Deupree House

My mother is a longtime resident of the Deupree Community. She first resided in an independent apartment at The Deupree House. She moved to Deupree Cottages 4 years ago due to an overall physical decline. I share the role of Healthcare Power of Attorney with my brother. We have been very involved in our mother’s care. I have always found caregivers, as well as her primary care physician, to be pleasant and responsive to my mother’s needs. I feel very fortunate knowing that my mother is in such a safe and nurturing environment.

Deupree House and Cottages have been a wonderful experience. The staff are very attentive to my mother-in-law and her family. The physician does a wonderful job. Long term health care facilities have physicians that do not have private practices. They cover multiple facilities and are available per request of the nursing staff. They round on the patients routinely and can be accessible through the staff. My mother-in-law has been a part of this community for about 14 years, the last 4 in the Cottages. My husband and I and his sister visit 2-3 times per week, we have been doing this for years and always feel the physicians and staff are providing the highest quality of care.

After my mom’s stroke, she needed an assisted living home. After a stay at Marjorie P Lee, which was great, we moved her to the Deupree Cottage. The professionals and staff were great and made a bad situation as best as possible. Mom loved her room, we were able to paint it a color she loved and we moved in a good number of furniture pieces from her home in NW Ohio. While it wasn’t home, it was the next best thing. The living room and dining areas are exceptional as the facility is designed as a home, not a nursing home. The outdoor garden area is also attractive and enjoyable for any resident. I would strongly suggest that anyone thinking about such a facility, consider an ERS facility. The leadership and management team, as well as facility staff, are tremendously committed to the residents.

The Duepree Cottages in Cincinnati is not healthy for the elderly because their furnace does not work. The people who live on the end rooms can't control the thermostat. This furnace has to room 4 other rooms first on 1 side then the other rooms might warm but my friends room is always cold. The heat comes on only if 4 other rooms get warm first if a resident wants there room cold then my friends room will be cold. The furnace is a joke. It is set up to heat or cold 4-5 rooms all over the facility. So there might be 10 areas of 5 rooms that have to heat first the last rooms get what's left over which the freezing air the thermostats do not work it is dangerous

Nice - feels like an older clientele....really think mom would like the villas - but the walk is too far to the dining room
