Beverly Hills Residential Center sits in Beverly Hills, Michigan, and provides care in a small, homelike setting for up to six adults, which can make things feel more personal and comfortable, especially for those who might not like big crowds or big places, and the team there is ready to help people with all sorts of needs, including those with traumatic brain injury, developmental disabilities, physical handicaps, mental illness, Alzheimer's, and folks who just need a little extra help as they age or go through changes in how much they can do on their own, so you'll see different certifications for care, like for people with brain injuries or developmental differences, and the care's pretty hands-on, with staff helping out day and night with things like getting dressed, bathing, managing medicine, and moving around, plus the home's all set up to make it easier if you use a wheelchair or if walking's tricky.
The house has several places to relax, including a main dining room where meals come prepared for different needs, and folks can grab a snack at the little bistro area, and there's even new tablet technology so staff can be sure every meal matches what each person likes and needs for their health, and suites come in different layouts-there are studios, one-bedrooms, two-bedrooms, and options for sharing with a companion, each one having its own emergency response system and Wi-Fi, which can be handy for staying in touch or just passing the time, plus residents can bring their pets, which plenty of people appreciate because it makes the place feel even more like home.
There's a steady calendar of activities, so most days you'll find something going on, like arts and crafts, fitness classes, or trips out to local restaurants and stores, and staff can help get you to and from doctor visits or outings, and sometimes the group goes out together for entertainment or to see the sights nearby. Common areas include sitting rooms, walking paths, a garden spot, and a beauty salon, and all rooms are furnished, but folks can add touches to make it their own, and laundry and housekeeping come with the package, as do emergency alert systems throughout.
The facility offers care at different levels-some people need only small bits of help, while others need more, so it's set up for assisted living, independent living, memory care, and help for people who need nursing care, and it can even provide help for a short-term stay if a family caregiver needs a break. They work on keeping families informed with a family engagement app, and they say they plan for move-ins, coordinate with doctors, and welcome relatives and friends for visits. People can take tours to see the building and meet staff or residents, and there's a "Family Advisor" service to answer questions and help make plans if someone's thinking about moving in, and everything is part of the larger Caring network that gives extra guidance for senior living. The overall aim is to make sure everyone feels safe, cared for, and included, with attention to what makes each person comfortable and part of a community, and, being a licensed Adult Foster Care home, Beverly Hills Residential Center holds to a recognized standard of care, so families can have some peace of mind.
