Recent reviews of Nursing Homes in Gahanna, OH
Capital City Hospice in Columbus, OH
5.0

We were very fortunate that The Inn was able to arrange for my dad's hospice care with Capital City Hospice while he was there. They were so very helpful and kind and they helped my mother and myself as well as my dad. I would definitely recommend them

Amber Park Senior Living in Pickerington, OH
4.8

From our first visit to the facility, I have been impressed. The staff is extremely kind and accommodating. The building is very clean and well kept. "Change" for my mom can be challenging, but the staff has handled it all with Grace. We are very pleased to have mom mom reside at Amber Park

Paramount Senior Living at Westerville
4.7

We chose Paramount Senior Living because it was smaller facility that is very clean and is seems like they try to make it very home like rather than institutional. The dining area is more like a dining room you would sit in at home instead of a cafeteria. Overall I would recommend to others looking.
