Why is A Heavenly Home a SAFE place for a loved one to live?
We have awake staff 24/7 and we offer a caregiver / patient ratio of 1 caregiver per every 3 residents, which is above and beyond the industry standard. The US Department of Health and Human Services released a study that found that one-quarter of assisted living communities had a ratio of one PCA for each 23 or more residents (https://www.payingforseniorcare.com/assisted-living/ratios.html). At A Heavenly Home, we have the comfort of individual houses, all secured in a private gated community. We also have motion sensor alerts & call buttons in every room.
What is the process of admitting a loved one to A Heavenly Home?
To begin the process, we will take you on a private tour of our facilities where you will get to know our home & our family here. We are available to answer any questions or concerns you may have pertaining to your personal circumstances and needs. If you decide the A Heavenly Home is the best fit for you or your loved one(s), the next step is a resident appraisal at our facility with you or your loved one. Following the resident appraisal, we will request a physicians report & complete the initial intake paperwork. The final step is to schedule a move in date for you or your loved one to make A Heavenly Home your home.
What types of activities are offered to residents?
We do many activities on-site, and regularly take residents on outings in the local community. Some of the places we visit include local museums, aquariums, the county fair, pumpkin patches, zoo, art studio, picnics at the park and lakes, activities in senior centers, and more! On site we have daily exercise, gardening, petting zoo, hair & nail salon, music therapy, games, art, cooking, movie nights, and more. There is always an upcoming event on the calendar that everyone is looking forward too, and we are always adding new & fun activities.
What are the meals like?
We plan the menu a month in advance so that we can incorporate as many fresh fruits and vegetables from local farmers as we can. At A Heavenly Home, we love the participation of the residents when doing so.
