The Kenwood by Senior Star
Senior Living Community in Cincinnati
The Kenwood by Senior Star is Cincinnati’s premier senior living community. It offers the highest level of personalized service in a five-star environment, while also providing proven state-of-the-art nursing and best care practices should residents require them. This resident-inspired approach to service allows The Kenwood staff to concentrate on and exceed expectations for the unique intellectual, emotional and physical growth of each individual, while residents continue living, loving and experiencing life.
The Kenwood by Senior Star is not your average retirement community. Nestled among the bluffs between Kenwood and Mariemont, the 16-story retirement community offers breathtaking views and an elegant design exclusively for residents aged 62 and up. Amenities designed for the ultimate in service and convenience – such as a spa, concierge, driver, health club and gourmet chef – provide everything a resident could need in a safe, comfortable and supportive community.
“Service is the number one priority at The Kenwood,” said Tom Rotz, co-executive director at The Kenwood. “Our goal is for all of our residents to feel completely at home, having anything they could wish for right at their fingertips.”
There are four primary offerings at The Kenwood: The Residences (215 luxurious apartment homes, ranging from one-bedrooms to penthouse suites), Living with Assistance, Memory Support and Rehabilitation/Skilled Nursing. The theme that connects them all is The Kenwood’s focus on personalized service.
The Residences at The Kenwood offers a vibrant lifestyle that caters to residents’ unique needs and helps them thrive – all within a culture that focuses on the individual and exceeding their expectations. Resident-driven programming offers diverse choices that help residents thrive, such as learning a foreign language, enjoying a wine tasting, or taking an art class. Beautiful apartment-style living offers all of the conveniences and amenities residents are used to, with breathtaking views of Greater Cincinnati and ambiance available only in a community as unique as The Kenwood.
Living with Assistance at The Kenwood means the very best in personalized, resident-centered care that helps individuals to continue to grow and remain connected, while supporting their health and safety. Residents living with assistance at The Kenwood have their own private entrance and parking area. The entire staff, from care partners to the Medical Director, takes the time to understand each resident’s individual and unique needs, which ensures they receive the right living assistance. The staff also focuses a great deal of attention on providing access to personalized activities and ongoing connection to the local community.
According to Rotz, this personalized approach benefits the entire family. “Our staff concentrates on what they do best – providing excellent care – so a spouse or child caregiver can concentrate on enjoying family bonds. This can be incredibly restorative for family members who have been functioning as caregivers, which can be a challenging and stressful process,” he said.
Memory Support at The Kenwood revolves around understanding and embracing each resident’s individual cognitive abilities, so that the staff can provide holistic care. The Kenwood’s leadership strongly believes lifestyle plays a role in memory care, so there is great focus on diverse programming, off-campus excursion, and community engagement that support living well.
The community’s highly-trained staff specializes in continually adapting memory care programs to each individual’s strengths. Its approach is simple: focus on what a person can do (instead of what they can’t do) and create purpose in their life. The Kenwood’s cutting-edge programming such as a Snoezelen® room, Dakim® BrainFitness™ software and functional Destination Programming™ promotes cognitive activity and gives residents a sense of purpose and fulfillment.
Skilled Nursing at The Kenwood (scheduled to open late 2011) is better described as “boutique rehabilitation”: the world class service of a five-star hotel coupled with the very best in rehabilitation practices. Under the belief that the healing environment is just as important as care, The Kenwood offers an experience – with amenities such as spa products, fine-dining room service and in-unit technology – that promotes living well, not just feeling well. In addition, Skilled Nursing at The Kenwood offers the ambiance of spacious, private apartments and the convenience of a separate entrance and parking for this specialized area at The Kenwood.
The lifestyle is secondary only to the care that recovering patients receive. The community also offers round-the-clock nursing staff and rehabilitation services six days a week, which facilitates quick healing and a swift return to everyday life.
Senior Star, the management company that operates The Kenwood, is constantly reinvesting energy and resources into training and new programs that improve the company’s high standards and performance. Amenities, programs and experiences are tailored to each of the community’s residents, and the staff takes seriously their role in helping residents maintain their sense of purpose.
