Four Seasons in Portland, MI, provides two levels of long-term care: traditional assisted living and a smaller residential care home setting for residents who prefer a home-style environment. Both settings are prepared to support individuals with mild dementia, offering a predictable daily structure and staff trained to notice early changes in cognition.

The community maintains a pull-cord alert system that immediately notifies on-site staff if a resident needs assistance. Residents have access to visiting podiatry services for routine foot and ankle care. Direct personal-care help is available for bathing, eating, and dressing, all at a full-assistance level. Toileting remains a resident-managed activity, though staff monitor for safety. Transfer support ranges from simple standby supervision to one-person physical assistance and accommodates walkers and wheelchairs.

Private and companion accommodations are offered furnished, with basic furniture in place for a quick move-in. Regular housekeeping keeps rooms clean, and scheduled laundry services handle linens and personal clothing. Not every room includes every feature, so it is advisable to confirm specific details during a tour.

Meals follow a set menu, and staff work with residents to monitor nutritional intake, especially for those who require full assistance with eating. Consistent meal scheduling helps residents with memory loss maintain routine, and substitutions may be available for special dietary needs, though the menu does not change day-to-day like a restaurant.

Residents can bring small pets, and a barber/beauty shop operates on site for haircuts and basic grooming services. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
