Laurels of West Columbus

Laurels of West Columbus sits at 441 Norton Rd in Columbus, Ohio, and you'll find it's a large, 62,000 square foot senior living community with 97 beds that offers nearly every care type a person might need, whether someone's looking for independent living, assisted living, memory care, home care, skilled nursing, or even short-term options like rehab or respite stays, which is handy for people coming out of the hospital before heading home. Folks who need long-term care can get nursing home services here, and those facing chronic illness or end-of-life needs can use hospice services, with care and comfort being important parts of their day-to-day. The building has both private and semi-private suites, all sorts of amenities like a courtyard, modern Wi-Fi, cable hookups for TV, a fine dining cafe, a beauty salon, and a spa, which makes things feel a bit more like home and gives people some choices in how they spend their time. The therapy team, working closely with doctors, sets up personalized rehab plans for every person, and anyone who needs physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, wound care, or even help for Parkinson's Disease can get targeted help. People find staff here who are certified, licensed, and have all sorts of roles, including Rehabilitation Coordinators, Dietary Managers, Recreation Directors, Social Workers, Wound Care Teams, and Medical Directors, so there's a real focus on teamwork and making sure needs don't fall through the cracks. People who need help with daily activities, like bathing or eating, can get assistance, and there are also support and referral services, so families can get advice or connect with extra help, and dentists, eye doctors, and podiatrists regularly visit. Active adults can live here too, since the campus supports all care levels and lets people age in place, moving between different types of care as their needs change, and families say the shared spaces, home-like feeling, and flexible care options make the adjustment easier, even though adjusting is always a process.
