SERENITY HOMES

Serenity Homes gives seniors a place where they can move in and know that as their needs change, they don't have to move again, because there are all sorts of care levels from independent living to full skilled nursing, and there are apartment suites for people who want more privacy as well as shared spaces for those who like a bit of company, and the place has these small residential homes, sometimes called board and care homes, where just a few folks live together and get daily help from staff, which makes it more homelike for people who don't want a big community. There's help for people who need assisted living, with staff who help with daily things like getting dressed, taking medicine, meals, and the kind of personal care some folks start to need. For people who live with memory problems from Alzheimer's or dementia, the memory care communities have special programs, secure areas, and activities meant to help with memory, and staff are there around the clock, so families know their loved ones have support. The independent living setup's got things for seniors who can handle most things on their own but want a place where chores like yard work and repairs are handled, and social things are planned, so folks can join in if they want, like recreation and common spaces to relax or meet others. If someone's health gets worse, there's access to skilled nursing, including medical support all hours, plus wound care, rehab, and extra help for complex needs. All these services-including the memory care, assisted living, and independent living-carry names and features specific to Serenity Homes, though those names aren't listed here. The community sits in a quiet area of Grand Rapids, MI, and there are parks, cafes, restaurants, and pharmacies close by, along with hospitals and places of worship, so people and families still have things to do offsite if they're able. The whole place is set up to help seniors stay as independent as possible, while still having assistance on hand, and the staff aim to make it comfortable, engaging, and safe, with programs and amenities, even if the exact details aren't listed, and everything's built around meeting residents' real needs as they age.
