Michelle's AFH in Beaverton, OR, is a small adult family home that serves up to five residents and sits in a quiet, peaceful area that's good for rest or just enjoying a slower pace, and you'll see it's really a home-like setting where residents get the kind of day-to-day help that can make life more comfortable-things like personal care, medication reminders, help with bathing, dressing, and getting around, and the staff are known around here for being helpful, joyful, and kind, which you don't run across everywhere. Residents have private rooms with their own bathrooms that are fully wheelchair-accessible, so even if someone needs a little more support, or a lot, with things like incontinence, diabetes, or recovery from illness, there's steady help and monitoring anytime day or night, and nurses are nearby or on call, plus there's a podiatrist who visits so folks don't need to worry about missing their foot care. The house makes room for both men and women, and it's friendly to pets, and there's always that extra warmth you feel in a place where you can bring part of your own family with you, including four-legged companions, and you'll notice right off, too, that the atmosphere is very relaxed-friends and family are welcome to drop in during the day thanks to a flexible visiting policy.
Meals are cooked on-site every day and they serve them either in the dining area or right in your room if that's what you prefer, and if you need special diets, the staff and meal planners are used to making sure no one gets left out-seniors dealing with memory issues like Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia get special attention and care plans that fit their needs, so if you, or someone you care about, have higher medical needs, high acuity, or need diabetic support, or even hospice or respite care, Michelle's AFH has the skills and experience for those situations as well. The house is kept clean and well-maintained, amenities include big common spaces, quiet corners, and rooms with plenty of natural light, and it's easy to move around thanks to ramps and wheelchair-accessible showers, so even folks who don't get around as well anymore can stay comfortable and involved.
Activities are planned both on-site and off-site, so seniors can keep busy and active, whether it's games, crafts, or physical activity, and there's coordination with local healthcare if someone needs extra therapies, like physical, speech, or occupational therapy, which they offer right in the home-a real plus for those who want to stay in familiar surroundings. There's transportation provided to pharmacies, clinics, restaurants, or parks, which takes the pressure off families, and if someone wants to go to a local show or café, rides can be arranged. The whole place aims to help every resident have as much personal space and dignity as possible, focusing on creating a sense of belonging and helping people feel they matter, and the care is shaped around both the resident's needs and what's best for their families, too. The facility has a no-smoking policy indoors, which folks appreciate, and it's generally well-regarded for its warmth, professionalism, and the calm feeling you get when you walk through the door, so for many people-especially those looking for a quieter, smaller setting with plenty of support-Michelle's AFH can be a solid option.
