What to Consider About Assisted Living in Lake Orion

It has two assisted living facilities, but seniors have 51 other options in nearby communities. All facilities are licensed and regulated by the Adult Foster Care and Homes for the Aged Licensing Division. This state government body ensures that facilities providing lodging, meals, supervision and personal care to older or disabled people comply with all state regulations and required standards of care.
