About Gardens of Scioto

Gardens of Scioto

Where the concept of community is still celebrated!

Some assisted living communities tout their facilities as resort-style living. At Gardens of Scioto, we prefer a warm, comfortable, familiar, secure atmosphere starting with our inviting front porch. When the time comes to choose an assisted living community, why not choose one that looks and feels like home? Gardens of Scioto is home to our residents. It's home with the advantage of on-site medical services, assistance with daily activities, value-added amenities, and the security & peace of mind that come with community living.

Residents are encouraged to participate in activities and outings, but we are also respectful of those who prefer a more solitary lifestyle. Our calendar is packed full of purpose-driven activities like arts, crafts, music, singing, theater, dance, reading, and storytelling. There is something for everyone from the individual to groups to families.

Capital Health Care Network is a leading provider of healthcare for seniors in Ohio and West Virginia.

We stand united as a family of providers working to achieve optimal healthcare outcomes and provide positive experiences for our clients.

We understand that our success depends on our team. We are proud of our highly skilled and compassionate team of healthcare professionals. They are dedicated to providing evidence-based care coupled with the newest technologies and state-of-the-art equipment. We are over 1500 team members strong. Many of our professionals have been with us for more than a decade. Their experience and commitment to senior care make what we do possible.

Capital Health Care Network is a continuum of care that includes home care agencies, assisted and independent living communities, skilled nursing centers, outpatient rehabilitation services, and hospice care. We pride ourselves on seamless transitional care and best practices between providers. We work with a number of referral partners outside of our own network to ensure that our residents and patients are able to live life to the fullest. Our continuity of services allows us to integrate across a variety of settings so that seniors can age on their own terms.

Senior Living

Our senior living communities are part of a larger healthcare system, called Capital Health Care Network, which offers a full continuum of care. Our vision is to lead the senior healthcare industry by providing solutions that help seniors age on their own terms. We know that all starts at home with senior housing.

We offer a wide array of affordable senior housing options from retirement communities including senior apartments and free-standing villas to assisted living communities where your loved one is ensured personalized care and attention.

Whether you're looking for an active senior living community to call home or it's time to consider assisted living services, we've got you covered.

Independent & Assisted Living

Independent Living

Capital Health Senior Living Where the Concept of Community is Still Celebrated

Our Senior Living Communities, The Villas of Scioto, Northtowne Senior Living, and Shiloh Gardens Senior Living are retirement communities where active seniors enjoy independent living and neighbors understand that 55 plus means aging in full bloom. Capital Health Care Network takes pride in providing independent living for seniors in safe, serene settings where the concept of community is still celebrated.

Independent living communities provide a solution for active seniors looking to enjoy a new phase of life with more leisure time, fewer chores, and freedom from the burden of home maintenance, yard work, and property taxes. Residents are either able to live fully independent or safely at home with some home care assistance. At Capital Health Care Network, we offer independent living for seniors as part of our continuum of care where residents have preferential access to our healthcare options, including home health care, assisted living, and skilled nursing communities, should they ever need them.

Choosing the Right Independent Living Community

Choosing the right retirement community, whether you are looking for free-standing villas that resemble single-family homes or senior apartment living, is a major decision. The same concerns that came into play when choosing previous homes still apply. It is important to find the right home, in the right neighborhood at the right price. You will also want to be sure to find the right services and amenities with provisions for the possibility of future healthcare needs.

    Is the community conveniently located with nearby shopping, banking, etc?
    Is the community easy to access so that family and friends can visit?
    Does the community provide a sense of trust and security? Do you feel safe?
    Does the community offer an array of engaging activities?
    Is the community adequate in terms of space, storage, parking, etc?
    Is the community affordable?
    Is the community part of a larger continuum with provisions for future healthcare needs?

Tour to Be Sure

Capital Health Care Network encourages and welcomes tours both scheduled and unscheduled. Touring a senior living community at different times of day provides a truer, more comprehensive view of how things work within the community. Pay special attention to how the staff and residents interact. Do folks seem to be on a first-name basis with one another? Do they seem to like one another? Does there seem to be a sense of community amongst the residents? Do not hesitate to ask questions as they occur to you. Touring will help you be more in the know and feel better prepared to make your move to retirement living.

Please call to schedule a tour or to learn more about our affordable retirement living communities at The Villas of Scioto in Obetz, OH,  Northtowne Senior Living in Newark, Ohio, or Shiloh Gardens Senior Living in Trotwood, OH. Our residents appreciate the ease of maintenance-free living in country-like surroundings complete with mature trees and plenty of green space.

Assisted Living

Where the Concept of Community is Still Celebrated!

Our senior assisted living communities, the Gardens of Scioto and Carriage House offer assisted living services in affordable communities that are housed on larger healthcare campuses providing a full continuum of care.

Our two communities are staffed by friendly, respectful, experienced, and vetted healthcare professionals. Those professionals work with residents and families to customize care and attention. We understand that it's our responsibility to know each of our residents so that we can map out daily routines, events, and activities that mesh with their individual needs and preferences.

Other assisted living communities tout their facilities as resort-style living. At Capital Health Care Network, we prefer our communities to be warm, inviting, comfortable, familiar, secure senior homes. 

Nursing & Rehabilitation Centers

Helping Seniors Age on Their Own Terms.

Our skilled nursing services consist of an interdisciplinary team approach focused on the individual needs of our patients and residents. At Capital Health Care Network we pride ourselves on delivering quality care each and every day to those patients and residents we are privileged to serve.
