May We Help

7501 Wooster Pike, Cincinnati, OH 45227
Overview of May We Help

May We Help is not a care facility. It’s a Cincinnati-based organization at 7501 Wooster Pike that builds and delivers custom assistive devices to people with disabilities, free of charge. The team includes industrial designers, engineers, inventors, welders, physicians, and therapists working together on adaptive solutions that cover both short-term and long-term needs, for adults and children alike.

Donations of adaptive equipment are accepted. Veterans are specifically mentioned as a population served, with the organization also helping navigate transportation and insurance matters beyond the device work itself.

May We Help is listed under senior living resources for the Ohio Valley region. For families and individuals researching disability support options in the greater Cincinnati area, the organization functions as a community resource rather than a placement option, and that distinction is worth making clear.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Ohio

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Ohio?

Assisted living in Ohio supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Ohio?

Assisted living in Ohio is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Ohio Medicaid cover assisted living?

Ohio Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Ohio) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 443 assisted living facilities in Ohio. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Ohio?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Ohio, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Ohio?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
