Welcome to Canal Winchester
Canal Winchester has long been known as a close-knit community with a strong heritage of farming and family values. When The MacIntosh Company decided to build a new community in the heart of Canal Winchester, we wanted the outside, as well as the inside, to reflect those values.
This gorgeous community is nestled on 7.5 acres off Gender Road with convenient access to shopping necessities as well as the charm of downtown Canal Winchester. As a company, we provide housing and healthcare for older adults based on trust, integrity, dependability and compassion.
Our community focuses on assisted living and short-term rehabilitative care while offering a continuum of services. That continuum includes skilled nursing post-hospital rehabilitation, outpatient rehabilitation, respite care and long-term care.

Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation
Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation at Canal Winchester offers post-hospital, outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation services in the central Ohio area. If you have recently been discharged from the hospital or have suffered a health setback, we’re here to help you with your recovery.
Your goals are our goals. After an initial assessment upon admission, we’ll work with you to determine how best to support independence, mobility and self-care. You’ll be able to leave here with a renewed sense of self-confidence and an improved level of function.
Our rehabilitation wing offers a comfortable, friendly environment with well-appointed accommodations and furnished private rooms, all equipped with full baths including walk-in showers, basic cable services and Wi-Fi. We offer physical, occupational and speech therapies, as well as a wide variety of services, amenities and programs.
Those with managed care insurance plans may have coverage for a skilled nursing and rehabilitation stay at one of our communities. It’s best to contact your insurance provider directly for those details, but we can also help you navigate your benefits.
Respite Care
Respite care can be defined as a short-term stay for a loved one to allow a respite, or recovery time, for the caregiver. Some of the reasons a caregiver might seek a respite care stay for their loved one include a planned surgery, vacation, or needed time to manage their stress and personal health and well-being.
Respite Care at Canal Winchester offers short-term stays that can vary from a few days to a few weeks. We provide furnished respite suites in both our skilled nursing and assisted living levels of care. Your loved one will have access to a nursing team 24 hours a day, with a personalized plan of care.
Respite-stay guests at Canal Winchester receive the same patient-directed care as our residents. This includes a compassionate interdisciplinary team that ensures their individual needs are met as well as access to numerous services, activities and amenities.
It’s typically best to plan ahead for a respite care stay, but we understand that it’s not always possible. If an urgent need arises, feel free to contact us to check our availability.
Long-Term Care
When a senior can no longer stay safely at home or needs more help than assisted living can provide, long-term care services can help. Long-Term Care at Canal Winchester offers skilled nursing and long-term care for Ohio seniors as part of our continuum of care.
We care for your loved one like you would, with patient-directed care and a personalized approach. Each resident receives the support and care they need from a professional and welcoming staff. You’ll be kept in the loop with care conferences and are welcome to visit anytime with 24-hour visitation.
As with any Canal Winchester resident, your loved one can also enjoy our dining program, services, amenities and activities.
Dining

Amenities, Hospitality and Activities
There are many assisted living communities and rehabilitation centers in central Ohio, but few can offer the same level of hospitality and amenities available at Canal Winchester. Because our executive leadership, nursing and care community staff live in central Ohio, our hospitality is warm, welcoming and local.

Our Quality Measures Up
Our goal is to provide personalized, uncompromised healthcare. To accomplish that, we hold ourselves to high standards. Our quality measures are based on feedback from our rehabilitation guests, residents and families, as well as criteria established by the Ohio Department of Health and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
As a new community, Canal Winchester will not have posted surveys and ratings until at least one year after opening, but please check other MacIntosh Company communities to see how our quality consistently meets and exceeds standards.
The benefit of Canal Winchester is that if your healthcare needs change, the community offers a continuum of care options under one roof, including skilled nursing, short-term rehabilitation, long-term care and even outpatient rehabilitation close to home. Find peace of mind knowing extra help is available, provided by staff you know in familiar surroundings.
