Waltonwood Main sits in Rochester Hills, Michigan, next to a shopping plaza, parks, and a nature reserve with trails, and has a Victorian-style look with turrets, gabled roofs, landscaped grounds, and a welcoming porch, so folks come here and find a safe, gated community with one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and studio apartments, each with kitchenettes, emergency call systems, large print climate controls, shower benches, and handrails for safety, plus granite countertops and elegant cabinets if you like to cook a bit, and spacious closets for easy storage, and you'll see rooms with personalized ledges, letting things feel a bit more like home. The main idea behind Waltonwood Main is to let people move easily from independent living to assisted living or memory care, since all care levels happen on the same campus, and there's staff around the clock to help with daily things like bathing, dressing, medication, and walking.
The staff is certified and trained in things like memory care for people with Alzheimer's or other dementias, with special care to keep folks comfortable and prevent wandering, and they work day and night, with a nurse manager on site (part-time) to oversee service plans. Parents, spouses, and loved ones who need help but still want some independence find help with things like hydration, snacks, meals brought to rooms, bathing help, and medication monitoring, plus extras like laundry, bed making, and housekeeping, so residents get a lot of little details handled for them, and there's medical support with access to an on-call doctor, podiatry visits, and incontinence care too, and the skilled nursing part takes care of those who need bigger support, while respite care lets folks stay a short while when needed.
Waltonwood Main makes time for fun, so you'll find bingo games, bible studies, trivia events, Wheel of Fortune, morning stretches, word memory games, and even things like craft rooms, gardening, car photo contests, golf putting contests, and bus trips, plus dancing lessons, so there's always some way to meet new people or stay busy, and the Life Enrichment Program sorts out the calendar, giving folks social, fitness, and cultural things to do every week. Inside, residents eat in a restaurant-style dining room with good food, and if it's a celebration, the café and common areas get decorated for occasions like Valentine's Day, which can feel welcoming for folks who miss holiday gatherings, and there are spots like a billiards and game room in Memory Care, a cozy library, a hair salon and barber, and a movie theater for movie nights, and computers are handy if someone needs them.
Outside, you can sit on the patio with wicker chairs, walk in the garden, or be with friends or family at the courtyard or gazebo, and if visitors need to park, there's a parking lot. Apartments get maintenance, so things work as they should, and there's help coordinating care with outside doctors if it's needed. Some folks like that Waltonwood Main is family-owned and has a close, supportive environment where residents' dignity, safety, and happiness matter none of that high-pressure talk-just a caring, attentive team that tries to treat everyone well, keeping families included in daily life. Waltonwood Main offers a mix of independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing, and because the building and programs are set up for all those changing needs, people can age in place and know if they need more help later, someone's there. Tours run weekdays and by appointment on weekends, giving a chance to see the place, visit the dining room, and get a sense for the comfortable, relaxed life that folks can expect here, with no big fuss-just a lot of care and small comforts in a home-like setting.
