StoryPoint Shaker Heights

Assisted living and memory care with an on-site art studio and golf simulator, under three miles from Cleveland Clinic South Pointe Hospital.

StoryPoint Shaker Heights, located at 17000 Van Aken Boulevard, offers assisted living and memory care within a community that includes an on-site art studio and a golf simulator, amenities aimed at giving residents indoor recreational and creative outlets regardless of weather or mobility level.

The Van Aken Boulevard address places the community under three miles from Cleveland Clinic South Pointe Hospital, a notably close proximity that may be relevant to families concerned about emergency response times or the convenience of follow-up care with Cleveland Clinic-affiliated physicians.

Shaker Heights itself is one of Cleveland's more established inner-ring suburbs, known for its tree-lined streets and the nearby Van Aken District shopping and dining corridor, giving residents' families a walkable commercial area to visit during trips to the community. As one of several StoryPoint-branded communities in this guide, StoryPoint Shaker Heights shares that operator's general assisted living and memory care approach, but its specific combination of an art studio, golf simulator, and close proximity to a Cleveland Clinic hospital campus are the features that distinguish this particular location from other StoryPoint or competing assisted living communities elsewhere in Cuyahoga County. Families weighing this StoryPoint location against other Cuyahoga County assisted living and memory care communities profiled in this guide should factor in both its specific amenity set and its Cleveland Clinic-adjacent location when narrowing down candidates for an in-person tour.

Questions Cleveland families ask

How do I help my parent transition after a dementia diagnosis in Cleveland?

Start with an honest conversation about safety, daily functioning, and the parent's own wishes, and use the diagnosis as an opportunity to establish or confirm powers of attorney while the person can still participate in the decision. From there, evaluate whether in-home support, adult day care, or a memory care special care unit, with its required OAC 3701-16-07(F)(5) disclosure, best matches current needs, since dementia care needs typically evolve over time rather than settling at one level.

What is respite care and how do I access it in the Cleveland area?

Respite care provides short-term, temporary care for a senior so their regular family caregiver can rest, travel, or handle other responsibilities, delivered either in-home, at an adult day program, or as a short overnight stay in a licensed facility. Ohio's PASSPORT waiver covers some respite services for eligible participants, and the Area Agency on Aging serving your county, Western Reserve or Direction Home Akron Canton, can help identify local respite options and any available funding.

What senior care resources exist in Cuyahoga County, Ohio?

Cuyahoga County is served by the Western Reserve Area Agency on Aging (WRAAA) and falls under MyCare Ohio's Northeast Ohio region and the Region 10A Long-Term Care Ombudsman, the Long-Term Care Ombudsman of Cleveland. As the region's population center, with about 265,000 residents 65 and older, Cuyahoga also has the largest concentration of assisted living and memory care communities, especially in the East Side inner suburbs and West Side lakefront corridor. The county also runs its own Adult Protective Services line through the Division of Senior and Adult Services, at 216-420-6700.
