Passion and Caring Home sits in Detroit, Michigan, with another site in Southfield, and provides care for people aged 60 and older, though they might accept some folks aged 55 to 59 on a case-by-case basis, and the place has been running since 2003, so it's had time to build up experience. The community offers both assisted living and memory care, with staff present day and night to help with things like bathing, dressing, medication, and more, and there's even a psychiatric nurse and various doctors who visit in-house, so residents don't always have to travel out for healthcare needs, which can be a relief for many families. Residents can get help with diabetes, get blood work checked, see a podiatrist, physical therapist, occupational therapist, and even a dental tech or ophthalmologist without leaving the building, and services like incontinence care and renal care are available as well, and the place helps with VA benefits too, providing support for those who qualify.
The home pays attention to mental health, offering both psychiatric nursing and mental health care, and organizes outings, spiritual services through different church groups, and music nights, which seems to keep the calendar pretty full, not to mention game nights, movies, and arts and crafts, and people often join into resident music groups or activities in indoor common areas, on patios, or out in the garden. Meals come cooked in-house with options for vegetarians, low-sodium, or no-sugar diets, and snacks are available, so residents eat well, and there's a community dining space so people can socialize if they wish. Rooms have Wi-Fi and they come either private or semi-private, and there's laundry and linen service, routine housekeeping, and even dry cleaning, so the day-to-day chores don't pile up on anyone.
The setting has walking paths, outdoor spaces, a library, a barber or salon, and planned activities that go into the neighborhood parks or local spots like Walgreens, McDonald's, Tim Hortons, and nearby churches, which might make errands and visits easier for families and residents. The community's recognized for being clean and well-kept, and the staff, managed by Gena Payne, RN, BSN, who has a background in gerontology and psychiatry, check references and get ethics training, aiming to make sure care stays professional and personal.
Passion and Caring Home holds a state license and meets BBB Standards for Trust with an A+ rating.
