I recently completed a 15-day stay at Otterbein Rehabilitation following a total knee replacement, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. At 75 years old, I was concerned about the recovery process, but the care I received was truly world-class. Thanks to the expertise of the PT and OT teams, as well as the dedicated nursing and support staff, I graduated from a walker to a cane in just over two weeks. The staff's professionalism and encouragement were instrumental in my progress. My physical therapists say I should walk unassisted after a few weeks at outpatient Athletico. I am deeply grateful for the healing I have experienced and would rate Otterbein well beyond five stars if I could. They are an outstanding team of professionals.

This campus is smaller, 5 ,,,individual houses with up to 12 residents. The Aides are overworked because management is hiring 17-year-olds who cannot touch the machines used to transfer us . The care is there just delayed. Overall this facility is not perfect, but very nice. Good care, good food and good friends! Everyone is welcomed and respected upon arrival.

My Mom was at Otterbein for 3 months after suffering a stroke. She didn't want to leave, even to move closer to home! She felt very comfortable there and really got to know the staff and other residents well. We loved the unique setup with the central rehab/dining/living/learning area and rooms along the perimeter (ensuring all residents had lots of natural light). The nurses, therapists, aides and all staff were very personable and really got to know my Mom and all of her frequent visitors. We truly felt they cared about us, Mom and all her loved ones. One of the therapists even took the time to visit Mom in her new facility which meant a lot. Would highly recommend to any families looking for similar rehabilitation/skilled nursing services for their loved ones.

The staff has been amazing from the moment my Aunt was sent there up to the present day. They are always available to answer questions and are very responsive to our concerns. The ADON/MDS nurse has been very helpful to my family, being available through the questionable times. This is a great place for a family to send their loved one. They truly cater to not only the resident but the family as well. Our family truly appreciates all they have done and continue to do for our Aunt.
