Sherwood Adult Family Home operates as a residential care home capable of managing a wide range of health needs. The staff is experienced in supporting residents who wander, exhibit behavioral challenges, stay awake through the night, or live with advanced dementia. Clinical services cover wound care, oxygen therapy, diabetic care on oral medications or insulin—including sliding-scale management—and the planning of individualized special diets. Younger adults under 60 who require long-term assistance are accepted.
A licensed nurse is on-site around the clock, and all caregivers are background-checked. An awake night shift monitors secure, fenced front and rear areas, and residents can summon help at any time through pull-cord alert systems. Personal care can be provided at the full-assistance level for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from simple walker or wheelchair help to one-person, two-person, or Hoyer lift transfers, including care for individuals who are bedbound.
Private and semi-private rooms are available; some include an en-suite bathroom, while others share facilities. Each room comes furnished, yet residents may repaint or decorate to their preference. Cable television, regular housekeeping, and scheduled laundry are included, though not every accommodation offers every listed feature.
Meals follow a set menu prepared in-house, with snacks offered throughout the day and the option for in-room dining. The kitchen can modify textures—mechanical chop, purée, or thickened liquids—and accommodate gluten-free, vegetarian, or other physician-ordered diets to align with each resident’s care plan.
On-site conveniences include resident parking, designated outdoor smoking areas, full wheelchair accessibility throughout the property, and community internet access.
