THE OHIO VETERANS HOMES

Located in Sandusky and Georgetown, Apply through our office or call the Ohio Veterans Home at 1-800-572-7934. Ohio

http://www.ohioveteranshome.gov

The  Ohio Veterans Home Agency is a State of Ohio establishment comprised of two facilities, a home located in Sandusky, Ohio (approximately 60 miles west of Cleveland) and a home located in Georgetown, Ohio (approximately 45 miles east of Cincinnati). The Georgetown Home is a licensed nursing home providing two levels of nursing care – standard care and special care (Alzheimer/ Dementia). The Sandusky Home, in addition to offering standard care and special care in its licensed nursing home, also offers Veterans Hall (DOM), a domiciliary for those who are able to function in an independent living situation, and DOM+ for those requiring very limited assistance (supervised care) but who do not require the level of care provided to nursing home residents.

Regardless of which level of care required, all residents have the freedom and convenience of a small community as well as the comforts of a home-like setting. The Ohio Veterans Home Agency offers a quality of life, which emphasizes privacy, encourages independence, provides comfort and security, and meets social needs.

Medina County has been awarded $32,500 from the Ohio Department of Development for the purpose of assisting Medina County Residents with needed home repairs.

Examples of these issues may include but are not limited to the following:

  • Structural deterioration: The collapse of a roof, foundation, floor or wall clearly represents a safety issue. The quick and thorough repair of this type of problem may save the integrity of the home
  • Mechanical failures: Any issue with the heating, plumbing and electrical system can cause immediate danger to the resident. These issues must be addressed as soon as possible so as not to compromise the health and safety of the occupant. Issues arising from mechanical failure can quickly escalate, i.e. furnace shut-down in frigid weather can cause water pipes to freeze and burse, etc.
  • Water or sewer tap-ins, well and septic system repairs and/or replacement. Water or sewer tap-ins may be completed through this activity if the applicant is eligible and there is a health or safety risk.
  • Accessibility Improvements: Accessibility improvements may be completed through this activity making the home handicapped accessible for the owner.
