About First Community Village Healthcare Ctr

+
Situated at 1800 Riverside Drive along the scenic Scioto River corridor, First Community Village Healthcare Center occupies one of Columbus's most picturesque and storied settings. As a nonprofit corporation, First Community Village operates with a mission-driven commitment to serving older adults with integrity, excellence, and deep community roots — free from the profit pressures that shape many other care organizations. The Riverside Drive location places residents at the heart of some of Columbus's most beloved neighborhoods. Upper Arlington, immediately to the west, is one of the metro area's most desirable communities, known for its beautiful tree-lined streets, excellent parks, and strong civic identity. Grandview Heights and Marble Cliff lie just to the south and east, adding to the cultured, walkable character of the surrounding area. The Scioto River itself provides a naturally beautiful backdrop, and Griggs Reservoir and Dam — a favorite destination for walkers, cyclists, and nature lovers — is practically at the community's doorstep. Hayden Falls Park in adjacent Dublin offers additional natural beauty for family visits. Medically, few locations in Columbus are better positioned. OhioHealth Riverside Methodist Hospital, one of the largest and most comprehensive hospitals in central Ohio and a major academic medical center, is mere minutes away on Olentangy River Road. This proximity enables rapid care coordination and gives families confidence that specialized medical attention is always close at hand. First Community Village Healthcare Center provides skilled nursing care including post-acute rehabilitation, long-term nursing, memory support, and palliative care. The facility's nonprofit status means that resources are reinvested directly into resident care, staffing, and the environment — reflecting the organization's genuine commitment to quality over revenue. For families in Upper Arlington, Grandview Heights, Clintonville, and surrounding west Columbus neighborhoods, First Community Village is a trusted institution with decades of service to the Columbus community.
