Westerwood is all about you and how you want to live.

As we embark on our next 40 years, Westerwood has begun a campus-wide transformation that will add new amenities and living options to elevate the quality of experience and quality of care. But what won’t change is our mission: We are deeply rooted in friendship, purpose, and peace of mind.

While our name has changed, our commitment to delivering the best in senior living in Columbus and Westerville, Ohio, continues. We still have the same stellar Board, leadership, and teams in place, many of whom have been with our community for many years. This continuity of experience will bridge the best of the past with the wonderful additions to come.

Our campus is a transformational place where those aged 62 or better can grow, flourish and create life the way they want it. Here, you’ll have many opportunities to pursue what’s most important to you. Best of all, everything you want is just steps from your door, making participation easy. Imagine a walkable, wooded campus with its own nature preserve. Delightful dining when and how you want it. Nine exercise classes daily. Fully appointed arts studio and woodshop and more than 120 on-campus events each year.

Our close ties with the Westerville Community Center offer residents access to entertainment, education and amenities, including an indoor swimming pool, miles of trails and a whole host of community events. As a resident, you get access to Lifelong Learning at Otterbein University with a yearlong menu of academic events, mini-courses and day trips with Otterbein faculty.

Those who want to become more involved in our community can join our Residents’ Association, where you’ll have a say in what community life is like at Westerwood.

Westerwood offers independent living apartments, assisted living apartments and suites, memory care, short-term rehabilitation, and long-term care, all under one roof. Plus, it is the only community to offer a Flexible Lifestyle Program designed for snowbirds and those who want to live here without giving up traveling.

Each neighborhood on our campus is easily accessible through a single connective corridor known as Main Street. Besides serving as the primary avenue throughout our community, Main Street also features access to a bank, coffee and soda shop, library, computer center, salon, general store, fitness center, arts studio, woodworking shop, and billiards room. Under consideration are a number of new amenities, including a dog park, bocce ball and pickleball courts, fire pit, and more.

Westerwood takes pride in being a progressive and welcoming senior living retirement community. While we are Methodist-based and offer spiritual activities and support, we are open to people of all faiths and beliefs. We take particular care to make the rights of marginalized older adults a priority and provide a safe place for all people to live their life to the fullest.
