Mission Road Developmental Center Country Haven sits in a quiet, friendly neighborhood, and serves up to six residents, so people tend to get to know each other pretty well, and the staff has the time to give everyone a good amount of attention, which is important, especially since they focus on helping people with developmental challenges. The place has both assisted living and memory care options, so folks can get the right help as their needs change, and there's skilled nursing and specialized services for people with conditions like Parkinson's disease too, all watched over by RN Care Managers and a team trained to handle all sorts of care levels. The staff helps with bathing, dressing, moving around, and managing medicine, and offers things like incontinence care, scheduled bathroom reminders, and rehabilitation for those who need a little extra help. There's always someone around, day and night, to answer calls or handle emergencies, which is a comfort if you've ever worried about being alone in the middle of the night.
The rooms come either private or semi-private, and every space is fully furnished with air conditioning, kitchenettes, private bathrooms, and setups for phone, internet, and cable, which is nice if you like your own routines or want to keep in touch with family. Meals are cooked on site, with attention to things like diabetes or allergies, and sometimes they use organic ingredients if that's important, and if you need help eating, staff is there for that too. Folks get housekeeping, linen service, and transportation for doctor visits, which means less to worry about for anybody. The grounds have gardens to relax in, walking paths, and a dining room where meals and gatherings take place, and there are daily planned activities and social events, which help keep the days interesting and give people something to look forward to. There's a strong focus on independence, developmental skills, and structured support programs, so everyone is encouraged to do as much as they can on their own, but never left to struggle. Country Haven doesn't allow pets, so if you've got a dog or cat you're hoping to bring, that's something to know, but the place makes up for it with a calm, safe setting and a team that really tries to help each resident feel comfortable, cared for, and part of a close community.
