This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. The latest standard survey recorded 16 findings, above the OH average of 10.1. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Otterbein Loveland receives highly polarized feedback, with many families praising the cottage-style environment and compassionate, attentive staff. However, a recurring pattern of critical concerns exists regarding medication management, slow response times to call lights, and inconsistent care quality, particularly during weekends and off-hours.

Key Review Excerpts
“The nurse aids treated not only her very badly but also the other patients here. The first time me and my sister walked in to the building, before my mom was even transported, we sat down and the nurses in the kitchen were gossiping about their other employees and patients.”
“She had nurses and aides that didn’t respond to her call button, was left to sleep over night in a wheelchair, she was not given her pain meds for over 24 hours, and had more than one aide speak disrespectfully to her.”
“The community is clean, secure and well maintained, the elders are treated with respect and dignity. This team does an amazing job of dealing with the complexities of nursing care while still providing a home like setting.”
