McGregor Senior Living and Continuum of Care in Cleveland, Ohio

McGregor in Cleveland, Ohio, is a nonprofit Life Plan Community offering independent living, assisted living, nursing care, rehabilitation, respite care, affordable senior housing, and hospice support.

Senior Living and Care Options on One Campus

McGregor provides a continuum of care designed to address different housing, personal support, nursing, and rehabilitation needs.

Federally subsidized senior housing is also available for income-qualified adults age 62 and older. Hospice services provide end-of-life care and family support through a partnership between McGregor and Judson.
