Outdoor space on a seven-acre campus

Lakeshore Woods is located on a seven-acre campus in Fort Gratiot.

The community’s website lists landscaped grounds, garden areas, outdoor seating, an enclosed courtyard, and sidewalks around the campus. These spaces give residents options for walking, sitting outside, spending quiet time outdoors, or enjoying the grounds with others.

Lakeshore Woods states that its campus and programs are intended to be accessible to people with disabilities and that accommodations are available upon request. Because individual mobility needs vary, families should ask during a tour which walking routes, entrances, seating areas, and outdoor spaces are appropriate for the person considering a move.

Support that can change with needs

Having different living options on one campus gives families the opportunity to discuss changing support needs with the same community as circumstances change.

The appropriate option depends on the resident’s current needs, assessment, and availability. Living at Lakeshore Woods does not mean that a resident can always remain in the same apartment, and a move from one living option to another cannot be guaranteed.

Families who are comparing communities can also use the Senior Living Community Comparison Guide to compare care, staffing, daily life, location, safety, costs, and future support using the same questions.
