De Soto Elderly Care Facility, which first got licensed on August 22, 2017, operated as a small assisted living and memory care home, usually known by names like board and care home or residential care home, and you'd see they could take care of up to 6 elderly residents at a time, with room choices that included private rooms, private rooms with bathrooms, shared rooms, and sometimes a semi-private room too, and the place had things like air-conditioning, kitchenettes, private bathrooms, a toilet, a dining area, a living room, and nice exterior views, so seniors could have some comfort and a bit of choice in how they lived. The staff always had two caregivers on duty, giving round-the-clock supervision, and they offered support with daily needs-things like help with bathing and dressing (which people call ADLs), medication help, housekeeping, laundry, wellness programs, and organizing activities for both individuals and groups, and if someone needed help quick, there was a 24-hour call system.
The care there covered assisted living and specialized memory care for conditions like dementia, and depending on the situation, they sometimes offered respite care or hospice care for folks who needed it. The employees gave transportation help, with up to a 50-mile drive for doctor appointments without charging extra, and they'd arrange other rides if needed. Meals were made and served with organic food and ingredients, and they kept the living spaces clean, fully furnished, and simple to maintain, so nobody had to worry about cooking, cleaning, or housework. The residents had cable TV, phones, and internet access for communication or entertainment, and the whole place was set up to be safe and easy for older adults. De Soto Elderly Care Facility Inc. ran the property, and sometimes referred to special care programs or features by unique names, with a focus on what they called "The Right Care Right At Home."
Licensed as an assisted living facility, they kept compliance with regulations-during its operation, there were 3 inspection visits, 2 other visits, and no complaint visits found. The home mainly focused on the unique needs of the elderly, making it easier for people needing some help but not wanting to go somewhere big or unfamiliar, and that's about the honest shape of things at De Soto Elderly Care Facility, though it's closed at this time.
