Elmwood Assisted Living at The Shawhan – Tiffin

Originally built in 1904, The Shawhan Hotel was one of Ohio’s finest hotels. It housed fancy dinners and elegant parties in the Emerald Room and gave business owners a prime location on East Perry Street.

Renovations began in 1996 to restore this gracious building. It was reopened in 1999 as an assisted living community. Purchased by Elmwood in 2001, it became Elmwood Assisted Living at The Shawhan, part of the Elmwood family of healthcare communities.

Once again an anchor of the downtown, our 53-suite / 66-bed assisted living community is warm and welcoming. Classic and timeless décor adorns the many living rooms, parlors, and libraries with fireplaces, perfect settings for visiting with family and friends. Residents and their guests may also enjoy elegant dining rooms, a solarium and court yard, ice cream parlor, chapel, beauty shoppe and community room.

Elmwood at The Shawhan is unlike most other assisted living facilities in many ways. The main feature that sets us apart is our 24-hour professional nursing, which provides peace of mind and reassurance to our residents and their families. Another is our Reminiscence Neighborhood, which is home to residents with Alzheimer’s disease and other memory impairments. Exceptional care in gracious surroundings is what Elmwood is all about.

Licensed by the State of Ohio as a 53-suite / 66-bed Residential Care Facility, The Shawhan is a member of Assisted Living Federation of America, Ohio Assisted Living Association, and the Tiffin Area Chamber of Commerce.

Elmwood Assisted Living at The Shawhan is currently certified by the Ohio Department of Aging to provide basic assisted living services and memory care service and is currently accepting referrals for individuals who are enrolling in the Medicaid waiver program or My Care Ohio. Certain limitations may apply.
