Haven Country AFC sits in Montrose, MI, right in a quiet and peaceful spot where folks can see the country and enjoy a slow pace. This family-owned adult foster care home has served the community for more than 40 years, taking in up to 10 residents at a time. The home has a special license and is both MI and DD certified, so it'll take care of seniors, people with developmental disabilities, folks who struggle with mental illness, and those who are physically handicapped, and it serves adults over 40. Men and women both live here. The place is wheelchair accessible and split between private suites and shared rooms, all fully furnished, so you'll find air-conditioning, cable TV, internet, telephones, and private bathrooms in the suites. Kitchenettes are there for light meals or snacks, but residents don't worry about cooking or cleaning-the staff handles all that, along with laundry and housekeeping, so nobody has to deal with housework anymore.
The care team, which includes CNAs, LPNs/LVNs, and RNs, is around all day and night to help residents with daily tasks, like getting dressed, bathing, and taking medicine. Staff also handles medication management and administration for everyone's safety. Meals are nutritious and planned by chefs, and there's always something to eat. There are activities every day-some keep the body busy, some are for the mind, and some help with feeling connected. Devotional times are available for anyone who wants them. The staff makes sure people can spend time with others in common areas, but there's space for quiet, too, for those who need it.
The home is classified as an Adult Medium Group Home by the state, so local agencies like the Department of Aging or Veteran's Services do regular surveys to check in on quality and safety. Haven Country AFC doesn't accept Medicare unless it has been specially certified for that, but it has its Adult Foster Care license handled by the state. It serves as a workplace for those who want to work as caregivers or nurses. Residents choose different living arrangements and levels of care suited to what they need. The setting looks inviting and warm, as many people have said, so it's a spot where families can feel at ease knowing their loved one gets care in a stable and welcoming home.
