Cedar Living

Aria Senior Living's small, 16-unit residential-home model for assisted living and memory care.

Cedar Living, at 30091 Cedar Road in Mayfield Heights, is operated by Aria Senior Living and offers assisted living and memory care built around a notably small, residential-home model, with just 16 units at this location. That scale is a significant departure from the much larger campus-style communities that make up most of this guide, such as Mount Alverna Village's 24-acre campus or The Normandy's 30-plus-acre lakefront property.

The operator's stated philosophy, that residents 'live in a house, not a unit or wing,' reflects an intentional design choice aimed at making the environment feel like a real home rather than an institutional facility, an approach specifically aimed at combating the stigma often associated with Alzheimer's disease and other memory-related conditions through family-style care and smaller staff-to-resident ratios inherent to a 16-unit setting.

Located on Cedar Road in Mayfield Heights, Cedar Living offers families in eastern Cuyahoga County an alternative model to the larger assisted living and memory care campuses profiled elsewhere in this guide. For families who believe a smaller, more intimate residential setting will better suit a loved one living with dementia than a larger institutional-feeling community, Cedar Living's 16-unit, house-style model is one of the more distinctive options in the greater Cleveland area.

Questions Cleveland families ask

Does Ohio's Medicaid expansion pay for a parent's assisted living or nursing home care?

No. Ohio's Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act, effective January 1, 2014, covers adults age 19 to 64 up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level for acute and primary medical care. It's a completely separate pathway from the aged/blind/disabled Medicaid rules that govern nursing home and waiver eligibility for seniors. Long-term care coverage for seniors runs through Ohio's non-MAGI Medicaid rules, not the expansion population.

How does Ohio's Assisted Living Waiver work, and does it cover the full monthly bill?

The Assisted Living Waiver, administered by the Ohio Department of Aging through PASSPORT Administrative Agencies, pays for personal care and supportive services delivered inside a licensed Residential Care Facility for Medicaid-eligible adults 21 and older with a hands-on ADL need. It does not cover room and board; the resident pays that directly to the facility, capped at the SSI federal benefit rate minus a $50 personal needs allowance.

What is PASSPORT and how is it different from the Assisted Living Waiver?

PASSPORT is Ohio's flagship home and community-based Medicaid waiver, delivered through Area Agencies on Aging, designed to keep Medicaid-eligible seniors who need nursing-facility level of care living at home rather than in an institution. It covers personal care, home-delivered meals, adult day care, minor home modifications, medical transportation, and, as of October 2024, Structured Family Caregiving. Like the Assisted Living Waiver, it never pays for room and board, since it's strictly an in-home program.
