Friends Homes at Guilford offers both Assisted Living and Independent Living, allowing residents to move between levels of support without leaving the community. For those who need clinical oversight, staff can monitor oxygen use, manage oral or injectable diabetes regimens—including sliding-scale dosing—and remain alert to residents who are awake at night. Moderate dementia is accommodated, and a 24-hour on-site nurse coordinates with physicians to adjust care plans as needs change.

Daily operations are organized to reduce risk and maintain quick response times. An activity director keeps residents engaged while 24-hour security staff, a wander-guard system, and in-room pull cords provide multiple safety layers. The nursing team offers some physical assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and can supervise or perform walker, wheelchair, standby, or one-person transfers. On-site podiatry visits reduce the need for outside appointments.

Apartments are available in several layouts; some include a private bathroom, a kitchenette, furnished living areas, individual climate controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate. Because floor plans vary, not every apartment features all of these elements, and prospective residents should confirm specific features during a tour.

Meals follow a set menu that can be modified for dietary requirements, and snacks are available throughout the day. Independent Living residents can opt into medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, laundry service, and a monthly meal plan that supplements their fully equipped kitchens.

Amenities include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center with internet access, and on-site religious services. Scheduled transportation helps residents reach local appointments, and the property is close to public transit for added convenience.
