Assisted Living Communities in Dowagiac, MI

"We really liked Maple Lake Assisted Living & Memory Care. It was nice. The staff was very nice and very helpful. I saw the menu and the lobby. There was a huge library and a fireplace area. It was just a nice community area. We got to peek into a room. It was a resident's room so we didn't really go in, but it looked very nice."

"Emeritus for my mother is just like being home. She has a very lovely, comfortable room. The staff is excellent and they have the best activity director that I have ever met. He is absolutely wonderful. He has so many lovely activities for all the residents. He makes it his personal agenda to get my mother to participate. I cannot say enough about the staff. They're all amazing, very loving and caring people. They treat the residents as if they were their parents. "

"I recently had the opportunity to visit StoryPoint and attend their on site Sunday Mass. It was nice to see so many residents in attendance and participating. The Life Enrichment Director was excellent. He was so attentive and responsive to the residents needs. "

"My mom has been living at Whitcomb Tower Retirement for 11 years, and right now she's good. It's a very old hotel in the downtown area where you have an individual room. My mother has a nice two-bedroom with a living room and a bathroom. The décor is from the 1800s, and they live right along the shoreline on the bluff of Lake Michigan, so there are places to walk. They have one-bedrooms for the nursing floor and a dining room for that nursing area. My mother can go downstairs to a really nice dining room and have her food there. There's also laundry. They try to have some entertainment come in once a week, plus bingo, exercise, book clubs, and outings."

"I went to Tanglewood Trace. The size of the community was favorable. The different levels of care were impressive, even at the hospice level. The staff during the tour was knowledgeable. She was very forthcoming with information about the facility and additional resources that we could access to help with cost and care. Some repairs were needed, but they seemed to be in progress, so the condition of the building was good. It didn't smell like urine, which is a big plus. There was plenty of room. It's spacious, but for members of the community who have mobility challenges, that spaciousness could also be a challenge for them."

"I stayed here. The staff were helpful and sensitive. The CNAs and aids were professional. The quality of the food was excellent. There were also a lot of activities during the day, they were good at organizing activities."

"The people here were very attentive and helpful. If it doesn't work out with the other facility, this is where we want to go. The place was very friendly and clean."

"Harmony At Elkhart is a very nice place. The director was nice, too. They were very caring and concerned and stuff like that. They showed me around. They gave me a chance to ask questions. They told me about the facility itself and what was offered."

"I have been to Brookdale Portage twice to look at the place and I'm actually going back there with my son. It was a very nice place. I liked that they had larger bedrooms. The facility looked lovely. It was very nice, clean, and very neat. The staff has been there for many years. I was able to talk to some of them, who have been there for 17 and 19 years, and that tells a lot. The food was delicious. The chef sat at the table with us, gave us a beautiful salad with vegetables and fruits, and everything was cut and displayed beautifully."

"I visited Bickford of Portage. What I like most about Bickford of Portage is the location, and they followed up. They have pretty much the same room as the other place. You have to bring your own furniture such as your bed. They also have indoor spaces, a beauty shop, and transportation."

"My mother was diagnosed with dementia and after a fall I spent a year and a 1/2 caring for her in her home. It quickly progressed and I ran out of the means to meet all her needs so we moved her into a memory care facility. It was very obvious in little time it was not working out and I was left with little options on how to help her and where to turn. That’s when I came upon StoryPoint. From my first phone call and tour with Jeff I could see the love, passion, and caring community they offer right away. My mother wasn’t local, but Rebekah and Jamie handled all the details and made getting her moved in so smooth for not only her but us as well with ease and peace of mind. The staff is kind, and helpful whenever you have a need or concern. They truly love their residents and care about their well being. We’ve experienced everyone from the executive director on down stepping in and helping one another to get a task done for the well being of their residents and no one’s needs go unmet. From the things to do, beautiful garden and home like settings they have many ways to keep residents engaged. They love on my mom like one of their own, and the entire team goes above and beyond for their residents, on when her birthday they decorated, had treats and celebrated her day because they truly do care. I wish we would have found them at the very beginning, but even though we didn’t, I am beyond grateful to have them apart of our lives now. I know my mom is in great, loving hands when I can’t be with her and that we have found the perfect place. I can’t recommend StoryPoint enough. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts."

"Storypoint Oshtemo has exceeded expectations in every way. We moved my mom to the assisted living facility 10 months ago. She did not want to move out of her home and was initially very resentful at having been made to move. Every staff member at Storypoint gave 100% every day to help my mom adjust and eventually become a happy participant in the community. Not only is the facility clean and pleasant, but the large variety of activities that are offered every day truly provide something for everyone. The staff is unbelievably kind and make such an effort to get to know every resident. They were so compassionate during my mom's adjustment period and my mom is more socially engaged than she has been in a decade. I can't imagine any place better for a loved one at this life stage."

"I visited Woodland Terrace of Longmeadow. The staff was very good. They have bus trips and bingo. The rooms were very adequate. The ones that I looked at was excellent and large. Security wise, it was fine. "
