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.
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.
