Recent reviews of Independent Living in Cincinnati, OH
Wickshire Deer Park in Cincinnati, OH
4.9

Our whole family was welcomed with open arms, not just my mother. And that was important - because even though my mother is the resident, she isn't' the only one going through something. Also, the way they speak to the residents and care for them is what you would want for your loved one. Even though the facility doesn't have all the bells and whistles, they make up for it with the care they provide. And that's what was most important to us.

They had an excellent ambassador who gave us the initial tour. Everyone is very friendly. They can maybe add more outside events with the residents? Also help with simple hygiene for elderly folks. My dad is very thankful we found this place for him

In Cincinnati, OH, seniors have access to local offices and organizations that may help them obtain financial assistance for senior care, including:

Transportation

Public transportation is available in Cincinnati through the Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Authority (SORTA), the Transit Authority of Northern Kentucky (TANK), and the Clermont Transportation Connection. Almost all of these lines, including the TANK routes, are based out of downtown Cincinnati. The Cincinnati Bell Connector is a modern streetcar line that connects downtown Cincinnati, the Banks, and the Over-the-Rhine neighborhoods. It operates 365 days a year, from 6:30 am to midnight. The Airporter service offers affordable rides between the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport and downtown Cincinnati.

Health care

Cincinnati offers several health care providers for seniors wanting to be proactive about their health or for seniors seeking treatment for chronic conditions. The area has several hospitals, including The Christ Hospital, Bethesda North Hospital, and St. Elizabeth Healthcare Edgewood-Covington.

Senior activities

Located on the banks of the Ohio River, Cincinnati is filled with cultural opportunities and Midwest charm. Known for its 19th-century architecture, the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood includes the highly regarded Findlay Market and features a variety of food and craft vendors. The Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden is the fifth-oldest zoo in the United States, housing over 500 animals and 3,000 plants, and is a major destination for locals and travelers alike. Cincinnati also is home to a number of noteworthy museums. The Cincinnati Museum Center is located in the old Art Deco-style Union Terminal, and houses artifacts and exhibits that span over 6,000 years of human and natural history. The National Underground Railroad Freedom Center is a monument to the brave individuals who helped escaping slaves find freedom in the North. The American Sign Museum is another popular Cincinnati destination, with its colorful displays of vintage signs, neon displays, and sign-making equipment. Last, but certainly not least, the Taft Museum — housed in a National Historic Landmark built in 1820 — offers an excellent collection of fine art, including works by the likes of Rembrandt and Goya.
