Rosewood Manor

Rosewood Manor sits at 1515 Washington St. in Grafton and has 8 licensed beds, so it's a small, close community where folks can get to know one another pretty well if they want to, and it's run by Capri Communities, which manages a few of these kinds of places, and this one's a single-story building so it's simpler for getting around if stairs are tough. The community provides long-term, non-acute care that's often less expensive than a full nursing home, and it covers options like Independent Living, Assisted Living, Board and Care, and Memory Care for people facing different health needs, including help for folks with dementia or who need hospice care. Rosewood Manor doesn't accept Medicare unless the government certifies them, but it is licensed and watched over by state or local groups, including the Department of Aging or sometimes Veteran's Services, so you know someone checks on things. Residents find things like maintenance-free living, a place for their pets, and rooms fitted with telephones, plus a setup where an expert care team is always on hand day or night to help with daily things like bathing, getting dressed, taking medicine, or moving from bed to chair. People at Rosewood Manor get meals prepared with options for allergies and diabetes, and everyone gets snacks and scheduled meals in the communal dining area, while all-day dining keeps folks from going hungry if they miss a set time, and laundry, housekeeping, and dry-cleaning are included, so chores don't pile up. The place offers movie nights, walks in the garden, planned activities, and safe community spaces that are set up to keep everyone secure, so families can feel a bit better about safety. Rosewood Manor also handles transportation for doctor's appointments or errands, has emergency alert systems in case someone needs fast help, and provides move-in help so it's less stressful to settle in. There's a pet-friendly policy, outdoor walking paths, parking, and both private and community areas, and besides all that, the staff tries to give a supportive home where people can find friends or just enjoy a quiet space, and with a 5.0 rating from 13 reviews, folks seem to appreciate the efforts there, though, as with any place, it's best to visit and see how it feels in person.
