Patti's Foster Care

Patti's Foster Care in Hillman, MI, provided a home-like setting for up to six senior residents, with six licensed beds in an adult family home, and the place focused on offering long-term care for older adults who needed help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, and moving around, and the staff stayed on-site 24/7 to help manage medication, provide health checkups with a registered nurse once a month, and coordinate care with doctors for those with conditions like diabetes or Parkinson's disease, so families could feel a bit of peace knowing loved ones got close supervision, laundry, housekeeping, and meal planning-including diets for special needs and allergies. The residents could join activities each day meant to help them stay social and active, with movie nights, arts and crafts, and a life enrichment program, and the home included a large dining hall, a garden, walking trails, a barbershop, massage therapy, and a library, giving people chances to spend time outside or relax indoors. There were one-bedroom units with full furnishings and all appliances, cable TV, wifi, telephones, private bathrooms, and smart layouts made for easy movement, plus maintenance and move-in coordination. Small pets were allowed, and the house was designed to support people with mental or physical disabilities, aged adults, or those needing assisted living, with extra care for incontinence and transferring, so each person got help based on their needs. The place was licensed and monitored by state and local agencies like the Department of Aging, didn't accept Medicare for services unless specially certified, and kept up regular health screenings to make sure everyone stayed healthy. Patti's Foster Care also served children in foster care, giving them a safe and stable place, with events and a caring environment to support their welfare and daily life, and it stayed focused on creating a place where each resident or child felt supported and secure during their time there.
