Who holds the license for Rehoboth AFC?
Rehoboth AFC, Inc. holds the license. The same licensee name appears on 1 other licensed home in the five West Michigan counties this site covers.
Sister homes include Rehoboth Oaks (Dorr).
A shared licensee usually means shared policies, training and management, so the inspection history of sister homes is worth a look too.
Does Rehoboth AFC accept residents with Alzheimer's or dementia?
Rehoboth AFC carries LARA's Alzheimer's designation. It is licensed as adult foster care and serves aged and Alzheimer's.
Michigan's written dementia disclosure law does not reach adult foster care, so put the questions to Rehoboth AFC directly: how many staff are awake at night for 6 residents, how doors are secured, and what would lead to a discharge notice.
