At Crystal Care Center we surround our resident with love, kindness and laughter.  Our Chaplain program has helped us achieve this goal. Crystal Care Centers are the only private owned facilities in the area to employee a full time chaplain to care for the spiritual needs our residents, families and staff.

    Teamwork and caring are just some of the wonderful skills found in the nursing department at Crystal Care Center.  Our staff of nurses and nursing assistants creates an environment of positive self-image, health and wellness. Our team of expert nurses individually works with each resident and their family to set goals that the resident can achieve. Working closely with the physicians, therapists and other healthcare members a plan of care is created to improve the quality of life for that resident. We offer a full range of therapies to include physical, occupational and speech therapies.  Our full time in house therapy team promotes independence for our residents, many of whom come for short term rehab care and then return home. Crystal Care Centers are both Medicare/ Medicaid approved and accept many private pay insurance companies. Our staff to patient ratio remains the best in the county to ensure our residents are well cared for. Crystal Care Center nursing staff provides expert wound care, IV therapy and skilled nursing services.

     At Crystal Care Centers we believe the people we serve in our centers require loving and dedicated care.   This dedication to care is what is found in all of our facilities located in Ashland, Mansfield & Portsmouth.   The staff who provide the care in our facilities do so with a sense of teamwork that has made Crystal Care Centers among the most respected in their field.

    Crystal Care Center is locally owned and operated by health professionals with over 25 years of experience. This experience gives the facility the insight to understand the needs of the residents and affords them the best possible care.     Jerry Smith, formed Crystal Care Centers in 1992.  Jerry has been a licensed Nursing Home Administrator since 1979. During his tenure, he has served as Administrator, Consultant, and Regional V.P. with major national companies.    After becoming disenchanted with the philosophy of corporate management, Jerry made the decision to form his own company where he would put the residents first.      Crystal Care Center of Mansfield was purchased in January 1993, followed by Crystal Care Center of Portsmouth in March of 1993 and Crystal Care Center of Ashland in 2002.  His wife Susan, daughters Kyann, Mindy and Jennifer along with “Butch”& Tony Clark, Kim Nye and Kathy Kolesar are all active shareholders.      Currently, the Crystal Care family collectively employs over 300 personnel including doctors, nurses and other professionals and support staff.  The Residents and Staff of Crystal Care Centers remain the focus of the Smith’s attention, as was the goal from the beginning!    The Crystal Care facilities have grown within the past two years to become a 74 bed skilled nursing facility in Mansfield and a 72 bed skilled nursing facility in Ashland.  Our belief is growing older should include being treated with dignity and respect along with living in a homelike environment.  With this in mind all of our new rooms are private.  Added to the private rooms that were already in each center, Crystal Care Center of Mansfield now offers 56 private rooms and Crystal Care Center of Ashland now offers 42 private rooms.     Even though the care in our facilities rank within the highest in the state, because we are family owned and operated we are able to keep our daily rates among the lowest in the counties we serve.    Crystal Care continues to follow our residents after discharge with a new Outpatient Therapy department in our Ashland Center, our in home care company Crystal Care Companions and new to our family, Maria Manor, a Crystal Care Senior Independent Living Community located in Lexington, Ohio.
