Assisted Living Communities in Brighton, MI

"Chateau of Novi sounds like a lavish castle, but it is actually a pretty modest place. It's located in a very nice area of Novi and the facilities are well kept. I had a family friend who moved here and stayed for an extended period of time. He liked the staff and the amenities long enough to stay longer than anyone in my family thought he would. I will say that the place, although not quite as awe inspiring as its name, was always very clean and it smelled nice. The minimal staff that I interacted with always seemed to be pretty amiable and I couldn't find any major issues with the establishment.This was all within the last year, so I doubt there has been much change. Its location is probably the greatest asset it has going. Novi is a spectacular area and it is very safe. I didn't loathe my visits to the Chateau of Novi because it was clean and there was the noticeable absence of odor that is prevalent in these types of homes. "

"Words to not even begin to describe what a loving home my grandmother lives in. I was extremely sadden when we needed to separate my grandparents after 65 years of marriage, but when I visited Daniella’s all of my worries disappeared. This home is the most loving, nurturing, beautiful place ran by a pure angel. Daniella and all of her staff not only care of my grandmother but they truly love her. The home is extremely warm and inviting. All of the care givers take care of each resident with the utmost respect and love I truly believe that because of Daniella we have been given 2 more years with my grandmother which we probably wouldn’t have if she were anywhere else. I could not have asked for a better place for my grandmother to have spent the rest of her days at. We are truly blessed to have found Daniella and are forever grateful for the love she has bestowed upon my grandmother. Thank you for all that you do!"

"My grandparents live in StoryPoint Novi. They are very accommodating. I always am able to go and talk to somebody if I'm having a problem with any service or anything like that. The people here are very nice, from the residents to the employees. I really don't have any bad thing to say about it. It's a nice place. They have daily activities and different programs. They have a two-bedroom, two bath, and it's really spacious. It overlooks the Jewish cemetery and it's really a nice view. The apartment is laid out really nicely to where they can move around. It's nice that they have two bathrooms, because if one is occupied, there's another. They have a pub, so there's like cocktail once a week. They have bingo. There's celebration of monthly parties. They do outings, they go to Walmart, they go to Kroger's, they go to restaurants, you sign up for that and it's just a lot going on so you can always find something to do. There's Wii bowling. They have ice cream social on Sunday. They have church programs for people who want to go. They do projects where they make jewelry and door hangers. They celebrate the holidays, like, for Memorial Day, they had a barbecue for the residents. They have the residents decorate the Christmas tree. For the veterans, they have a wall of honor. There are pictures of the veterans in the building and they have their pictures from when they were in the military and backstory on how they served or how long they served. It's just a beautiful place. They are independent, but they have 24-hour care right now and it's just working out. Everybody is always willing to pitch in, even when it's not even their area. You don't have to worry about your loved one because if they're out in the community socializing, if something happens, somebody's always willing to pitch in and help out. I haven't had anything bad to say about any of them because they're always there. They're approachable and always willing to help. They can have more food variety kind of thing. I'm not saying they eat the same thing every day. It's like a rotation of the same things. There's always a meeting where they say, like, what would you guys want? Or what would do you guys like to see? They're always looking for their input for new activities or things that they might like. My grandma can afford it and she likes it here, but it's too expensive for me. People stay because they're comfortable here. They like it here. They like the staff, and they like the residents."

"My mother was at OHM for a couple months maybe 3 Up to Sept 1 2016. We felt safe with her care there, The following are pros and cons: The owner wants to keep all unused rent if the patient passes away which to me is pure selfish and criminal, In other words Big places do not do this and will refund 100% of unused rent if the patient passes away. For example,If a full month of rent is paid on March 1st for the month of March, and your parent passes away on March 2, the owner will try to keep all of the rest of March's rent since it is inside the 30 days. That means a new patient will or can be taking over in the same bedroom for the rest of the month while owner receives DOUBLE rent for the same bedroom. Also when we talked to the owner about us moving out, the main focus of owner was all about making sure we pay for the 30 days after the move out notice.. That mattered more than finding out what can be done to accommodate our mother more. The food from what I understand was nothing special, I don't believe the clients were given a choice of meals. Maybe a choice would be too costly and inconvenient for the staff and owner. Overall the care was good and my mother with Alzheimer's seemed satisfied . The house was always very clean and visiting was as convenient as can be expected, The staff seemed very dedicated to providing personal care from what I could tell. The financial cost per month could not be beat from our shopping around. "

"I think that Sunrise in Home Care, in Ann Arbor Michigan is an excellent choice for someone who is independent and who prefers to live independently in the privacy of their own home and who is looking for some outside supportive care and assistance with their activities of daily living for them self, a friend, or a loved one. They provide their patients with an array of supportive services and assistance such as; personal care with bathing, dressing, grooming, meal preparation, transportation services to medical appointments, light housekeeping and laundry services. They provide a skilled and trained team of health care professionals' nurses, cena's, therapist, physicians, and various other supportive services, assistance and medical equipment that is necessary to meet their clients individual needs as PRN. They provide companions, medication reminders and assistance with self administered medications. They also provide 3 hours to 24/7 hours on a daily basis for their clients needs as necessary to fit into their clients' individual plans of care that is assessed by their trained and skilled team of licensed Nurses. In general, I would rank the Sunrise in Home Care with a five stars rating for their excellence and expertise in home care. "

"Aids are top notch, considerate, don’t argue back and forth with residents. Residents are advanced in age many in their 90s. All single rooms no shared spaces. You can text the Director anytime with a concern or management staff. It’s a 24 hour facility."

"Vicinia Gardens was all good except there wasn't enough outside space, and it was too expensive. The rooms were beautiful, but were almost $5000 apiece, and it was just too expensive. Everything was all wonderful, and everybody was great. "

"I would not recommend Cranberry Park West Bloomfield for memory care. I took a picture of the food they served my husband for dinner one night, and it was a cup-sized chili, a small croissant with such a thin layer of either chicken salad or tuna salad on it that you couldn't even see it without lifting the bread, and a juice. The facility was clean. The first thing they tell you is they will keep your loved ones safe, but they did not do that. I was just so upset that my husband spent six days in the hospital until I could find another place to put him, and when we got that done, he only lived about nine days and died, and I blame it all on the fall. Another resident shoved him, went into the wall, hit his head, and then fell to the floor on his hands and knees. I had seen him that day, and he was functioning as good as he always has. He walked, he talked, he ate, and he could express his opinions. After that fall, I went to the hospital and saw him in an emergency room. I could not understand him because all he was talking about was gibberish. There was no program in trying to help his memory. I went in one day, and he was sitting all by himself in the dining room. On another day, he was in the dining room looking out the window. Nobody else was with him. If I had to do it over again, he would never have been placed there. The staff was OK. They were friendly, but they didn't give him much help. All they did was babysit. They didn't keep him safe. He was a big eater, and he would eat anything, but when I saw what they were giving him for dinner, that's all he had. As far as personalities go, the staff was very friendly, but they certainly did not do a good job with memory care. They were not trained for it. The only thing I ever saw them do was play balloon volleyball. They had puzzles set up and Legos and stuff like that, but nobody was ever there to help them. I saw one lady who was working on a jigsaw puzzle by herself. I think with the balloon volleyball, it was just my husband, and when I came in, I joined in, but the rest was all staff."

"I visited here for my mother. It's beautiful, and I think they have a different theory on how to do things. I feel like there is going to be much more dignity and much more communication among the careworkers, so I think that's probably going to be our best choice if we decide to move mom. They have social distancing and masks at all times. We were happy with everything we saw there."

"StoryPoint Fenton is extremely clean and well maintained. Their food is very good, and they have a great variety. The staff is helpful and care about the residents. They have good activities and nice entertainment. We would recommend the facility to anyone needing short-term or long-term care. My husband has a one-bedroom apartment. It's small, but it has a very nice living room with a little kitchenette, a huge bedroom and a great big bathroom with shower. They have some two-bedroom. They also have some that don't have a bedroom and it's all one unit. They have several community areas with tables and chairs. They play cards. They have jigsaw puzzles. They have an area where they always have coffee and snacks for the residents and guests. They have courtyards, which we haven't seen yet because it's been winter, but they will be open soon. They have beautiful furniture out there. They have a huge dining room and a couple of private rooms where you can have family in for special events. We have visited others, but found this one to be the very best."

"I went to Serenity Manor. It's a home with a max of six residents. They have two owners, and one of them lives there. She lives in the upstairs apartment. There is always two to three staff, so you have a great ratio of staff to residents. Currently, none of the residents are ambulatory. Most of them are advanced dementia patients and need to be lifted with a Hoyer. Right now, it's not ideal for them, but that's what they're getting. Right now, advanced memory care is what they're getting now. I couldn't even talk to the patients because they were so demented. It's a higher level of care and a lot of one-on-one. I think one of the rooms is shared. It's extremely clean. When you walk in, you were in the kitchen common area. Off to the right are the dining room and the living room, and then behind the kitchen is an L-shaped hallway with bedrooms. There are two bathrooms, too. It's very clean and very nice. If I had somebody who needed 24-hour care like that, that'd be great. I was impressed with the staff, too. "

"I did a full tour at Symphony of Linden. I did talk to a lady and she gave me a pamphlet and everything. She showed me a couple of different rooms. That was in the main hall itself. The other ones outside were basically assisted living, and I told her we weren't really looking for that because she's been diagnosed with dementia, and I noticed it's getting worse. To me, it was kind of rushed. It was nice. The people were nice. I like how it's decorated. It's not just a plain Jane hallway or anything. I would recommend it. I know my landlord's been in there for rehab and he really liked it. It's clean and very friendly. We did pass by a dining area and it was very clean. We weren't there for a meal or anything like that."
