Altenheim Senior Living
Quality Care in a Family-Like Atmosphere
Altenheim Senior Living is a not-for-profit Life Plan community providing a full continuum of senior services. These include short-term rehabilitative therapies, skilled nursing, assisted and independent living, memory care, outpatient rehabilitation, home health care and private duty services. It is also a resource center for seniors and their families who seek answers to questions regarding senior residential living and senior service offerings.
Its mission is to achieve the optimal level of mental, physical and spiritual well-being of individuals, families and the community being served through the provision of high-quality residential living, skilled nursing care and specialized services offered in a family-like atmosphere.
Started by a group of local women of the German-American Ladies Society, Altenheim opened in 1892 and will mark its 125th anniversary in 2017. To commemorate this landmark event, the Altenheim 125th Anniversary Campaign will be launched, giving residents, families, donors and community supporters the opportunity to contribute to the Altenheim Legacy Society and the naming opportunities for its two new facilities, Shurmer Place Memory Assisted Living and Altenheim Therapy Rehab Center.
Altenheim Skilled Nursing and Rehab has received a 5-star rating by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) for 2017, for the fourth consecutive year. It has been named one of Ohio’s Best Nursing Homes in 2017 by U.S. News & World Report. Skilled Nursing and Rehab has also received the Platinum Quality Designation by CMS, the highest level attainable. Shurmer Place has received a deficiency-free survey, its ninth year in a row. Home Health Care has received a deficiency-free survey from Community Health Accreditation Partner.
These outstanding recognitions have been achieved through the compassionate, caring commitment of the administration, staff and volunteers. They have helped Altenheim Senior Living become renowned as one of the finest senior living communities in Ohio.
