Grammy's House in Melbourne, FL, is a small and peaceful residential care home that offers assisted living, memory care, and nursing home services for seniors who want a cozy place with a calm atmosphere, and the folks here like to keep things personal and homelike, a bit like you'd see in "The Golden Girls" on TV, where residents can simply be themselves and enjoy each other's company in both indoor and outdoor common spaces or just settle into a quiet private or semi-private room that usually has its own bath and bathtub too, and if anyone needs help, a fully-trained and friendly staff is around all day and night, helping with things like hygiene, medication, daily activities, and general personal care. Residents can join in on regular activities such as art and music therapy, bingo, TV and movie nights, off-site outings, or even things like manicures, pedicures, and massages, and those who follow special diets can get kosher or vegetarian meal options or just settle for healthy snacks and home-cooked meals throughout the day in the dining area. The owner and administrator check up on each person's care plan to make sure assistance fits changing needs, whether that's with memory care, diabetes, incontinence, or just needing an extra hand to get by, and the health services include nurses on-site, medication management, ambulatory care, and a memory care system like Wander Guard, while families stay in the loop through phone or email updates. Folks who speak French or Spanish can get support in their language, and anyone who smokes can use the outdoor areas, while for those who drive or need rides, there's both resident parking and transportation services, and the community's close to public transit. Grammy's House offers laundry, housekeeping, safety features, devotional activities, and outreach or guidance for families making long-term care decisions, plus there's a way to connect with local advisors and see verified customer reviews with a rating around 3.5 stars, which is considered very good. The facility lists room pricing ranges for both private and semi-private rooms by phone, and generally aims to give each resident the support they need to feel comfortable, safe, and as independent as possible in a setting where making friends and building connections comes naturally.
Caring staff, homey, minor issues
I found the staff caring and welcoming, helped us settle in, and created a homey, intimate atmosphere with strong teamwork and weekly therapies (massages, manicures, art/music). Communication and medication administration were generally accurate and proactive, pricing is all-inclusive, hygiene care was fine, and administration was responsive-calibrating the plan of care when needed. On the downside, some staff lacked common sense, seemed to prefer self-care residents and were reluctant to increase care, and I noticed meds/changes weren't always clearly disclosed while memory issues worsened. Overall, I highly recommend Grammy's House.
