Family First AFH – Artondale operates as a residential care home and is equipped to serve residents with routine health needs as well as more complex conditions. Care teams monitor and manage wound care, administer oxygen therapy, and coordinate special therapeutic diets. Staff are trained to work with diabetics whether they require oral medications, insulin injections, or sliding-scale adjustments, and the home accepts individuals living with moderate dementia by tailoring cues and interventions to changing cognitive abilities.
Round-the-clock support is anchored by an on-site RN or LPN, a nurse on call 24 hours a day, and awake night staff. All employees undergo background checks, and the building uses door alarms, a fenced rear area, and continuous staffing for security. Podiatry, audiology, and dental practitioners visit the home so residents can receive routine foot, hearing, and oral care without leaving the property. Direct assistance is available for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and the team can handle mobility needs ranging from standby help with a walker to full Hoyer-lift transfers for bed-bound residents.
Private and semi-private rooms are offered, many with their own bathrooms, furnishings, and individual climate controls, and residents may paint or decorate with personal items. Cable service, regular housekeeping, and scheduled laundry are provided, though specific features may vary by room type.
Meals follow a standard menu with the option to order alternatives, and snacks are on hand throughout the day. In-room dining and a private dining room are available, and kitchen staff can accommodate gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chop, puréed, and thickened-liquid diets as ordered by a physician or dietitian.
The property is fully wheelchair accessible and includes a barber and beauty shop, a movie room, and campus-wide internet access. A community shuttle is reserved for medical appointments, helping residents reach off-site providers when necessary.
