Atkinson House sits at 702 Atkinson Street in Detroit, MI, and serves as a board and care home for seniors, operating out of a single-family house built in 1900 with a brick exterior, fireplace, two bathrooms, a basement, and a detached garage, though parking and outdoor features aren't really described. The lot is pretty big at 6,011 square feet, which gives enough space for shared living. The community specializes in memory care for seniors living with Alzheimer's or dementia, providing a structured and supervised setting, with programs centered on memory and activities meant to help residents feel safer and less confused, and they also work to keep folks from wandering off. Assisted living services help with everyday tasks, including bathing, dressing, and eating. Care covers incontinence needs, diabetic care, help with medications, and high acuity health needs, and non-ambulatory folks can also get support.
People who need short-term stays can get respite care, which helps family caregivers by giving them a break, and the home welcomes both private and semi-private rooms, even having studio and one-bedroom setups, and bathrooms can be private or shared. Atkinson House holds activities on-site and takes residents out for activities off-site, and common areas are available for relaxing. The staff, called senior living advisors, help families make long-term care decisions by providing education, explaining care options, and sharing personalized recommendations during a free consultation. You'll find published room rates and can see reviews, and over 95% of those reviews are confirmed as real by the staff, and families can also use online options to learn about ratings, reviews, and pricing. Business hours run from 8 AM to 9 PM on weekdays and 8 AM to 5:30 PM on weekends. Atkinson House focuses on actual needs like memory care, assisted living, and support for seniors who require hands-on help, so families can learn what fits without getting lost in fancy promises.
