Divine Adult Family Home sits quietly in Madison, Wisconsin, as a small, licensed facility with room for just four seniors, and the place feels a lot like a traditional home with shared apartments, fully furnished rooms, studios, and one-bedroom suites, keeping things cozy and familiar. Each apartment stays well-kept, offers basic utilities, panic buttons, and in-room emergency systems for peace of mind, and you'll see a tidy living room, a dining area, and daily meals prepared by a chef, with snacks and special diets if needed-like for diabetes or allergies. Folks walk landscaped trails, spend time in the garden or courtyard, and there's a bistro, a snack bar, a library with reading spots, and even a small movie theater, while cable TV, Wi-Fi, and phones keep everyone connected. Pets are welcome, and seniors get to join group activities, daily fitness classes, scheduled events, movie nights, and birthday parties, or simply relax with books or computers.
Staff give 24-hour supervision and personal care, helping with dressing, bathing, moving around, and medication, and they've got special training for dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and brain injury care, and they help with mobility and falls management. They coordinate with healthcare professionals too, and nurses check on health and medication, plus transport's arranged for appointments, groceries, and errands. Residents get their housekeeping, linen, and laundry done, and staff build care plans for each person based on what's needed, with focus on independence, comfort, and dignity. Divine Adult Family Home can only admit four residents at a time, and it offers both long-term and short-term or respite stays, so someone can live there full time or just for a break.
You'll find people here from all walks, including those with developmental or physical disabilities, and everything's English-speaking, but the house sadly isn't wheelchair accessible. Office hours run daily in the morning and afternoon. The environment stays family-style, with encouragement for conversations, respect, and trust, and the place plays a steady role in helping seniors keep their independence while making sure families know their loved ones are cared for, in a straightforward, comfortable setting that doesn't feel overly complicated or hard to settle into.
