Shorehaven sits on beautiful waterside property in Sterling Heights, Michigan, with a peaceful view of the lake, plenty of green lawns and walking trails, outdoor patios, and spacious courtyards that give folks a chance to watch the birds and relax in the fresh air. The community offers apartment-style living, with choices of one- and two-bedroom units that come with private bathrooms, walk-in closets, balconies or patios, individually controlled heating and air conditioning, and full kitchens so people can cook if they want, but they also serve one to two prepared meals a day in the dining room, which they call Graceful Dining™, and some folks seem to like the restaurant-style meals a lot. Residents find laundry and housekeeping taken care of, and Wi-Fi is available, so keeping in touch with family or reading the news is pretty easy.
Shorehaven covers a lot of care options since it's a continuing-care retirement community, meaning folks can start out independent and get more help as needed, including assisted living, memory care for dementia or Alzheimer's, adult day care, and nursing and rehab services, even respite care for short stays if someone needs a break. AdvisaCare handles personal care like help with bathing, dressing, and medication, while home health services are also available. Specialized technology, like Needlepoint Bipolar Ionization air purification, boosts air quality and safety throughout the building, which some residents find reassuring, especially in recent times.
The grounds offer space for pets, and residents enjoy a fitness center, arts and crafts room, salon and beauty area, movies, cards and games, and a library. There's also a chapel for worship, plenty of seating in communal living rooms, and a safe community setup for those who have dementia, designed to keep people comfortable and reduce wandering. The staff offer transportation to appointments or outings, and there's resident parking for those who drive. The place is pet-friendly, so bringing a well-behaved animal is okay, and there are walking trails on the property for exercise and fresh air.
Shorehaven provides support for those using Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security disability, or veterans benefits, and can connect people to senior services like geriatric care management and information resources. Management by Grace Management, Inc. keeps things running, and people can look at photos, videos, or take a virtual tour online for a better sense of the place. There's always something going on, with social events, fitness programs, and a "Living Gracefully" blog sharing tips for healthy aging. Shorehaven serves Sterling Heights and nearby communities like Shelby Township, Macomb, Washington, and Warren. The environment stays welcoming and calm, with a big focus on safety, health, and letting seniors keep their freedom as long as possible, with extra care or support available when it's needed.
