Vancrest has been a leader in providing health care for seniors for 65 years. It’s our mission To Deliver – whether that is Strength through therapy, Care from our dedicated staff, Fun with our activities, or Quality with our home health care. We Deliver!
Vancrest was founded in 1960 by Dr. E. E. White who opened one of Ohio’s first geriatric hospitals in the former Van Wert County Hospital. His vision was to deliver high-quality, person-centered care to a growing senior population — a mission that continues to guide us today through our C.A.R.E. values: Customer Focused, Attitude, Responsibility, and Empathy. Vancrest remains family-owned, led by Dr. White’s son Mark White, and continues to provide compassionate, community-based care close to home.
Today, Vancrest operates 13 combined assisted living and long-term care communities across western Ohio, serving more than 900 nursing residents and 350 assisted living residents.
We provide a seamless continuum of care through our integrated affiliates: Therapy Solutions — Physical, Occupational, and Speech therapy in our facilities and in your home. Fountain Park Home Care — Personalized, one-on-one care in the comfort of your home.
Through every chapter of our growth, one thing has remained constant — our passion for people and our promise to deliver C.A.R.E. to everyone we serve. We’re proud to be part of your communities, your families, and your lives.
