Bakers Home Inc sits in a peaceful, residential part of Franklin, Virginia, at 204 Morton St, and this place serves seniors who need some daily help but still want to keep a good bit of their independence, and you can find both assisted living and care home levels here, so folks who need anything from a little help to some hands-on care will find the support they need. The community keeps things small and friendly, with rooms for those who like being in a more relaxed, small-group setting, and there are both studio and semi-private apartments, each fully furnished, and you get housecleaning, linen service, in-house laundry, and dry-cleaning included, plus safety features throughout the building so people with mobility needs can move around safely and comfortably, while still having their privacy and independence respected. Residents get three meals a day served restaurant-style in the dining room, and the kitchen handles special diets, so folks with different health needs don't have to worry, and there's help with things like preparing food, bathing, dressing, toileting, getting around, and taking medicines, plus regular health checks, fall prevention programs, and a nurse on staff for peace of mind.
The place stays lively with scheduled activities every day, both community-sponsored and resident-run, and you'll find things like bingo, card games, walks on landscaped trails, parties, and other social events, and there's even a theater room, exercise programs, a small library and reading room, a garden, outdoor seating, and common rooms for visiting or relaxing. Residents have the support of caregivers for medications, diabetes management, and even rehabilitation help, and there's always 24-hour supervision, along with a call system if someone needs help right away. People can bring their pets here and use things like a beauty salon on site, and they also get free rides to see doctors, barbers, and places not on the property, which is nice for keeping up with things outside too. The building's got secured grounds with plenty of parking and space outside, and Bakers Home Inc is CARF-accredited, so it meets certain standards for health and human services.
The fees cover almost everything, and there's help available with VA benefits and financial advice, including cost assistance programs, and payments can be made by card or check. The staff makes sure care plans are tailored for each resident, whether someone needs just a bit of help or more steady attention with things like incontinence, non-ambulatory care, or medication administration. Some special programs are held off-site for people looking for devotional activities, and the on-site programs offer a mix of mental, physical, and emotional support, so residents stay as engaged and healthy as they can be. The grounds hold up to 32 people in secured, comfortable units, and folks here seem to appreciate being in a warm, supportive place that tries to balance independence with the safety and help that seniors need as they get older.
