Assisted Living & Memory Care · Columbus, OH

Overview of Brookdale Westerville

Brookdale Westerville is an assisted living and memory care community in Columbus, Ohio. Assisted living includes help with daily activities, while memory care provides structured support and supervision for residents who may be at risk of wandering. Having both care levels in one community may suit someone whose needs could grow over time without requiring a move elsewhere.

With 13 beds, the community has a smaller setting where staff and residents can get to know one another. Starting prices are $4,035 per month for assisted living and $4,620 per month for memory care, giving families separate monthly cost points for each level of care. Respite care is also available for a short stay when a family’s usual caregiver needs temporary support.

Residents may keep pets. The courtyard and garden offer outdoor space within the community, while restaurant-style meals are served in the dining room. A salon and spa allow residents to receive grooming services on site.
