Stay Healthy at Home
A healthcare safety net steps away
Going back and forth to the hospital or emergency room is a disruptive way of life. We strive to provide more healthy days at home. That is why, at Ohman Family Living at Briar, we have developed our medical specializations around health conditions that most often lead to a hospitalization.
“It is a very nice and clean place to live, and everyone is so friendly and helpful. It is also nice to be so close to your loved ones. I really love the Amish buggies and the quiet town.”
Maude Ferris

Ben Garlich

Jane Butterfield
Daughter of Independent Living Resident
“Living in Middlefield has been so pleasant for me. It’s big enough to get what you want but compact enough that I can often walk to where I want, like a bank or a restaurant. Another thing I love about living at Ohman Family Living at Briar is that the lawn is taken care of, as well as the snow removal. It is done so efficiently and on time that I don’t have to worry about it.”
