Marian Living Center

Marian Living Center, also known as Mercy Health - Marian Assisted Living Center, sits at 9802 Market St in North Lima, Ohio, right on a quiet, landscaped property with ponds and wooded land, and folks who live there get to enjoy walking paths, gardens, and outdoor spaces that help keep things peaceful and nice to look at. Marian Living Center offers independent living for older adults who want an easier life with less stress, and for those who need more help, there are assisted living and skilled nursing services with daily support for dressing, bathing, medication, and even transfers if someone's not steady on their feet, plus there's memory care for folks living with Alzheimer's or dementia, with special locked units to keep everyone safe and programs to ease anxiety and help maintain abilities. There's daily nursing care for 12-16 hours with a 24-hour call system and round-the-clock aides and licensed nurses, and if anyone needs more care, there's support for rehab, wound care, and post-acute recovery, including physical, occupational, and speech therapies every day, plus therapy equipment like oxygen, nebulizers, CPAP, and BiPAP. Rooms are fully furnished, with private baths, kitchenettes, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, cable TV, and phones, and options include studio setups, semi-private and one-bedroom apartments, all with emergency call systems and housekeeping and linen services handled by the staff. People can enjoy restaurant-style dining with menus for allergies or diabetes, as well as all-day meal service, so no one has to worry about going hungry, and the food is known to be good, plus there's a beauty salon, computer center, movie theater room, game and music programs, library, spa, and a fitness room, and the staff organizes regular activities, outings, and exercise groups, so there are always ways to stay busy or meet with others. For people who want engagement and social interaction, there's an activities department, scheduled daily programs, and even resident-run events, and for those who need help beyond daily living, there's respite care for families, plus support for those needing urgent care or specialty clinics, as the Marian Living Center operates as both an assisted living facility and skilled nursing home tied to Mercy Health, complete with experienced healthcare professionals and doctors. Care is tailored to each person, with help making care decisions and long-term plans, and since it's a Continuing Care Retirement Community, residents can stay as their needs change, which takes a lot of worry out of things if someone's care needs go up over time. Folks who've stayed there mention the staff is caring and committed, working hard to create a warm and comfortable place that feels homey instead of clinical. Covid-19 vaccinations happen on-site, but there's also a temporary quarantine unit if someone chooses not to vaccinate, and there's always someone to call if help is needed thanks to the 24-hour supervision and call system. With all the different services-independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care, and rehab-Marian Living Center's able to meet a range of senior needs, and while it gets a 3.7 out of 3 reviews, the place has a steady reputation for medical care, comfort, and a supportive environment for older adults who want health services wrapped up in a welcoming community.
