Otterbein Franklin SeniorLife Community (formally know as Franklin United Methodist Community) opened its doors in 1957 as a continuing care retirement community that provides a variety of living options and care choices for retired persons. The long-standing traditions and standards of the United Methodist Church remain a part of our community; however residency is open to persons of all faiths and denominations.

🏡 What does assisted living actually look like?

It's customized. Always. Here's how:

Morning Assistance:

🔹 Help selecting clothes for weather
🔹 Shower safety support

Evening Assistance:
🔹 Afternoon medication management
🔹 Evening shower assistance
🔹 Bedtime routine support

Personalized care. Because there's no such thing as one-size-fits-all aging.
