Ohio Living

Not-for-profit senior living with continuum care

Overview

Ohio Living provides aging services in Ohio through 11 life plan communities, offering a continuum of care from independent living to skilled nursing, rehabilitation, memory care, and palliative care, plus home health and hospice services. It funds these programs through resident fees and donations, reinvesting all revenue back into its communities rather than distributing profits. A defining feature is the Life Care Commitment, a promise that no resident will be asked to leave if they exhaust their funds in good faith. The organization partners with other healthcare entities and operates a provider-owned Medicare Advantage plan to coordinate care and improve outcomes, guided by a Christian-based, nonprofit mission.
