About This Community

Friendship Village brings together independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing in one Dayton neighborhood, giving families flexible options as needs change. Residents here find daily life supported by 12–16 hour nursing, medication management, and help with bathing, dressing, and transfers—all designed to encourage independence while providing safety nets. The community stands out for its wide range of amenities: a library, fitness room, walking paths, movie nights, music programs, and even a spa. Meals are chef-prepared with attention to special diets, and transportation helps residents stay connected to the wider community. While the average monthly cost is higher than some local options, the breadth of care and activities aims to justify the investment for families seeking comprehensive support[1]. Highlights: - Multiple care levels under one roof, from independent living to skilled nursing - Chef-prepared meals with options for special dietary needs - Robust activity calendar with fitness, arts, and social events

Living Environment

Cleanliness & Maintenance: Cleanliness receives praise in some reviews, but others report significant maintenance problems, including plumbing issues, stained carpets, and even mentions of black mold. Facility upkeep appears inconsistent, with both positive and negative experiences noted.

Atmosphere & Community Feel: The community aims for a lively, engaging environment with scheduled activities and social spaces. Some residents and visitors find the atmosphere welcoming, while others feel the social experience is undermined by staffing and care concerns.

Safety & Security: A 24-hour call system and supervision are advertised, but some reviews question the reliability of emergency systems and note instances where families felt compelled to involve police due to unresolved issues.

Family Experience

Families report a range of experiences, from satisfaction with staff attentiveness and community activities to frustration over unreturned calls, billing disputes, and concerns about loved ones’ well-being. Communication with management is a recurring theme, with some feeling supported and others left without answers to urgent questions.

Care Approach

Friendship Village promotes a model where residents can transition between care levels as needed, with nursing support, daily living assistance, and medication management. However, review feedback suggests that the consistency and quality of care may vary, with some residents receiving attentive support and others experiencing gaps in essential services.

Value Consideration

With monthly costs averaging $5,770—above the local average—Friendship Village positions itself as a premium option offering extensive amenities and multiple care levels. Value perceptions are mixed: some families appreciate the range of services, while others question whether the higher price is matched by consistent care quality and facility conditions[1].
