Clara's House II sits tucked away in Dexter, Michigan, as a small Adult Family Home with only six beds, so everyone gets to know each other pretty well, and it runs under Michigan license # AF810377402, with safety features like secured apartments and keypad entry to help folks feel at ease. The place offers both assisted living and memory care, with attention for people who've got Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease, traumatic brain injuries, or other special healthcare needs, and folks who are physically handicapped or developmentally disabled can find help here too, with staff that gives a hand with daily living like bathing, dressing, moving around, or using the bathroom. People with allergies or diabetes also have meal plans that meet their needs, and the kitchen staff prepares and serves meals every day with dietary concerns in mind and offers dining rooms and even options for private meals or snacks, with room for meals on special occasions too.
There's a garden, outdoor porch, walking paths, and a safe spot for picnics outside, while inside, you'll see a community room, a movie theatre for movie nights, a library, arts and crafts classes, computer lessons, and a fitness center for anyone who likes to keep moving, along with an area for games and social time. Clara's House II lets residents keep small pets, and family gatherings happen right on site with support for everyone involved, even some counseling and encouragement for families if times get tough.
Rooms come furnished with all appliances included, and choices range from studios to one-bedroom or shared quarters; each one has emergency systems for peace of mind and includes regular linen care and upkeep for the apartment. Monthly checks by a registered nurse keep health in focus, and both physical and occupational therapy services are offered right there in the home, with medication help and reminders, set-up, and coordination with outside doctors. Someone's always on call, day or night, for supervision or if anyone needs help moving from place to place, taking showers, or even with manual feeding when it's needed.
Transportation's available for appointments or errands, with both shared and private rides. Residents enjoy entertainment options every day, from movie nights to games, with outings off-site, arts and crafts, health and fitness classes, and planned group activities backed up by staff that helps with moving in, concierge requests, and personal services. Every month, the nurse does preventive health assessments, and there's help for diabetes management, grooming, beauty, laundry, housekeeping, and keeping up with doctors.
Clara's House II remains licensed and regulated as an Adult Foster Care home and doesn't take Medicare unless certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Six beds keeps it small, and security is a priority with outdoor and indoor safety features and supervision day and night. The staff builds individual care plans for every resident, and both non-ambulatory and memory care services are available, so whether someone needs help getting from room to room, needs their medications managed, or needs meal plans tailored for specific health needs, the staff there can handle all that with a caring touch.
