10 Best Nursing Homes in Dayton, OH

Who are you searching for?

Known for its rich history as the Birthplace of Aviation, Dayton, Ohio, is a warm, welcoming community, offering an ideal environment for a diverse range of senior living options. When searching for senior care options, “nursing homes” often encompass a broad range of senior care, including skilled nursing facilities, assisted living communities, and memory care centers. While each of these offers unique services tailored to varying levels of care, they all share the primary goal of supporting seniors in a safe, nurturing environment.

Skilled nursing facilities, or what most people traditionally consider nursing homes, provide around-the-clock medical care and supervision for seniors with serious health conditions. Assisted living communities, on the other hand, are ideal for seniors who require some help with daily activities but don’t need intensive medical care. Lastly, memory care centers specialize in providing a secure, structured environment for seniors living with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia, with staff trained specifically in memory care.

In Dayton, A Place for Mom has a network of 20 partner senior care facilities, all within 10 miles of downtown, offering assisted living and memory care services to meet the varied needs of seniors. While we don’t have stand-alone skilled nursing listings, 20% of our partner assisted living and memory care communities have on-site skilled nursing wings and almost all of them offer on-site nursing care.

This guide will offer you insights into nursing homes, assisted living, and memory care facilities in Dayton, addressing your concerns about costs, regulations, transportation, and more to help you find the best care option for your loved ones.

Costs of nursing homes in the Dayton area

The average cost of a skilled nursing home (a facility that provides around-the-clock, short- and long-term care) in Dayton is approximately $8,091 for a semi-private room and $9,353 for a private room.^[02] This is a significant investment, representing both the high level of skilled care provided in these facilities and the comprehensive nature of services offered.

However, many people use nursing homes as an umbrella term and are actually looking for assisted living or memory care options. A Place for Mom’s proprietary data shows that the actual average cost for assisted living at one of our Dayton partner facilities is approximately $4,486, and for memory care, it’s around $4,679.^[01] These costs are inclusive of additional fees and service add-ons, reflecting the more personalized care and services in these settings.

Nursing homes typically offer a wide array of services, including round-the-clock medical care, rehabilitation services, meals, and personal care assistance. In contrast, assisted living facilities primarily offer help with daily activities, medication management, meals, and housekeeping, often with additional amenities like fitness programs and social activities. Memory care facilities provide all the services of assisted living but with an added focus on providing a secure environment and specialized care for individuals with memory issues.

VA benefits for nursing homes in Dayton

7028

Number of veterans who live in Dayton

About 18% of Dayton veterans are 75+

Veterans residing in Dayton who are in need of skilled nursing home care, assisted living, or memory care may be eligible for benefits through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). These benefits can assist with the cost of care and services provided in these facilities. Although the process of understanding eligibility and applying for benefits can be complex, a variety of resources are available to aid veterans in this journey.

One significant VA benefit is the Aid and Attendance (A&A) benefit, which can be used to cover expenses for living arrangements that improve the quality of life for veterans. This can include the costs associated with senior housing and care, such as assisted living and memory care facilities in Dayton. However, it’s crucial to note that Aid and Attendance is a needs-based benefit; this means it is awarded based on the applicant’s financial and medical eligibility, including factors such as income, assets, and medical condition.

Another noteworthy benefit is the VA Pension, which can be utilized to cover housing or health-related needs for veterans who are disabled or 65 and older. A&A is added to the VA Pension monthly, and payments can be used for all health-related and living expenses that enhance life quality.

Applying for these benefits isn’t always straightforward, and veterans services officers play an essential role in navigating the complex VA benefits system. They can provide assistance with understanding eligibility and applying for benefits. These professionals, recognized and vetted by the VA, are often the first point of contact when starting the application process. Whether you believe you qualify for benefits or not, this first step ensures that you don’t miss out on any benefits you might be eligible for. They can be found at veterans services organizations (VSOs) as well as the Ohio Department of Veterans Services and the Montgomery County Veterans Service Commission.

Medicaid

Ohio’s Medicaid program can provide significant assistance for those in need of long-term care, including those in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and memory care communities.

To start, it’s crucial to note that Medicaid in Ohio does not typically cover custodial care, including room and board, in assisted living or memory care facilities. However, it does cover such care in nursing homes, making it an essential resource for those in need of more comprehensive, skilled nursing care.

While Medicaid may not cover all costs associated with assisted living or memory care, it does offer home and community based services (HCBS) waivers, which can be used to cover some medically necessary costs in these settings. This can be a lifeline for those seeking assistance with the cost of specific services in these types of facilities.

Ohio’s Medicaid program includes specific resources like the Ohio Benefits Long-Term Services and Supports (OBLTSS) program, which provides a wealth of information about home and community based long-term services and supports. It’s a beneficial resource for individuals, their family members, and professionals who need help navigating the system. More details can be found on the OBLTSS website.

For seniors aged 65 and above, or for individuals considered legally blind or with a disability, the Aged, Blind, or Disabled Medicaid could be an option. This program is specifically tailored to support the unique needs of these demographics.

The PASSPORT program is another valuable resource for seniors aged 60 and above who need the level of care provided in a nursing home but would rather stay in their home or community. It’s a statewide program funded by Medicaid and it is managed through the local Area Agency on Aging.

The Ohio Home Care Waiver is a particularly beneficial program for those considering assisted living. This program covers the costs of care in an assisted living facility for eligible residents with Medicaid, allowing seniors to use personal resources to cover room and board expenses.

Applying for these resources can be done online through the Ohio Department of Medicaid’s online portal. Be sure to reach out to your local Area Agency on Aging or a long-term care ombudsman to help you navigate the process and understand the specific benefits and coverage available for your family member.

Medicare

Medicare is a federal program that provides health coverage for seniors aged 65 and older and some younger individuals with disabilities. In Ohio, Medicare can cover skilled nursing home care, but only under specific conditions and on a limited basis.

Generally, Medicare covers the cost of skilled nursing care when it’s necessary for the treatment of an illness or injury and the patient requires daily skilled care, such as intravenous injections or physical therapy. The coverage typically includes semi-private rooms, meals, skilled nursing care, physical and occupational therapy, prescription drugs, and other services. However, the coverage only lasts for a limited time – up to 100 days in a benefit period – and after the first 20 days, patients are required to pay a coinsurance.

When it comes to assisted living and memory care, Medicare does not cover custodial care, such as room and board. However, it may cover medically necessary in-home care services, such as part-time skilled nursing care, physical therapy, and medical social services delivered within the facility.

In Dayton, there are a number of resources available to help residents understand and apply for Medicare. For example, the Ohio Senior Health Insurance Information Program (OSHIIP) provides Medicare beneficiaries with free, objective health insurance information, one-on-one counseling, and education about Medicare options. Additionally, Ohio Medicare Savings Programs like Medicare Premium Assistance Programs (MPAP) can also assist low-income seniors by helping manage their Medicare premiums and copayments.

A program called MyCare-Ohio is specifically designed to simplify the application process by coordinating benefits from both Medicaid and Medicare through a single point of contact. This program is tailored for individuals aged 60 and above who are dually qualified for Medicaid and Medicare. It’s worth noting that there are no extra costs associated with enrolling in this program.

Applications for Medicare can be submitted through the Ohio Department of Health website or at your local Social Security Administration office. The long-term care ombudsman is available to guide you through every step of the Medicare application process. They are dedicated to advocating for the rights of home care, assisted living, and nursing home residents. With their help, Dayton residents can navigate the complexities of Medicare, finding the support and coverage they need for their unique health situations.

Understand Ohio laws and regulations for nursing homes

In the state of Ohio, nursing homes, assisted living, and memory care facilities are required to abide by a set of laws and regulations to ensure the well-being and safety of residents. These facilities are typically grouped under the term long-term care facilities and must meet certain licensure requirements, follow strict standards, and undergo regular inspections.

License Requirements

In Ohio, all nursing homes, assisted living, and memory care facilities must be licensed. The Department of Health, specifically the Bureau of Regulatory Operations, is responsible for processing initial, renewal, and change of operator license applications. In addition to state licensure, the Bureau of Regulatory Operations also certifies nursing facilities for participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs and ensures compliance with federal regulations.

Memory care facilities, which provide specialized care for individuals with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia, fall under the assisted living umbrella. Therefore, they must follow all licensing requirements for assisted living facilities but also need to adhere to additional state guidelines pertaining to memory care.

Inspections

Regular inspections of nursing homes and residential care facilities take place at least every nine to 15 months. The purpose of these inspections is to ensure that these facilities meet standards to protect residents. This includes hiring sufficient quality staff, managing medications properly, protecting residents from physical and mental abuse, and storing and preparing food properly.

The state’s survey agencies generally conduct nursing home inspections annually but may inspect more frequently if there are complaints or facility-reported incidents. During the inspection, various aspects of life in the nursing home are reviewed, including resident care, staff-resident interactions, and the overall nursing home environment.

Inspection reports and licenses are made publicly available. You can request an inspection report on the Ohio Department of Health’s website. First, find the facility, and then visit the Ohio Department of Health’s Provider Report and Information Extract to download spreadsheets of nursing facilities or residential care facilities.

Nursing home standards

Ohio’s regulations also set specific standards for nursing homes. For instance, each nursing home is required to have a sufficient direct care staff-to-patient ratio, with each resident receiving a minimum daily average of two and one-half hours of direct care and services.

Each nursing home must employ a registered nurse as a director of nursing who is on duty five days per week, eight hours per day, predominantly between the hours of 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. This individual is tasked with directing the provision of nursing services.

Nursing homes are also required to have a resident-focused and goal-driven care plan for each resident, initiated upon admission and completed within seven days of the initial comprehensive assessment. An interdisciplinary team prepares this plan, and the residents, along with their sponsors, are invited to participate in the care planning process.

Assisted living and memory care standards

Assisted living and memory care facilities in Ohio are also regulated by the state to ensure that they provide high-quality care to residents.

While Ohio’s laws don’t specify a staff-to-patient ratio, plenty of staff must be on hand to cover all resident needs. When skilled nursing care is provided — as it is at 25% of our partner facilities in Dayton — a licensed nurse has to be on call.

Staff members must receive comprehensive training that includes orientation, emergency procedures, and learning about upholding residents’ rights. Specialized training is mandated for staff taking care of residents with late-stage memory impairment, behavioral issues, or mental illness. In the first two weeks on the job, staff members have to finish two hours of training, with an additional four hours of continuing education required annually.

Before your loved one can be admitted, a health assessment must be completed and updated each year. This plan will outline the care your loved one will need and how it will be delivered.

Understanding these laws and regulations can help you make informed decisions about long-term care as a resident or family member. Always feel free to ask facilities about their licensing, inspections, and adherence to state standards to ensure that you or your loved one will receive the highest level of care.
