Bethsaida Family Home 4 sits in Madison, WI, and works as a licensed Adult Family Home with a focus on helping seniors who need daily support and a steady, home-like setting, and while the home only has 4 licensed beds, that small size gives it a warm, inviting feel where staff can really know the residents and keep things personal, and the staff speak English and stay on site around the clock. People live in small studios or one-bedroom apartments with safety features, in-room washers and dryers, and options for furnished rooms for comfort and ease, and there's a communal kitchen plus a big dining room for shared meals and social activities. The home gives three meals and snacks every day and has meal services that take into account diabetic, allergy, and other dietary needs, and there's always a helping hand for personal laundry, bed making, house cleaning, and linen changes.
Bethsaida Family Home 4 offers long-term and assisted care, making sure older adults get help with bathing, dressing, getting in and out of bed, medication management, continence, eating (even spoon feeding when needed), ambulation, and toileting. People can get monthly checks from licensed physicians, nurse visits for health checks and preventative screenings, and on-site physical and occupational therapy is also available. The community accepts private payment and won't take Medicare unless there's certification by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
Residents have access to daily fitness classes and an arts and crafts studio, plus walking paths, a garden, scheduled group transportation, a movie room, a library, a bistro, and a beauty shop, and dogs and cats are allowed for those who want to bring pets. There's group entertainment, social and educational programs, and regular meetings for residents and their families to talk with staff. Personal safety has some attention too, with secure entry using a keyless keypad and on-site security all day and night, and caregivers are there to help manage medication. Other features include flat screen TVs, internet, cable, basic utilities, emergency alert systems, on-site parking, and personal telephones in the rooms.
