Is Amelia AFC Home in Wyoming licensed by the State of Michigan?
Amelia AFC Home is licensed. Michigan's Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs lists license AS410417331 at 1854 Glenvale DR SW, Wyoming: an adult foster care small group home (up to 6 residents) approved for 6 residents, holding a regular license from April 3, 2026 to April 2, 2028.
Source: Michigan LARA, Bureau of Community and Health Systems -- statewide AFC/HFA file and facility report index, data as of 2026-10-30.
Who holds the license for Amelia AFC Home?
The licensee of record is Dignified Care LLC. LARA's file lists 4 other homes under that same licensee in Kent, Ottawa, Allegan, Montcalm and Ionia counties.
The same licensee also holds Dignified Care 44th. Street (Kentwood), Chalet Home (Wyoming), Dignified Care (Grand Rapids), and Grace Home (Wyoming).
A shared licensee usually means shared policies, training and management, so the inspection history of sister homes is worth a look too.
Does Amelia AFC Home accept residents with Alzheimer's or dementia?
Yes -- the state file includes Alzheimer's among the populations this adult foster care home serves (physically handicapped, developmentally disabled, mentally ill, aged, traumatic brain injury, and Alzheimer's).
Michigan's written dementia disclosure law does not reach adult foster care, so put the questions to Amelia AFC Home directly: how many staff are awake at night for 6 residents, how doors are secured, and what would lead to a discharge notice.
