Anticipation is building for a new independent living and assisted living/secure memory care community. The Echelon, now under construction in Medina, promises to be anything but typical. When The Echelon opens in late summer 2018, it will be the first of its kind to combine high-quality care with service that rivals a five-star hotel.

“It’s the ultimate senior living experience,” says Jeff Risner, Owner/Operator. “The Echelon takes the very best practices from both the health and hospitality industries to create an ideal environment—one where members not only feel safe and secure but also independent with assistance.”

Additionally, The Echelon will use proprietary technology to enhance the level of personal attention it provides. The Echelon’s state-of-art technology can detect falls and other emergencies that require rapid medical assistance and can monitor overall health as well. Sophisticated algorithms make it possible to proactively respond to health concerns.

Housed separately, a 100-suite assisted living/secure memory care community will be a distinct but essential part of the Echelon. Licensed nurses and memory care experts will be there around the clock.

A staffing ratio of one-to-eight, compared to the typical one-to-20 ratio found elsewhere, is in place to provide each member an unparalleled level of attention.

Members of the 100-suite independent living community will have access to all of the amenities of a five-star hotel, including chef-prepared meals and concierge service.

The assisted living/secure memory care that neighbors the independent living community creates the opportunity for members of The Echelon to age in place with five-star service.

“Our goal is to inspire people and enrich lives, in every stage and in everything we do,” says Jill Risner, Owner/Operator. “We’re ready to exceed every expectation.”

The Echelon is located at 635 N. Huntington Street in Medina. Call 330-591-2777 or visit EchelonSeniorCare.com.
