.

Does Ohio Medicaid pay for room and board in assisted living?

No. The Assisted Living Waiver pays only for personal care and supportive services delivered by the facility's staff; room and board is the resident's own responsibility, capped at the SSI federal benefit rate minus a $50 personal needs allowance. This is true across Ohio's long-term care Medicaid programs: PASSPORT and MyCare Ohio also do not cover room and board in any residential setting.
