Vicky’s Place in Farmington Hills, Michigan, concentrates on memory-care, supporting residents who live with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. The care team is trained in redirection techniques, behavior observation, and personalized cognitive engagement designed to reduce confusion and anxiety. A licensed nurse oversees medication management, while caregivers are on duty around the clock for assistance with bathing, dressing, and mobility. Routine health checks are scheduled to help detect changes in condition early, and electronic records keep physicians informed without delay.
Beyond its core memory-care program, Vicky’s Place offers respite or short-term stays for families needing temporary support. Residents with diabetes receive monitoring of blood-glucose levels, help with insulin administration, and coordinated menu planning that aligns with physician guidance. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy can be arranged through visiting providers, and transportation is scheduled for outside appointments. The care staff communicates regularly with families, providing updates on progress and any changes to the individualized care plans.
Suites and companion rooms are designed for ease of movement, featuring wheelchair-accessible showers, grab bars, and emergency call systems; some units add private baths, resident parking, and cable or satellite TV. Climate control is standard, and select rooms include Wi-Fi connectivity. Shared spaces—such as an indoor common area with a central fireplace, an outdoor patio, and landscaped walking paths—give residents options for quiet time or supervised socializing. Because layouts differ, not every accommodation includes every listed feature, so families are encouraged to verify specific room details during a tour.
Dining services follow a restaurant-style model with meals available throughout the day to suit individual schedules. The culinary team prepares menus that can be adapted for low-sodium, no-sugar, gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, Kosher, and organic preferences. Special dining programs, themed BBQs, and picnics are scheduled to add variety, and nutrition plans are coordinated with nursing staff for residents managing diabetes or other health requirements. Snacks and beverages are accessible any time.
Residents can choose from daily activities in the arts and crafts center, cooking demonstrations, trivia games, Wii bowling, and stretching classes. Light therapy sessions, educational speakers, and movie nights in the theater room are routinely scheduled. Holiday and birthday parties provide additional social opportunities, and staff organize on-site art classes to encourage creative expression.
