Woodwards Assisted Living sits at 309 South Bailey Street in Romeo, Michigan, and holds a regular license, number AL500380140, through May of 2027, serving up to 20 adults including those with Alzheimer's. The building is new, kept up well, and gives off a small-town feel, with a caring, family-like atmosphere because Friends and Family, Inc. runs the place. The staff is there around the clock to support folks with daily needs like bathing, dressing, transferring, and getting their medicine on schedule, while also handling meals, laundry, housekeeping, and making sure residents always have someone nearby if they need help, whether that's in their private suite or a shared room, all of which come furnished, with kitchenettes, private baths, air conditioning, cable TV, internet, and telephones, so residents can talk to family and friends as they like.
Woodwards uses personal care plans, which means staff set up care to match each person's needs-some need memory care, others have diabetes or incontinence, and staff can help with those things, too, since healthcare workers are always right there in the building. An emergency alert system is in place everywhere in case someone needs fast help, and there's always supervision, day and night. The facility is ADA compliant, making it easier for folks to move around, and there are secure areas for extra peace of mind, especially for those needing memory care. People can join plenty of activities, whether they like arts and crafts in the big arts room, movie nights, gardening, or walking the paths outside, and there's both resident-run and scheduled social programs-so it stays lively but residents choose how social they want to be. There are also mental health programs, and staff offer special programs for autism, including some partnerships through Acorn Health, Akoya Behavioral Health, and Affable Home Healthcare Network, as well as help for people with mental illnesses and substance use disorders, and a big focus on community living support.
Meals are cooked and served three times a day, with organic food and staff who adjust recipes for allergies, diabetes, or any special diets, and dining can be in the big dining area with others or in rooms if someone prefers it that way. Housekeeping and linen changes are done regularly, and there's a salon and barber on-site for people who like to get their hair cut or styled. Transportation gets arranged for doctor appointments or social outings-you just have to ask-and staff also help folks get ready for moves in and out, which can take a lot of weight off families. There are devotional services off-site for those who want to attend, and the facility offers health monitoring, medication management, coordination with outside healthcare providers, and non-ambulatory care.
Residents can join a mix of activities on-site or out in the community, and there's always a staff member close by, in case someone needs a hand with transfers or needs standby help for safety. Families looking for short-term relief can also get respite care. The place follows standards set by groups like BHCOE and CARF for quality care. Woodwards aims to help folks keep their independence as much as they can, providing choices for private or shared living spaces, and making sure everyone gets the support, safety, and comfort they need, while living life on their own terms.
