The Shaker Heights market specifically
Shaker Heights borders Cleveland's Buckeye-Shaker neighborhood along Shaker Boulevard, and shares the East Side's proximity to both major hospital systems.
Shaker Heights families often also consider Saint Luke's Manor just across the city line in Cleveland's Buckeye-Shaker neighborhood, since the two areas share a border along Shaker Boulevard.
Before you sign anything
Get the all-in monthly cost in writing at your parent's current assessed care level, ask what triggers the next care level and what it costs, and ask for the rate increase history across the last three years. Communities that will not put these in writing are telling you something.
Ask what happens if private funds run out, and whether the community holds an Assisted Living Waiver provider agreement. A meaningful share of Cleveland-area communities do not, which means a second move at the worst possible time.
