Heidi's Haven Assisted Living Facility / Nursing Home - Fruitland Park sits at 36321 S Grays Airport Rd in Fruitland Park, Florida, in a quiet neighborhood with scenic views and a calm, peaceful atmosphere where you'll often see residents out on the screened lanai enjoying the lake view, and the set-up feels close to living at home since the main home usually houses four residents and the garage rooms have space for two more, so everyone gets personal attention and isn't lost in a crowd. The facility focuses on providing daily help with things like bathing, dressing, personal hygiene, grooming, medication management, and meal preparation, and the meals are usually personalized for each resident's needs, though sometimes it gets busy and the staff do the best they can with what they've got. Staff and nurses are trained, on-site all the time, with one nurse per four residents, sometimes staying overnight and then swapping shifts, so you can expect hands-on help day and night for routine needs, while the administrator stays involved and easy to talk to if something comes up.
There aren't any entry or admission fees, and all services-including supervision, assistance with daily and instrumental activities, light nursing care, memory care for Alzheimer's, dementia care, respite and hospice care, and even adult daycare and some home care services-are included in the daily or monthly fee, making it simpler for families to know what to expect each month. Transportation help might be available if someone needs to get to a doctor or run an errand, and since the house sits close to pharmacies, hospitals, and restaurants, that makes things handier for residents too. Activities like bingo and movie nights, on-site gatherings, and off-site devotional activities keep folks busy and offer chances for friendship and socializing, and devotional services are available outside the facility if that's something residents value.
Fully furnished private rooms give residents space to rest and decorate how they want to, making the space their own, and the interior is mostly spacious and clean, though with any house-based set-up there are limits to what's possible. The staff help monitor blood sugar and handle medication for those who need diabetic care, and each resident's care plan is tailored to fit individual health, wellness, and social needs. Residents with Alzheimer's or memory issues are accommodated, and the homelike environment helps make transitions, including for respite care, a little easier. All in all, Heidi's Haven in Fruitland Park aims for a family-centered, supportive community that balances independent living with as much or as little help as each resident needs, offering comfort and care in a small, neighborly setting without worrying about chores or maintenance.
