Lifestyle Choices & Types of Care

Lifestyle Options

Our modern independent living homes on the shores of Grand Lake St. Marys are available in several spacious floor plans and are safe and comfortable with 24-hour call systems. Our patio homes range from studios to large two bedrooms, and our ranch-style homes, complete with sunrooms, go up to four bedrooms.

If you prefer independent living but don’t want to worry about traveling to the campus center, Otterbein St. Marys has a variety of apartment options to choose from. There are indoor and outdoor entrances, meaning you’re just steps away from everything with call systems to keep you safe.

If you need a little more one-on-one care but still want your independence, our assisted living suites are for you. You can enjoy a spacious, personalized living area and still have access to nurses 24/7.

Your health is our top priority and with our shared or private nursing care suites, you get access to the best skilled care. At Otterbein, everything is personalized, so you get to do what you want and when — for example, if you take your coffee at 10 a.m. every day, we’ll bring it to you right on time.
