R Home is a small, caring group home and home health aid provider in Akron, offering affordable, all-inclusive housing for adults who receive SSI or SSDI. Our family-owned home blends safe, clean shared living with paid utilities, WiFi, phone access, laundry, and transportation support. Guided by lived experience of homelessness, we focus on dignity, respect, and stability so residents feel seen, not judged. Medicaid enrollment and CPR and First Aid certification add safety and trust for families, guardians, and caseworkers.
We keep the path into R Home clear and supportive. It starts with a simple call or message to request a free consultation.
We listen, learn about SSI or SSDI status, health needs, and current housing, then explain what daily life looks like in our home.
Next, we review fit and availability, coordinate any Medicaid-related care, and talk through payments.
If everyone agrees, we schedule move-in, help with transportation if needed, and walk residents through house routines so they feel comfortable.
R Home was created by someone who has personally faced homelessness, so we understand how heavy housing stress can feel. That experience shapes how we speak, plan, and support every resident. We listen first, respond without judgment, and focus on practical help. Our RuyalCare approach means residents are treated as valued people, not case numbers, which brings comfort to families and caseworkers.
Housing at R Home is designed around fixed SSI and SSDI budgets. Residents benefit from one predictable cost that includes rent, paid utilities, WiFi, phone access, and on-site laundry. This removes the worry of extra bills or surprise shutoffs. By covering daily basics in a single package, we free residents to focus on health, appointments, and rebuilding stability instead of juggling payments or choosing between necessities.
Our home offers the small comforts that make a big difference, including transportation help, parking, bike parking, and a washing facility on-site. When needed, residents can access home health aid support through our Medicaid-enrolled services, backed by CPR and First Aid certification. This combination lets many people avoid institutional facilities and remain in a warm, residential setting while still receiving important day-to-day assistance.
R Home grew out of our founder's own experience of sleeping in unstable, uncertain places, unsure where safety would come next. That season created deep empathy for adults who live on SSI or SSDI and still struggle to find a clean, respectful place to call home. Today, that history shapes every conversation, house rule, and small act of care in our group home and home health aid services. We invite you to read our full story, meet the heart behind RuyalCare, and see why dignity and understanding sit at the center of our work.
