As you or your loved one prepare for the next chapter of life, relaxation will likely be a key requirement. There is nothing quite like the peace that’s associated with a serene, small-town environment.
If you’re seeking a restful environment for you or your loved one, you’ll quickly discover that few communities are as peaceful, quiet, and relaxed as Grace Haven. Nestled in the tranquil town of St. Johns, our community will provide the one-on-one attention that you or your loved one need and deserve.
Every staff member truly knows each resident, deeply and personally. They’re friends of ours. And, most importantly, they’re members of our family.
We invite you to learn more about us and our tranquility, community-based relationships, services, and amenities.
Life in St. Johns, Michigan
Without question, St. Johns offers something for everyone. If you or your loved one enjoy city life, Lansing is less than 20 minutes away. If small towns are more appealing instead, St. Johns will provide exactly that.
With roughly 7,700 residents, St. Johns is more renowned for its peppermint and spearmint plants than its hustle and bustle. Yet, there is still quite a bit to do in the town, as seen below.
- Clinton County Historical Museum: To learn about Clinton County’s extensive history, dating back to the 1830s, you or your loved one should consider visiting this museum at least once.
- IQhub: Since St. John’s is known for its agriculture (90% of its farmland is perfect growing soil), no one should be surprised that an agricultural and environmental education nonprofit is based here. You or your loved one will have endless entertainment, while gaining a considerable amount of knowledge!
- Phillips Orchards & Cider Mill: If you or your loved one are seeking a gorgeous orchard and cider mill to enjoy in late autumn, look no further than Phillips. Roughly three miles from US-127, Phillips has a wide array of drinks, pies, and produce to relish.
- Studio Retreat: Featuring works from local and national artists alike, this art studio and gallery were created for everyone. It not only offers art classes, but art therapy too — particularly for people with illnesses or dementia.
If you or your loved one would like to visit Lansing as well, there are plenty of entertainment options available in Michigan’s capital, including Impression 5 Science Center, the Michigan History Museum, and Potter Park Zoo.
Everything You or Your Loved One Need
There is no doubt about it. You or your loved one want to receive the most personalized and compassionate care possible. To ensure that remains the case — while also providing everything you or your loved one need — Grace Haven offers two living options: assisted living and memory care.
Both options are always customized according to you or your loved one’s exact requirements, too. As a result, each of our residents’ needs and desires are consistently fulfilled.
- Assisted Living: When a resident joins Grace Haven’s family, they have certain necessities. Regardless of what they are, our assisted living option was created with every need in mind. From various forms of assistance (bathing, incontinence care, medication management, mobility, and oxygen) to 24-hour licensed support, Grace Haven is here for you or your loved one. Day in and day out.
- Memory Care: No matter which type of memory impairment you or your loved one have, a steady, helping hand is not only welcomed. It’s necessary, more often than not. To provide this steady, helping hand, Grace Haven uses the following elements of StoryPoint Group’s Connection Points Memory Care Approach:
- Beacon: If a Grace Haven resident is about to transition, a light will shine outside of the community, ensuring visitors are respectful upon entering.
- Connected: New Grace Haven community members can move in from Monday to Thursday — when pharmacists and physicians are available, leading to a smooth beginning during the next chapter of their lives.
- Employee: Since Grace Haven employees are consistently trained, they’ll be fully prepared to serve you or your loved one.
- Family: Loved ones will always have the support systems they need, enabling them to ask questions, learn tips, and remain involved with their relatives’ journeys.
- Nourish: A snack bar and see-through, mini fridge are available for all residents, 24/7. Scented oil aromatherapy is used before each meal too, while red plates are also provided, each of which increases residents’ appetites.
- Resident: Every residence features each resident’s short biography, ensuring their guests (especially Grace Haven employees and residents) will know more about them.
In addition to these offerings, Grace Haven has many amenities. A beauty salon and barbershop. A library and business center. Delicious, chef-prepared meals. Endless events.
Through all of these options, you or your loved one’s next chapter of life will be full of friendship and joy!
Enjoy Life to the Fullest at Grace Haven — and its Surrounding Community!
Over the years, Grace Haven has become known for its tight community. Everyone is family and, in turn, our community focuses on building relationships with every resident.
We are committed to enhancing our close-knit community even more, as our residents continue to become family members. To achieve this goal, Grace Haven regularly provides numerous events for them to treasure together, including the following.
Fun, Fun, Fun!
- A Mountain of Marshmallows: This summer, residents felt like kids again, as Grace Haven hosted a Marshmallow Party. Several types of s’mores combos were created, resulting in endless laughter, sticky fingers, and wide smiles!
- A Twist on Trick or Treating: In early October, our staff members dressed up as bears and handed out treats to residents. There’s nothing quite like some “beary-y” good fun before Halloween!
- Crush and Gush: During late September, our residents savored the great weather at a “Crush and Gush” meet and greet party. They met new residents and once again felt like kids, while drinking Grape Crush.
- Melt-in-Your-Mouth White Chocolate: White chocolate fans were absolutely spoiled during a white chocolate taste testing party, which occurred in September. Let’s just say that their sweet teeth were definitely satisfied!
- We Love Zumba!: Exercise. Fun. Socialization. Zumba classes offer a little bit of everything, as was the case in September. Aside from Zumba, participants had a great lunch as well!
