Sagamore Hills Estates Senior Living, located at 997 W. Aurora Road, was a senior living facility that provided assisted living, memory care, and respite care services. The facility was previously known as Elmcroft of Sagamore Hills before management was taken over by Sinceri Senior Living, based in Vancouver, Washington. With over 77 communities in 21 states, Sinceri Senior Living operated Sagamore Hills Estates along with two other senior living communities in Northeast Ohio. The facility had a licensed capacity of 214 residents and served as a home to many elderly individuals in need of specialized care.
However, in a surprising turn of events, Sagamore Hills Estates announced its decision to close its doors, leaving many families and residents in a state of uncertainty. Families were informed of the closure in early April, with the deadline for residents to move out set for June 1. Despite efforts by Sinceri Senior Living to assist residents in finding suitable placements in other local senior living communities, the closure caused distress and sadness among residents and their families. Many residents had to quickly adapt to a new living arrangement, causing additional stress during an already challenging time.
The closure of Sagamore Hills Estates was met with disappointment by the community, as the facility had been a place of trust and care for many residents. The facility, which was constructed in 1999 and had an appraised value of $6.35 million, played a crucial role in providing essential services to elderly individuals in the area. The news of its closure marked the end of an era for those who had called Sagamore Hills Estates their home. Despite the challenges faced by the closure, efforts were made to ensure that residents were transitioned to new living arrangements that met their health and safety needs.
