Understanding Ohio's Senior Housing Licensing Framework
Ohio licenses both Residential Care Facilities (RCFs) and Assisted Living Facilities through ODH based on the level of care provided. The COO process includes application, background checks, and a facility survey. Processing typically takes 75–105 days. Haven manages all ODH requirements to protect occupancy through the transition.
Haven's advisory team guides buyers and sellers through every stage of the Ohio Department of Health (ODH) change-of-ownership process, ensuring no surprises derail your transaction timeline.
