What this means for your family

Autumnwood is widely praised for its friendly staff and clean environment, making it a strong candidate for those prioritizing a warm, social atmosphere. However, because some families have noted concerns about the size and cleanliness of semi-private rooms, we strongly recommend requesting a tour of the specific room your loved one will occupy before committing.

Key Review Excerpts

The haloween trick or treat was amazing They treat residents like family and its a wonderful asset to tiffin community They involve residents in so much fun activities

Community member · 2024★★★★★

My husband is happy at Autumnwood. He says he gets more attention from the staff and there isn’t much wait time when they are called. He is very happy with the food as well.

Long-term resident's family · 2024★★★★★

Facility being remodeled; however resident’s rooms are not and they are very small (semi-private) and most of the times not very clean. I recommend touring the facility prior to placing a loved one there.
