Dees Foster Care sits in Michigan and has offered adult foster care for 41 years under the care of Ms. Dorothy "Dee" Nightingale-Stephens. Residents can pick from different apartment styles, including studios, one-bedroom units, shared rooms, and private suites, with private bathrooms and air-conditioning in each space. The living areas come fully furnished, with kitchenettes, cable TV, a homey look, and an in-room pull cord for safety. Dementia and Alzheimer's care is offered, and staff give help with daily tasks like bathing, toileting, dressing, and transfers, with spoon feeding and specialized care as needed. Every month, a licensed nurse does a complete assessment for each resident, and medication management is available. There's help with moving in, housekeeping, laundry, plus scheduled meals and menu choices for allergies and diabetes, and residents don't have to worry about regular cleaning or cooking.
The building includes walking paths, porches, a community kitchen, dining room, gardens, and plenty of sitting areas, and there's a pet-friendly policy. Residents have access to high-definition TVs, the internet, telephones, a library, and a computer room. Fitness programs, a workout room, preventive health screenings, and therapy rooms are available for rehabilitation services like speech, occupational, and physical therapy. There's 24/7 support, licensed assisted living, and care is coordinated with health providers if someone needs it. Activities include trips, picnics, birthday and holiday parties, outings for residents and families, and hobby groups. Staff will take care of apartment and grounds maintenance, and they help with transportation to medical appointments or off-site events. The facility provides memory care, assisted living, and senior living with three senior apartments and a variety of support levels, with adult foster care overseen and licensed by the State of Michigan under license number AF110000644.
