Who holds the license for Rehoboth Oaks?
The licensee of record is Rehoboth AFC, Inc. LARA's file lists 1 other home under that same licensee in Kent, Ottawa, Allegan, Montcalm and Ionia counties.
Sister homes include Rehoboth AFC (Byron Center).
A shared licensee usually means shared policies, training and management, so the inspection history of sister homes is worth a look too.
Does Rehoboth Oaks accept residents with Alzheimer's or dementia?
Yes -- the state file includes Alzheimer's among the populations this adult foster care home serves (aged and Alzheimer's).
Because AFC homes fall outside MCL 333.20178, nothing obliges this home to describe its dementia care in writing. Ask anyway -- a home that can put its approach on paper usually has one.
