Ridgeway Home in Richmond, Michigan, is licensed as a residential care home and is equipped to handle an extensive range of medical situations. The team monitors residents who have a history of elopement, combative or other behavioral issues, and those who are up throughout the night. Care staff accommodate people living with advanced dementia and can manage wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and complex diabetic regimens including oral medications, injections, and sliding scale insulin. The community also accepts residents who are under 60 years of age when their medical profile fits the home’s capabilities.

Around-the-clock staffing, awake night shift coverage, and routine background checks form the basis of Ridgeway Home’s safety program, and 24-hour on-site personnel maintain security. On-site podiatry visits reduce the need for outside appointments. Direct care includes full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and the team performs transfers ranging from supervision with a walker to two-person assist, full transfer with a Hoyer lift, and care for bed-bound individuals.

Private and semi-private rooms are available. Some rooms come furnished, include cable service, and receive regular housekeeping, though not every accommodation has all of these features, so prospective residents and families should confirm availability during a tour.

Meals follow a set menu. Staff members monitor special diets to align with each resident’s medical plan and can adjust portions or ingredient selections to support diabetic, low-sodium, or other physician-ordered guidelines.

Residents have community-wide internet access, allowing them to stay in contact with family, handle personal business online, or stream entertainment without relying on outside services.
