What to Consider About Assisted Living in Powell

The Ohio Department of Health’s Bureau of Regulatory Operations licenses assisted living facilities in Powell and elsewhere in the state. The team monitors communities to ensure they comply with rules and regulations and investigates complaints about services, caregivers and policies.  

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Powell

 

 

 

  • Concerning County Health Rankings, Delaware County is number one of 88 ranked counties statewide, scoring highly for health outcomes and health factors. Fewer residents experience poor physical or mental health days compared with state and national averages, and the county offers 10% more exercise opportunities than average.

 

  • Scoring 61 on AARP’s Livability Index, 13 points higher than the average U.S. city, Powell is among the top 50% of communities nationwide. Pertinent to seniors, ratings stand out for social, cultural and public engagement, the environment and health. However, the city scores unfavorably for housing primarily due to high costs and accessibility. That said, assisted living communities typically feature accessible layouts with caregivers to assist seniors with ambulation, transferring and other daily activities.

 

  • In keeping with its high livability score, Delaware County joined AARP’s Age-Friendly Network in 2018, reflecting its desire to improve living conditions for everyone. The county action plan includes greater access to personalized transportation options for seniors, fall prevention initiatives and the creation of more affordable senior housing.

 

  • Living costs in Powell are typically almost 12% higher than the U.S. average and about 29.2% higher than Michigan’s average expenses. Housing costs significantly impact these figures, with renters generally paying slightly less than the national median while homeowners pay at least 110% more. These numbers are particularly relevant as about 93.6% of Powell’s residents own their homes. However, Ohio Medicaid’s Home- and Community-Based Services Waiver programs may help cover partial assisted living costs for seniors with limited financial resources.  

 

  • Statistically, Powell offers a safer living environment than 65% of other communities nationwide, with lower-than-average violent and property crime rates.
