Grand Brook Memory Care of Grand Rapids delivers a single focus on memory care. The community is prepared for residents who wander day or night, present elopement risks, show combative or other behavioral issues, stay up all night, or require wound care, oxygen, or specialized diets. Care teams manage diabetes across oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale regimens and accept residents under age 60. The program also accommodates advanced dementia conditions and residents with psychiatric diagnoses, keeping care plans individualized and medically driven.

Registered or licensed nurses are on staff, backed by a nurse on call around the clock. Caregivers stay awake overnight, all employees pass background checks, and the campus is enclosed front and back with door alarms and pull-cord alerts that link directly to staff. Full assistance is available with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfer capabilities range from standby help with a walker to two-person or Hoyer-lift transfers for bed-bound residents, and wheelchair support is routine. An activity director schedules daily cognitive and recreational programming designed for memory care residents.

Accommodation options include furnished suites, some with private bathrooms, and residents may add personal touches by painting or decorating their rooms. Cable access is offered in select units, and the community handles housekeeping and scheduled laundry services. Not every room has every feature, so it is advisable to confirm details during a visit.

Meals follow a set menu with the flexibility of on-order selections at each sitting. Snacks are available throughout the day, and staff can serve meals in the resident’s room if needed. A private dining room can host family gatherings, and clinical oversight allows for diet modifications such as low-sugar, low-sodium, or texture-altered plans.

Amenities include an on-site barber and beauty shop, a movie room, internet access, communal gardens, and regular religious services. Scheduled transportation helps residents reach medical appointments and community outings. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
