Overview of Vineyard Assisted Living

Vineyard Assisted Living offers assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Kalamazoo, MI. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication while a resident maintains a private apartment. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, while respite care offers a short stay for a family whose usual caregiver needs to travel or recover. The combination may be a good fit for a resident whose needs may change over time or a family seeking temporary support.

Vineyard Assisted Living opened in 2018 and has 85 beds. The community is in the Central Business District neighborhood. A Walk Score of 91 / 100 places the area in the walker’s paradise band, meaning daily errands do not require a car and a resident who no longer drives can still get out independently.

Apartment-style housing includes studios, one-bedroom apartments, and two-bedroom apartments. A studio provides a single private living space, while a two-bedroom apartment can suit a couple moving together or someone who wants a companion. Ganton Senior Communities is the owner.
