Episcopal seeks state OK to move beds to Oakley

Episcopal Retirement Homes is seeking approval from the Ohio Department of Health to move beds from two existing nursing facilities into a proposed project at the Deupree House in Oakley.

Under the plan, 10 long-term care beds from Harrison Pavilion and 14 long-term care beds from the Blue Ash Care Center would be moved to two single-story, 12-bed cottages that Episcopal plans to build at 3999 Erie Avenue.

The application has already been submitted - with no objections - and there is no timeline for approval, though the application's due date was February 25, 2008.

The $7 million project was approved by City Council in late November.
