Assisted Living Communities in Byron Center, MI

"It is our choice of facility for my mother. It's the best one we saw actually. I like that it's new and clean. My mom has been there since last week Friday. The staff seems helpful. My mom has an apartment that has a bedroom, a bathroom and a living room. I haven't eaten there but the food looks fine."

"I went here. They were very helpful, and we did get to see the room and stuff, which was nice. It had a little kitchenette, a microwave, a little apartment-sized fridge, sink-type area, and a nice handicap bathroom that was plenty big enough. We didn't go for the smallest room; we went for one that was just slightly bigger, and it was nice."

"My mom stayed in American House Jenison. It was a wonderful experience. They listened to my requests, and my mother was placed in a unit that the majority of the people were still in their right minds. My mom was ninety-five, but she was mentally very sharp; so, I wanted to make sure she was in a unit where she could mentally engage, and they did do that. Everything was good; we couldn't have been happier with the experience. It was short, but what we experienced was good. We didn't get to know the staff very well, but my mother spoke very highly of the ones that she had interacted with. They were helpful and were kind to her. My mother said the food was very good, and she enjoyed the ice cream cart that came around every night about 7:30 every day. It could have used a little updating in some areas, but it was clean, and it was very convenient for everything. They had activities within the building; because of COVID, they haven't started much of the outside, like little outings with the bus and stuff like that. They were comparably priced to other places. My mother had long-term care insurance, because of that, she was able to have a larger room. We did end up having to pay for it because she has been there long enough to collect on it. But, because she had long-term care insurance, she got a bigger room than the average room, which was nice. Compared to the other places in town, they were comparable in rates. They have a beauty salon and a little library. The grounds outside were beautiful. They had a lot of ponds and gazebos outside where the people could walk to and sit."

"I have lived here for a long time, everyone is very nice and I have received wonderful care. "

"My friend is here and it’s a small community. The staff is very kind. It’s a nice, clean place. It’s close to where I live so I can visit all the time. "

"Having lived in many places and having observed my family when I heard about "this place" and visited, I saw exceptional care and training."

"My mother moved to ct last fall and has loved every minute. The staff helped her to feel at home right away. The size,decor, activities, are fabulous. We are so glad she is there "

"My tour at The Cortland of Northview was very good and very thorough. I was concerned because they showed me double beds in a room. They said that that's what my friend could afford, and maybe it is, but I'm looking for someplace he can get a studio or something. Everything was beautiful. It was a very well-kept facility. They had a gym, and they said there were lots of activities. I really like it except for the double bed. It was a very nice community. I visited it several times before. The person who gave the tour was very thorough and very good. She was very informative and very personable. She knows what she was talking about. The outside was nice."

"Wonderful staff & facility. I cannot say enough good things about the staff. Within one hour of my father moving in, everyone stopped to introduce themselves and welcome him. The next day, any staff not working the day before did the same thing. They get to know the resident, their likes, dislikes, and take the time to talk to them. They are very prompt at answering when residents push their pendant. Staff also gets to know the family and keeps them well informed. The entire facility gives a calming, home feeling. Always fresh smelling (no odors) and well kept. Lots of windows. Security is tight but not obvious. They follow COVID protocols to keep residents safe but again its not obvious...just part of the structure. Lots of variety in the food menu. They always have a standard list of food if you don't like the menu item. Kitchen staff know the residents and interact with them at meal time. Lots of opportunities to get involved with activities but never pushed. Everyone receives a personal invite to activities. The facility tour was very informative. They answered my questions before I could ask them. No pressure from the staff during the tour. I visited on my own and than returned for a second & third visit and they were always welcoming and open to questions. If you are considering assisted living, please make Riley's Grove one of your visits. "

"I went to American House Holland and looked at their memory care. The place was nice and clean. I actually got to see somebody who was recently admitted and how they were fitting in. I got to see the rooms, and they were nicely organized and clean. I had concerns about my father, and sometimes his language and his behaviors, and they were ready to accommodate. They're used to it, so it was an overall real good experience. I like that their pricing never changes, so that was probably my biggest selling point. You could go in and you still have the same ratio of staff to residents and there's no change or charge for the changes as they progress. The rooms were nice, and I liked the way that they were arranged. Being memory care, there's no place where the person could go in, and think they're gonna shower in their own room, and they're actually going to be safely bathed. I like the size of their room, because for him he doesn't need a lot of space, and it was nice that they actually had somebody out with the residents trying to get them to interact to keep their mind engaged. I like seeing that person physically out there with the residents trying to engage them and work with them and do the things that sometimes at home, you just don't have time to do. They had amenities there and there was a nice, clean area for the families to come in and safely spend some time with their loved ones. They actually had zero cases of COVID. I asked some of the staff's phone numbers and they were quick to provide them. They had two meals, and they said that they give them two options per meal. In my father's case, less is better to offer, so for me, that worked out great."

"My father has been unexpectedly living here for over 3 months and it has been a great place for him. The staff are super helpful, friendly and attentive. The rooms are bright and clean and the common areas are warm and inviting. As soon as I walked in the door I felt at ease and knew this was the place for him. It's small enough where everyone knows your name and your not just a number. The courtyard areas allow for him to go outside without having to worry that he will get lost. I would highly recommend Boulder Creek to anyone looking for an assisted living facility."

"Its a great place from get go. They were able to fill all the paperwork for my mom and have taken care of her since last 3 years. The rooms are airy, well maintained and staff is very courteous and kind. Food is whole some and nutritious. It is a great place for my mom who has enjoyed staying there ever since. I can trust the staff to do the right things. My mom's safety has always been on top of their mind. Highly Recommended!!"

"Hi Don, Thanks for the great picture of Mom in her new room. Thanks to your staff for taking such good care of her. She is doing so much better than she was when she was all alone. I heard some terrible stories on New Years Eve about other facilities. Robbinswood certainly is the best in my mind. Keep up the great work. You are all appreciated so much! Linda "
