Choosing a long-term care provider for yourself or a loved one is an important and often difficult decision. The Ohio Department of Aging's Long-Term Care Consumer Guide can help.

Explore information about long-term care services that can be delivered in your home, in your community, and in different types of facilities to meet your care needs or those of a loved one.

Use the guide to search for and compare specific nursing homes, residential care facilities (assisted living), and Class 2 Residential Facilities (adult group homes) near you. Information includes self-reported information about services offered, facility size, and staffing. It also include Ohio Department of Health survey reports and resident and family satisfaction survey results.
