Please to not send your loved ones to this facility. I will be filing a formal complaint with The Ohio Department of Health and taking any other necessary steps to get this placed looked into. I would not allow an animal to live in these conditions. Do not let the main entrance fool you, the conditions of these rooms are terrible.

My brother was placed in Woods Edge 17 years ago. It was a very nice, clean, attentive, caring and professional place. The food was good and nutritional. The Christmas parties were fabulous. They had their own transportation which they used to take the patients on outings to Walmart and out to dinner. Over the last 8 years it has become the pits. His clothes, shoes, and personal items come up missing. The elevator stinks of urine and the entire second floor (Secure Unit )is filthy and stinks of feces and urine. The food is pure slop. They can't keep an administrator or aids. At one point they had no one to cook, clean, or do laundry. Staff turnover is a constant. My brother did not receive proper medical care on two occasions and had to be hospitalized. If you care about your love one, stay clear of the second floor unit. I am now in the process of removing him due to neglect and the above conditions. March 24, 2025.
