Beckford Family Type Home For Adults operates as both a Residential Care Home and a Memory Care provider, so residents with mild forgetfulness up to advanced dementia can remain in one setting even as needs change. The team is prepared to work with individuals who wander during the day or night, have a history of elopement, display combative or other behavioral issues, stay awake overnight, are under 60 years old, or require diabetic management with either oral medications or insulin injections. Accepting these varied profiles allows couples or siblings with very different support requirements to live in the same community.
A 24-hour nurse is on call and the night shift is fully awake, giving families reassurance that urgent health events or late-night behaviors receive immediate attention. All staff members undergo background checks, and exit doors are alarmed to alert caregivers if a resident attempts to leave unaccompanied. Podiatry visits are performed on-site, and residents with psychiatric diagnoses can be admitted and monitored without needing to travel elsewhere for routine mental-health oversight. Direct personal care can extend to full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and caregivers are trained to manage transfers involving walkers, wheelchairs, or simple standby supervision.
Private and semi-private rooms are furnished, and most can be personalized with paint or decorations; cable service is available in select units. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry keep the living areas orderly, though not every accommodation includes every feature listed. For residents in the community’s Independent Living tier, medication-management check-ins, housekeeping, laundry, and a monthly meal plan can be arranged, allowing them to age in place with the right amount of oversight.
Meals follow a consistent set menu, and snacks are on hand between dining periods. The kitchen staff can prepare gluten-free plates, mechanically chopped entrées, puréed items, thickened liquids, or vegetarian choices so that residents maintain adequate nutrition regardless of dietary limitation or swallowing difficulty.
Outside the resident rooms, Beckford offers on-site parking, a barber and beauty shop, internet access, and fenced communal gardens for fresh air and walking.
