Woodward Group Home sits on 0.83 acres with a ranch-style house built back in 1988, and the place has a composition roof, attached garage for two cars, and a nice mix of patios, walking trails, and some outdoor paths, so folks can get some fresh air or stroll outside if they'd like. The home has about 2,378 square feet and includes six units for seniors, split across one-bedroom apartments, studios, and a few communal living spaces, so folks can pick what works best for them, and there's a basement with seven rooms for storage and activities. Licensed as an Adult Foster Care home under Michigan license # AS630367512, the place can care for up to six adults, with a focus on folks who need daily support, memory care, or help with things like Parkinson's. There's forced air heating and central air to keep things comfortable year-round.
The home doesn't accept Medicare since the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services haven't certified it, but trained staff and a licensed nurse stay on-site to help with medication reminders, bathing, getting dressed, and managing care plans, and a doctor comes each month for resident health checks. You'll see people joining in with arts and crafts in the studio, taking fall prevention classes, or stopping by the wellness center and exercise room, and there's a community kitchen, dining hall, chapel services, gardens, a courtyard, and movie nights in the theatre room. Residents get three meals each day, with menus for special diets like diabetes or allergies, and there's help with feeding or showering if someone needs it.
Everyone has emergency call buttons in their rooms, and the grounds are fully secured with keypad entry, so families know their loved ones are safe, plus planned gatherings, family support meetings, and regular transportation services help keep everyone connected and taken care of. Housekeeping, laundry, full home maintenance, and linen help come standard, as well as moving assistance for new arrivals. There's also a barbershop, beauty salon, private dining, and a fitness section. Social activities like movie nights and game room gatherings, plus furniture and concierge services, add some comfort to daily living. Staff help with daily activities, offer non-ambulatory care for those who need it, manage medication with doctors and families, and make sure every resident gets personal attention, whether it's after surgery, during rehabilitation, or when long-term care is required. The small size, only six residents, means staff get to know everyone well, and there's always someone available around the clock.
