Autumn Ridge Of Clarkston 1 is a licensed adult group home for seniors in Clarkston, Michigan, with space for up to 20 residents, and it handles both married couples and single older adults who need assisted living, memory care, or board and care services, and the place has 20 assisted living units that have smart layouts, spacious living rooms, washers and dryers, and safety features like panic buttons and full security in each apartment, so you know there's help there if someone needs it in a hurry. The staff gives help with things like bathing, dressing, taking medications, getting up and down if you have trouble moving, and housekeeping, while a licensed nurse checks on everyone and there's always someone available on-call and in person 24 hours, so folks don't feel alone when they need something, even if it's just help getting dressed, taking medicine, or getting to bed at night.
The community supports people living with Alzheimer's, dementia, mild cognitive impairment, or even Parkinson's, and there's custom memory care programming designed with mental wellness and gentle routine in mind, and if anyone needs more hands-on help, such as with feeding or getting around, staff have experience with that as well, so people who can't do those things on their own still get care. Everyone has a personalized care plan that the staff reviews and updates each month, trying to adjust if needs change, and there are monthly health checkups and ongoing monitoring, which helps if something new comes up with someone's health. The facility offers full meal service with special attention for allergies or diabetic diets, help with transportation to medical appointments, a call system in every room, apartment cleaning, laundry, linen service, and even home maintenance-so daily chores don't become a burden anymore, and residents can enjoy their time.
Besides practical help, Autumn Ridge Of Clarkston 1 tries to keep residents engaged, with things like resident-run activities, scheduled daily events, fitness classes, walking groups, arts room, garden paths, and even a community dining room and on-site beauty salon, which makes it easier for folks to get out and socialize if they want to, or just enjoy a meal together without having to cook. There's a communal kitchen if someone wants to prepare something themselves, and the place allows pets with their own set of rules, so people can bring a furry companion if they meet the guidelines set by the community. Cable TV, telephone service, Wi-Fi, parking, and housekeeping are standard, so nobody has to worry too much about small details, and concierge-style help is available for move-in or daily needs if families have questions.
The location is close to doctor offices, pharmacies, hospitals, parks, churches, restaurants, and shops, so outings or medical trips are straightforward, and family can visit easily if they want to. While this isn't a huge place, with about 13-20 people at most and 20 licensed beds, that smaller setting means staff can pay more attention to everyone, even as needs change. Autumn Ridge Of Clarkston 1 follows Michigan regulations as an Adult Large Group Home (license number AL630365575), and while it might not have the biggest grounds compared to some massive facilities, it does offer plenty of space and activities for folks who want a supportive environment and daily help without losing a sense of home.
