Heavenly Homestead Adult Foster Care is a small, home-based assisted living community for adults aged 55 and over who need extra help with daily life, and the place has a quiet, residential feel with both private and semi-private furnished rooms, so you get a sense of a real home with staff who are always around, day and night, to help with things like bathing, dressing, getting in and out of bed, medication reminders, and even working with health care providers if you need them. Meals are prepared for the residents, with options for kosher and vegetarian diets, and the staff pays attention to health needs like diabetes, including helping residents who check their blood sugars and take their insulin themselves, and there's help with bowel incontinence or those needing standby help to move around, which is important for people who might not get that kind of support in larger places. There are easy ways to get around the house, with wheelchair accessible showers and wide halls, and the common areas indoors and outside in the gardens give folks a place to socialize or join in on activities, things like movie nights, walking paths outside, and organized community-sponsored gatherings, so people don't end up too lonely.
Staff there try to keep the place very tidy and comfortable, and there's laundry and housekeeping services, daily meals served in a dining room with set times, and you don't have to worry about fee surprises as there's a straightforward structure for community fees, move-in setups, and levels of care depending on how much help you need, including light, medium, or more intensive support, plus fees for a second person. People can get help from visiting nurses and therapists, like physical, speech, and occupational therapy, and there's support for hospice if residents need that extra layer of help. The homestead is known for its kind and attentive staff, many of whom are able to help with transfers, such as moving from bed to wheelchair, and they help both men and women residents maintain their hygiene, manage their health conditions, and stay as independent as possible while still giving everyone supervision when it's needed.
Residents get to join in social and recreation programs, and the structured schedule of educational or fun activities encourages movement and helps people stay connected, while having a beautician on site, devotional services both onsite and offsite, and smoking areas outdoors for folks who need them. Transportation and resident parking are available, with more transportation options for an extra fee if getting around is a concern. Owners and support staff have gained a good reputation for being supportive and detail oriented, with an approach that keeps the environment clean and the atmosphere cozy and home-like. All the staff speak English, and the focus of the whole Foster Care program is on providing personalized attention, safe supervision, and help with both physical and mental disabilities when needed, always working to preserve residents' independence and dignity while making sure everyone feels part of a small, connected community.
