House of Grace has a range of care for older adults, whether someone wants independent living with some resort-style features and social activities, or they need a higher level of help with daily needs, memory care, or skilled nursing. The community sits in a residential neighborhood with plenty of trees and greenery, and it's designed to feel home-like and comfortable, offering both smaller settings for up to six people and a larger residential care home with 20 beds. There are board and care homes such as Dawn's Center For Seniors, Guardian Angel Adult Family Home, Karen's Kare House, The Gardens AFCF, LLC, Kalb's AFC Home II, Bonnie Villa, Family Home and Senior's Living, Integrity Care, Clinton Meadows, Our Place Senior Assisted Living, Moravian Manor II, and Affectionate Care 5, which all provide daily care and support in quiet neighborhoods.
Staff help with bathing, dressing, grooming, medication management, and meals, and keep an eye on people around the clock, with a nurse on site and a doctor on call. They offer memory care for people with dementia or Alzheimer's, with secure buildings meant to prevent wandering, a bracelet alarm system, behavioral support for those who may act out, and therapy and activities to keep minds active. The staff use reminders and monitoring technologies that help keep people safe if they have trouble with memory or try to leave the area, and they have equipment for lifts and transfers if someone needs extra assistance.
Meals can be customized to be kosher or vegetarian, plus snacks are offered every day. There's help for diabetes, including blood sugar checks and insulin injections, as well as fall protection, incontinent care, support with hospice, and high acuity needs. Common and private spaces are wheelchair accessible, with showers, tubs, indoor living rooms, and secure outdoor courtyards for visiting and relaxing. Residents can bring favorite things from home to decorate their rooms, and there are structured activities like trivia, art classes, movie gatherings, devotional services, and outings offsite, plus bi-weekly beautician services and a beauty salon. Full-time activity directors run social and life enrichment programs.
House of Grace helps families understand the choices involved in long-term care and guides them with independent assessments and personalized care plans. There's support for those moving from their own homes into assisted living or memory care, as well as respite care and support for caregivers. They have guest meal services, allow cats and dogs, and have transportation available for doctor appointments or activities, though there may be a fee for some rides. The staff help with daily living, medical needs, medication, and personal care, always focusing on keeping each resident as independent as possible for as long as possible.
