The original founders of BeeHive Homes were inspired by a very personal mission: to create a place where they could care for their aging parent in a setting that felt more like home than a traditional assisted living facility. Driven by this vision, they built a small, home-like residence that was perfectly suited to the needs of their beloved parent, ensuring they received the attentive and personalized care she deserved as they aged 'at-home.' This foundational experience shapes every aspect of BeeHive Homes, where we continue to provide a close-knit, family-like environment for all our residents.

Understanding Activities of Daily Living

Activities of Daily Living are essential tasks that contribute to a person’s daily self-care and include:

  • Bathing and Showering: Assisting residents with cleanliness and personal hygiene.
  • Dressing: Helping residents choose and put on clothes appropriate for the day and season.
  • Mobility: Aiding in moving in and out of beds, chairs, and navigating around the home.
  • Toileting: Providing the necessary support for restroom use, maintaining dignity and privacy.
  • Eating: Assisting with feeding, ensuring nutritional needs are met according to dietary requirements.

When these daily tasks become challenging, BeeHive Homes steps in to provide the necessary assistance, ensuring each resident maintains their independence as much as possible while receiving the care they need.

For example, as you or your loved one's ability to manage daily tasks independently diminish, the care team at BeeHive Homes is there to assist with a range of Activities of Daily Living. They help with bathing and maintaining personal hygiene, ensuring they are comfortably dressed each day, supported their mobility around the home, provided dignified assistance with toileting, and making sure they receive nutritious meals suited to their dietary needs. This foundational focus on personalized care upholds their dignity and enhances their quality of life.

The BeeHive Homes Difference

At BeeHive Homes of Edgewood, we proudly distinguish ourselves by offering an intimate, small-home environment that contrasts sharply with larger, more institutional assisted living facilities. This smaller scale not only ensures a cozy and familiar atmosphere but also brings several significant benefits that enhance the quality of care our residents receive:

Higher Staff-to-Resident Ratio: Our exceptional staff-to-resident ratio guarantees that each resident receives more personalized care and attention. This high level of staffing ensures that needs are addressed promptly and with a personal touch, reflecting our commitment to providing care that goes above and beyond.

Tailored Care Plans: We believe that every individual is unique, and so should be their care. At BeeHive Homes, each resident’s care plan is custom-designed to suit their specific needs and preferences, adapting as their requirements change over time. This personalized approach allows us to effectively manage health concerns while also catering to personal likes and dislikes, ensuring a truly individualized living experience.

Stronger Relationships: The smaller, more personal environment at BeeHive Homes fosters deeper connections between residents and caregivers. These relationships often grow to resemble those of a family, creating a supportive and caring community where residents feel valued and loved. This closeness also enhances the caregivers' ability to notice subtle changes in residents' health or behavior, which can be crucial for early detection and intervention.

Our BeeHive is thoughtfully designed to feel like home, from the warm and inviting décor to the comfortable communal areas that encourage social interaction and a sense of community. The difference in our approach is palpable from the moment you step through our doors. At BeeHive Homes, you don’t just find a place to live; you find a second family and a home where your loved ones are treated with the dignity and respect they deserve.

This emphasis on creating a nurturing environment that feels genuinely home-like is what sets BeeHive Homes apart. It’s a place where warmth, care, and community come together to provide a living experience that truly feels like "The Next Best Place to Home."

Our Commitment to Comfort and Compassion

At BeeHive Homes of Edgewood, we understand that true care extends far beyond mere physical assistance. It encompasses a holistic approach that significantly enhances the quality of life for our residents. Our caregivers, trained in the best practices of elder care, are not only highly skilled but also genuinely passionate about their roles. They are deeply committed to enriching the lives of those who call our community home, each and every day.

Creating an environment that feels like home involves more than comfortable furnishings and a pleasant setting—it's about fostering a sense of belonging and safety. Our staff excels in establishing daily routines that offer residents stability and predictability, crucial elements that can greatly benefit those needing assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs). These routines help to anchor our residents, giving them a framework of familiarity and ease that supports their mental and emotional well-being.

Moreover, our caregivers understand the importance of treating each resident like family, which involves recognizing the individuality of each person and tailoring our care to fit their unique needs and preferences. This personalized approach ensures that every resident receives the most compassionate and appropriate support possible, whether it's help with personal hygiene, mobility, or dining.

At BeeHive Homes of Edgewood, our commitment to comfort and compassion is evident not only in the safe and affectionate atmosphere we create but also in the thoughtful, attentive interactions our staff have with each resident.
