Communities in Chesaning, MI

"Living Waters Buell Lake was a nice place. Everything was nice about it. It smelled good. It looked kept up, and it's new. The staff was very pleasant, very nice, and knowledgeable. The rooms were nice and big. It looked well maintained. The dining area was nice, big and roomy, and clean. They had a nice area outside for the residents."

"There is always something going on for the residents. The staff organizes lots of fun activities. The staff is AMAZING! They treat your family almost like you would. I don’t worry about my mom now. Her apartment is just the right size for her and does not have a hospital feel to it, which I really appreciate. Grace Haven has a really good reputation in the area. It was actually through other people that I found them. The only negative comment I hear is the price. I honestly feel the piece of mind is worth the cost. Mom is happy and I have no regrets :)"

"The one I choose for my mother is The Pines of Burton Memory Care South. It is a new building. It is very nice. It is in a small town, so the caregivers are very caring and attentive. Sometimes, they may need more people that what they have, but that's just because it is memory care; some nights and days are busy, and some are not. They are not a nursing home, but they do have meds. They are very caring. They have three meals a day. They have two nice living rooms. Sometimes they only have two people there, but that's usually at night. They have an activities director that comes in twice a day. They do exercise with the beach balls, and they do different kinds of exercises. They do bible stories, crafts, and games. They have an in-house barber shop/hair salon, and the lady comes in once a week and does people's hair at an extra cost. They have a theater. It is a small room, but you can have your family in there to watch movies and eat popcorn. "

"Auburn Heights Senior Care was wonderful. I liked it. It's a smaller group of people, and they all eat together. It's very clean. The rooms were beautiful, freshly painted, updated, and had furniture and pictures. They had TV setup. There's a girl that has a program of activities for them to do on a daily basis, and they go on outings. The staff was very nice. The lady running the place was very helpful. I was very pleased."

"We visited Vassar Fields, and it seemed very good. There were people my parents knew who were living there so they were considering it at that time. They had arts and crafts and bingo. They had a room where people could come in, have popcorn, and watch movies and shows. They also have entertainment coming in from the outside. We visited the assisted living part, and I noticed that the independent living places seemed to be larger compared to the assisted living ones. They also didn't have a full kitchen. It was more of a room with a bathroom like a hotel suite, which is nice, but it didn't have kitchen facilities. The facility is also older."

"Toured May 2024! Excellent place for anyone to be. Friendly family like atmosphere. Toured Memory and Assisted Living"

"Of all of the assisted living centers that I have visited, Union Court is by far the best. The friendly environment of the center is what contributes to this the most. The staff members are kind and hard-working which is a great comfort to both the residents and their family members. Transitioning into an assisted living center can be a difficult process but the faculty and environment at Union Court made this process so much easier for my family. The rooms are really nice which is good because it made it a little easier for my grandparents to feel at home in such a new place. Also, the rooms and bathrooms are kept very clean and welcoming as is the rest of the facility. In addition, the meals are very good and the facility provides a lot of fresh fruit; however, the food could still be a little healthier. The meals that were served when I visited were all very high in sugar which was worrisome to me because many patients, including my grandmother, have diabetes. "

"Haven Country AFC is a well maintained facility. The staff there is kind and caring, seems well trained to handle the duties they are assigned as well as take good care of the residents living there. The residents get balanced meals and snacks throughout the day. They all seem to enjoy living there. There is a variety of care provided as this is also a home for the mentally disabled. Unfortunately, some of the residents complain from time to time of getting bored, and some of them rarely if ever can leave the home due to their disabilities that limits them. Most of the residents go on regular outings though, and truly enjoy it when they do. The home is located in the country so the residents get to enjoy watching various wildlife come into the yard. Some of the residents get to walk about a mile down the road, and love to take walks. Overall this home is one of the better homes I know of. "

"Meadows of Owosso is quite a new community and very well-staffed. There are four wings, one of which is a locked down memory care. It has a very wide, open meeting space in the middle with a fireplace and couches. They have a lovely dining room where the tables are set with linen table cloths and napkins, and a menu for all three meals. If there's something that the resident doesn't care for, there are substitutions that they are happy to make. The director all the way to the people clean the rooms to the ones who dispense meds to the chef in kitchen, knows everyone and always call my dad by name. They also know my name and my brother's name. They make a real effort to make it very personal and extremely friendly. They have two nurses who are always there, so they have someone available at all times if something happens. All the rooms are private but have different sizes. My dad is in a medium-sized, carpeted room with a bedroom, closet, and large bathroom with a walk-in shower so there's nothing for them to trip over. There's a little kitchenette with a refrigerator and a sink. They can bring their own furnishings, or you can go into a room that's already furnished for you for a price. They assist him with bathing, changing his Depends, administering all the meds he needs, and checking on him just saying hi, how's he doing and would ask if they can get him a snack. He wears a medical alert so if something happens he can press the buzzer. All of the medical staff members have a phone with them, so that if someone rings the buzzer, whoever is closest to that resident's room can go to the room. They're very cautious."

"The Roosevelt House was beautiful. It's perfect. The staff was wonderful, upbeat, and very informative. We loved everything about it. It's just we're not gonna be able to afford it. They had private rooms with private baths. They had outdoor activities. I saw a beauty parlor, a chapel, a study where they could go in and do puzzles and quiet things, a TV room, and an aviary. Outside, they had a garden and animals like deer, roosters, and chickens. It's brand new, and it's impeccably clean."

"Welcome Home Assisted Living is a warm cozy place. The new buildings are absolutely beautiful. All the rooms are private rooms with a bathroom. My grandpa loves it there. Anytime I come to visit the staff is interacting with the residents that live there. My grandpa loves to dance and play musical instruments and they do all that with him. He loves old music and they are always playing music for him to listen to. I never have to worry about the care at Welcome Home he gets above and beyond care. I cant say enough good about Welcome Home along with the owners. They are wonderful people and make sure the residents are well taken care of. The staff there are wonderful! I cant say enough good about the staff they take such great care of my grandpa! This is where you want to place your loved one. There is nothing else around like Welcome Home. "

"My mother will be moving into Angel Manor LLC. We had a lot of referrals from people that we know who had parents in there. We went and toured it, and it was very homey. It was a smaller residential place. I think their maximum was 12 residents. It just seemed to have what she needed, as far as care goes. Somebody's there all the time to help with bathing, and they provide meals. She can't cook her own meals. The residents were her age, so she would have some more company. I like the location as well because it is halfway between my house and my sister's house. It is perfect. The staff was excellent. She gave us all the information and answered all of our questions. We had her personal cellphone number. We had some questions we thought of later and called her to ask her a few things. She is always available. She said they do care for patients through end of life as well. They have somebody who comes in and does hair and nails. They have bingo once a week. They have arts and crafts. They have music night, where people come in from outside, perform for them, and stuff like that. We were happy with it right from the get go."

"My mom is at Shields Comfort Care. She has a living room, an efficiency kitchen, a large bathroom, and decent bedroom. The staff are wonderful to her. The chef personally brings in the food to her. She has done her nails and hair as well on the community. They do a very nice job to her."

"My uncle is going to move into Majestic Care of Flushing. The residents all looked happy. The place was beautiful. They got a lot of activities. They got like everyday activities and a big board going on of what goes on for all the activities for different people because they're all in different states. It is going to be nice. Each room has its own bedroom. The rooms are nice and big. They're not crowded, they're not packed in, and they're not all dark. They're nice. Each got the TV, the Wi-Fi, and the cable. They pay for their personal needs. It's close to me and it's only like 5 miles up the road. From what I've seen, their staff is good. There's enough of them. They're not spread too thin, and they all do their business. The maintenance looked all good to me. They got a nice salon in there, so that's good."
