Is Wesleyan Village licensed by the Ohio Department of Health?

What do Ohio inspection records show for Wesleyan Village?

The Consumer Guide lists 3 ODH licensure surveys for Wesleyan Village in the past four years, with 17 citations in total; the most recent, on July 14, 2026, found 2.

What do residents say about Wesleyan Village in Ohio's satisfaction survey?

Ohio has not published a 2025-2026 resident satisfaction score for Wesleyan Village; the state withholds a score when too few residents are eligible or respond, so the absence is not a negative finding on its own.

You can confirm the current status on the state's Long-Term Care Quality Navigator. Without a survey score, the inspection record above and a conversation with current residents' families carry more weight.

Does Wesleyan Village provide memory care?

Wesleyan Village's ODH license record registers Alzheimer's disease services, so ask for its written special care unit disclosure required under OAC 3701-16-07(F)(5) before you tour.

Ohio does not license or certify memory care separately, so the disclosure is the one document that spells out the unit's admission and discharge criteria, staff training, staffing, activities, extra costs and physical design. Compare it side by side with another community's. More on the disclosure rule.

How should a family evaluate Wesleyan Village?

With 261 licensed beds, Wesleyan Village is large enough that staffing can vary floor to floor and shift to shift. Ask for the caregiver-to-resident ratio on the specific wing your parent would live in, both day and overnight, and how many aides are awake after 11 p.m.

Wesleyan Village has been licensed since 1995, so ask what has been renovated recently, whether bathrooms are accessible for a walker or wheelchair, and whether any rooms are shared. Visit at least twice, once unannounced near a mealtime, and ask to speak with a current resident's family.

An ODH complaint can trigger the kind of complaint survey listed in the inspection record above.
