Life at Otterbein Pemberville

Lifestyle Choices & Types of Care

There are choices galore at Otterbein Pemberville – whether you’re looking for independent living or nursing care, we’ve got a living space to suit your needs, all conveniently located on our beautiful campus.

Lifestyle Choices

At Otterbein Pemberville, our charming community of all brick ranch-style private villas combines personal space with social opportunities, where you can enjoy a comfortable, gracious lifestyle on friendly, scenic streets.

Our independent living homes come in four spacious floor plans, all with attached oversized garages, and many have all-season sunrooms. They come unfurnished, offering you plenty of space for your belongings.

If you prefer independent living in an apartment, Otterbein Pemberville features a variety of floor plans, all of which are connected to our main building. That way, you’re right where the action is, no matter what the weather is doing outside.

Our specially-designed and furnished assisted living suites, which open into the main building, include large one-bedroom apartments with kitchenettes and spacious studios. Creative residents find plenty of ways to personalize their spaces and whichever apartment you choose, you’ll enjoy a caring and attentive environment with nurses available 24/7.

If you need a little more attention, our nursing care shared and private suites put your health and comfort above all else. But rest assured, you’ll have plenty of independence when it comes to what you want to do. Tell us what you want, and we’ll build a schedule around you!

Care Services

At Otterbein Pemberville, formerly known as Otterbein Portage Valley, we believe in keeping you in the best of health, so we offer wellness support for independent living. Because we are a continuing care community, we also have assisted living services to keep you enjoying life as comfortably as possible, along with skilled nursing, rehabilitative care and transitional care.

For residents with dementia, we have memory support and respite care for caregivers.

At Otterbein, continuous life enrichment is one of our core values, so every Pemberville resident meets with an activities counselor to create a plan for personal development for your physical, spiritual, intellectual, social, emotional, and vocational well-being. We want to give you every opportunity to be the best you!
