Assisted Living Communities in Mount Pleasant, MI

"EVERY staff member has been so pleasant, friendly, welcoming, and helpful. I can't say enough about how good the staff is to both the residents and their families. The facility is bright and cheerful and my mother-in-law's room is very large and beautiful, with large windows and lots of space. "

"My mom has been in both independent and assisted living here, and they've been gracious and accommodating in helping her (and her family) adjust to her changing needs. Both environments are warm and staffed with caring staff. Residents are encouraged to participate and stay engaged, and there are always lots of activities to choose from, including field trips. The activities and events really are top-notch and very impressive. It's been--and continues to be--a nice home for her, and they work hard to make it as homey as possible."

"The facility has just gone through a beautiful renovation. It is lovely and so comfortable for the residents, The rooms are so comfortable having their own bathrooms and little kitchen areas. I did not eat there, but the food always smelled delicious and I know they gave the residents what they wanted and special treats. The staff were all so wonderful and caring to my sister-in-law while she was there. She was not always easy to care for, but they stayed on top of her needs. The had fun and creative activities for the residence, from music, doing their nails, tea parties, happy hour, and special crafts for holidays. There are outdoor places to sit and the staff often will have special activities or treats outdoors. Mt. Pleasant is a nice town with many restaurants and activities with the college right there."

"I visited my sister at Green Acres Mt. Pleasant and shared lunch with the people there and it was lovely. They were very welcoming with a very comfortable feeling. They gave lots of support. I had stew for lunch with a biscuit, a good salad, a lemonade, and chocolate cake. We asked a couple of people about maintenance and they said "Oh, you'll love him. He takes great care of everybody." At Green Acres Mt. Pleasant, you pay the price and that includes all the assistance. They have a patio and they were putting furniture out today. It was almost 70 degrees and sunny and warm. It was just wonderful. One of the biggest reasons why we chose them, was when you walk in, it looks homey. You walk down the hall and they have fake tall trees and ivy and stuff to make it look like you're walking down a boulevard."

"I have been to New Hope Assisted Living LLC. You have to be ambulatory to go. It’s very nice, but people who are not ambulatory or can’t walk, or use a cane or a walker, they can’t live there because of the small staff. It’s very nice though. They only have like 12 to 18 people or something like that. It’s very nice. It is out in the country, and a lot of the people have their little birdfeeders so they can watch the birds, flowers, and trees. It’s very nice for an elderly people who like the country or has always lived in the country. I like it, but it wasn’t what I was looking for. "

"We had an amazing experience with our mother's stay at Applewood. The home is small and homey, which is what our mother loved. The staff was so caring and attentive. We were always notified quickly with any changes in her health. Beverly felt so much love as did we from the staff. Kudos to Applewood - they are the Best!! "

"Fountain of Love is only two miles from my house. They seem to be quite friendly. They have a deck and a really nice facility for showers and bathing in wheelchairs and a walk-in tub. Fountain of Love is a small place. My mother hasn’t actually moved in there yet. The staff came in and visited my mom twice and will move her Tuesday. Fountain of Love has a homey atmosphere. The residents seem pretty much at home. "

"I like Margaret's Meadows, and I might pick this place for my father if I need to. They have a large open area where people can watch TV. There were cards and puzzles out and things the residents could engage in. They make all the food fresh. It was good to know that they either have a blender available or something to make sure the food is soft, which was one of our concerns. I would rate them the highest; I was very impressed. I met with the owner and got introduced to some of the staff members. They were engaged during the meal time when I was there, and a lot of the staff was helping people sit down to eat. Everything was nice and clean, and the place looked warm."

"I personally want to extend my thanks to the management and all the Care Aide staff members for making my wife's 83rd birthday a very special day at your facility. My thanks to the staff who decorated the dining room with birthday banners, birthday signs, and birthday hats to make this an even more special day for my wife. I also wanted to thank the staff for the hospitality that they gave to my family members who attended this special day. I understand that several of the Care Aide(s) bought a birthday cake as well as a gift for her out of their own money, to make this birthday an even better special day. On behalf of myself and my family, thank you again for the compassionate care and love you gave my wife not only on this special day, but all the days she is in your care. I also wanted to note that during the 10 months my wife has been a resident here, the other residents who had a birthday all received the same type of support and care for their special day as my wife did, which clearly demonstrates the level of everyday compassionate care you have for all the residents in your care 24/7."

"We went to Michigan Masonic Home for my husband's parents. We looked there about a year ago, and it was absolutely beautiful. We looked at the assisted living part, and everything was first rate and very nice. They had beautiful facilities and great staff. We just visited for the day, walked around, and saw all the different examples of apartments that they had. Then we ate a meal there. Because of the pandemic, his mother was never able to go there because they were not accepting new residents. And by the time she could go there, she couldn't. And then she passed away. The food we had was very good that day. The staff were very helpful and very knowledgeable. I thought the rooms were professionally laid out. They had apartments and then they had rooms, and they were very well done. They had a beautiful chapel, different restaurants, and three different dining rooms. They have lots of activities for the residents, and I was overwhelmed by all of the nice grounds, activities, and all the things they had. They have a library and an in-house health clinic, and they bring doctors into the clinic, which was very nice. They have specialists there, so that was good. Everything about it was very well done. I just can't say enough good about it. The lady who took us all over knew all about the rates for each room and layout. She was very knowledgeable. If you're affiliated with the Masons, they have a better rate for you, of course, because it's through Masonic Pathways and the Masons. It was very, very clean. They have three or four floors. They have a skilled nursing unit, too, but we didn't see that because at the time my in-laws felt that they didn't need that. They just wanted to be in the assisted living part. They have all levels of care. They have independent, assisted and then total care. They even have their little version of a fast-food place, and that's where we ate. It was really good."

"My mother-in-law has moved in. We chose it because it was small and close to home. The cleanliness and upkeep are very good. They do games, bingo, crafts, and nails. I did not try the food, but my mother-in-law said it was very good. Their staff are wonderful. They have a beauty salon. I don't think they have an exercise room."

"The Horizon Senior Living is nice but outdated, has been there a long time, and a little dreary. It was also more money. The staff was very nice."

"McKellar Adult Foster Care is clean. They're very caring, and they have all home-cooked meals. They have rocking chairs on the covered porch, so you can sit outside and enjoy the weather. They have individual rooms with individual bathrooms. They have a room where everybody can congregate to watch TV or play games. They do games weekly. It's been so far a great experience. The staff is very caring. The room is large and holds all the stuff my mom needs, her bed, two chairs, a dresser, and her TV, and the bathroom is sufficient. The people that work there are very caring and very giving. They help her only with showers and sometimes with getting dressed. They do bingo, Euchre, and movie nights where they do movies and popcorn. It's a good value for money."

"My mom is in the memory care area of Pioneer Golden Estates. They've put her there because they have more staff in the memory care and she needed quite a bit of care when she first got there. They are very warm and friendly. Everything's just been very good and inviting. As you walk into her studio unit, there's a little hallway, a closet, a bathroom where they have their own shower, and then into the main room. She also has a bay window, which makes it nice. The dining area has a nice atmosphere. I've been there during meal time and the food looks very good and smells very good. They have a hairdresser that comes in, an in-house physician, a podiatrist, and an activities director that has different activities going on such as musicals and bingo, arts and crafts, and exercises. They have a beautiful outside patio area that's covered where the residents can go out. The residents seem very happy as well. The staff is just inviting. They go out of their way for the residents. It is a newer facility, so it's kept up well and very clean. Everything's great."
