Community Living Options/Old Log Trail Home sits at 6156 Old Log Trail in Kalamazoo, Michigan, and takes care of up to six adults in a peaceful residential neighborhood, where staff help residents with daily living like bathing, dressing, transfers, and medication management. The home feels safe and comfortable, with private and shared rooms, all fully furnished, complete with kitchenettes, private bathrooms, cable TV, internet, phone service, and air conditioning in living spaces, so everyone can pick a living option that works best for their independence. Residents get chef-prepared, home-cooked meals and snacks served in a shared dining room, and the kitchen can handle special dietary needs, whether that means a diabetes diet or an allergy-sensitive menu, with meals designed by a registered dietitian. Housekeeping and laundry services let residents spend less time on chores and more time enjoying the outdoor garden, walking paths, or relaxing on the deck.
Staff remain on hand around the clock, always available for help with medication, personal care, or unscheduled needs, offering encouragement and respect to foster independence where possible. The Old Log Trail Home keeps a small community feel, which means personalized care plans, easy communication, and more attention from the staff, who help with move-in coordination, medical appointments, and care coordination with healthcare providers. The home provides activities for any interest-games like cards and bingo, arts and crafts, daily exercise, social groups, movie nights in the community theatre, and events to keep everyone engaged-and there's a beauty and barbershop, a fitness area, pharmacy services, a chapel for quiet moments, and a library with helpful books.
Residents can get physical therapy, massage therapy, ambulation help, and spoon feeding if needed. Transportation is available, with free rides for groceries or doctor's visits, and there's on-site parking for family who come by for a visit. Pets are allowed, and the serene outdoor spaces encourage some fresh air or a walk, all designed with safe apartment features. Old Log Trail Home is licensed as an Assisted Living Board and Care Home under license AS390073055 and holds a three-year CARF accreditation, awarded in 2023. The home supports memory care, including for those with Alzheimer's, and can offer respite care to give relief to caregivers. Friendly staff and residents, clear routines, and a calm atmosphere make this a place where each person can feel seen, respected, and supported through all stages of independence.
