Ovid Healthcare Center in Ovid, MI delivers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, enabling residents to remain on one campus as needs change. The clinical team can manage residents who wander at any time of day, present elopement risk, show combative or other behavioral concerns, stay awake through the night, or require ongoing wound care. Oxygen therapy, dialysis coordination, diabetic management—whether by oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale insulin—are all available. The community also accommodates residents under 60 who need long-term support, as well as individuals on physician-ordered special diets. Hospice services are offered on site, and pain, cardiac, and stroke care programs are in place to address higher-acuity conditions without moving the resident to another setting.
A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on duty around the clock, backed by an awake night shift and a call-cord alert system in each apartment. All employees undergo background checks, and staffing ratios are adjusted to meet residents’ clinical profiles. Speech, occupational, and physical therapies are available on site, along with resident and family counseling. Residents who need help with activities of daily living receive full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from standby supervision to one- or two-person transfers, full Hoyer-lift transfers, and care for bed-bound residents, with walkers and wheelchairs accommodated.
Apartments can include a private bathroom, basic furnishings, and safety features such as grab bars and emergency call cords, although not every accommodation offers every feature. Floor plans are designed to allow wheelchair access, and memory-care units provide secured doors and monitored exits to reduce wandering risk.
Daily meals are prepared to support physician-ordered diet modifications, carbohydrate-controlled menus, and other specialized nutritional plans. Staff can provide full assistance at mealtime for residents who need help eating, and snacks are available around the clock to meet the needs of those with fluctuating appetites or altered sleep patterns.
Residents have access to on-site parking, a wheelchair-accessible campus, a wellness center, and community-wide internet access. Scheduled transportation is available for medical appointments and errands, while families can also arrange private transport if preferred.
