Christensen Care sits at 7663 Mayville Road in Marlette, Michigan, and offers care in a home-like, state-licensed residential care home called Christensen Care LLC, and you'll find three licensed beds here so it's got a more personal, cozy feeling than bigger places, with room for up to six residents following the adult family home license, and a quiet, private setting with nature views, walking paths, and a peaceful, Christ-centered home environment for seniors. The facility gives around-the-clock caregiving help, with nurses and professional staff there at all hours, and has a secure memory care wing for people who need dementia care or help because of Alzheimer's, as well as programs for mild cognitive impairment and other disorders. The caregiving team helps with things like bathing, dressing, moving about, grooming, transfers, and ongoing support for Activities of Daily Living, and everyone living there gets their own individual care plan, and support with special dietary needs like allergy-sensitive or diabetic diets since all the meals are prepared and served on the premises, and meal services always include nutritious options.
Residents get apartment cleaning, laundry and housekeeping, help with medication reminders, and incontinence support, and the place is fully wheelchair accessible with handicap access and emergency alert systems throughout to help keep everyone safe. The facility coordinates with healthcare providers, offers hospice waivers if people need end-of-life care, supports folks who can't walk on their own (non-ambulatory care), and makes sure everyone gets medical attention and supervision by trained staff twenty-four hours a day. Christensen Care has different apartment setups, all furnished, and the community rooms, dining area, café spaces, gaming rooms, indoor gathering spots, and common areas give residents room to relax, watch movies, join devotional activities, participate in group outings, or spend time in fitness classes, and there's movie nights and community-sponsored activities to keep everyone connected if they want to join in. The grounds have a garden and walking path to get outside and look at the views, which is nice on quiet days.
There's Wi-Fi and high-speed internet inside, and transportation and parking services help people get to appointments or outings, and staff take care of scheduled group trips and offsite activities, too. Residents who need help with personal things like grooming, cooking, laundry, or just cleaning up always get support, and there's always a friendly owner and staff available if someone has a question or a worry. The facility is surveyed by the Department of Aging or Veteran's Services, but doesn't take Medicare for payments and isn't certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Christensen Care uses its own care program names and tries to make everything feel settled and friendly, so residents have a sense of belonging and families can feel some peace of mind when their loved one lives here. There's a Facebook page with more details about daily life and activities for anyone curious.
