About eight miles north of Columbus, Westerville Senior Living is a mid-rise community in the Sharon neighborhood of Westerville, Ohio.

The home sits on Braun Place in Franklin County, near Mount Carmel St. Ann’s hospital, just 0.41 miles away. That hospital proximity makes routine medical appointments and emergency access easy. The car-dependent location carries a Walk Score of 22, so occupants and visiting families will need transportation for most activities outside the building.

Recreation programming ensures occupants have structured activity options all week.

Occupants in assisted living who later need more support can shift to a higher care level without leaving the community. Similarly, as needs evolve, independent-living residents can move into assisted living or memory care. That continuity reduces the disruption and upheaval that often comes with moving to a new facility.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care 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.
Does Ohio Medicaid cover memory care?
Ohio Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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 memory care?
