"The staff at The Avalon of Commerce Township was outstanding. The amenities and facilities were top-notch. The staff was very informative and very helpful. They offered more post-tour assistance, so I'm still in contact with them. They had a full range of amenities and activities for the seniors to keep them active. They had a gym, a salon, a movie theater, and outside activities. They took them shopping and stuff."

"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 toured Brookdale Northville. I found that their floor plan for assisted living was different from all the other ones that I had seen. They had two floors, the first floor and the second floor. On each floor, they had ten residents and each of the ten residents would eat their main meals together. They had a living room and activities room for each group of ten that were in that area. They would have like 30 residents on the first floor and 30 residents on the second floor. They didn't have to go to the main room on the first floor. They could just stay in this area for each hallway. They have like six hallways each. It was very different from all the others. That was kind of interesting to me, that way the resident wouldn't have to go all over the place to find, say the dining room, or something like that, or the activities room. It was all in that area, so they didn't have to walk very far. The atmosphere is upbeat, very friendly, and clean. It seemed like they had a lot of activities. This might have been the same with the other places too, but one of the activities is brain health. I liked how they were focusing on helping the residents. The other part was exercise. They had like a certain exercise program that would help residents because they felt that if they had strong muscles or at least worked on their muscle groups and stuff they would be able to avoid residents having a fall or just help with their mental activity."

"Provision Living at Livonia was beautiful, newer, and modern. Their food menu had excellent choices. My father-in-law would have loved everything on there. He would have been very happy with that. The thing that I liked that the other place didn't have is Provision has an emergency response system. They have fall sensors. They have heat detection. If somebody is laying on the floor in an area they shouldn't be, that will advise them. Both places I toured include a push button necklace, but the heat detection and the fall sensors gave us peace of mind. It was all a single floor. They told me that there's a doctor there three days a week. There is a nurse on-staff. She works over 50 hours a week plus is on-call 24/7. They allow video cameras in your loved one's suite. Just make sure that there's a sign on the outside of the door to let people know that it's being recorded. My father-in-law was thrilled because he wants someone to be able to check on him and he wants family to know how he's doing. For me, those points were very important. We didn't meet as much staff there as we did at the other place, but when we came in, people greet you, and they're friendly. They offer you some cucumber water, which I thought was sweet. You can see a gentleman and his mom, I assume, doing a puzzle right there in the lobby. They took us into one of their rooms that had meeting facilities. We primarily dealt with the salesperson. As we walked through, they did have a craft class going on and we joked with them, "Here's the troublemakers," and people laughed. They were sweet. There were several men and women, which surprised me a little bit. They only had one studio room available. Even though this place is only three years old, they're already replacing the flooring. In the rooms, they're changing out flooring from carpeting to luxury vinyl plank. It's easier for wheelchairs and it's easier to clean up. It doesn't have staining. Seeing how much they were already looking for ways to improve their facility impressed me, like the bathroom layout, the ability to get your wheelchair in, all of that was very good quality. They had large closets. It definitely has a price tag, enough that it's a little breathtaking, but I think the quality that was there was very evident."

"Farmington Hills Inn was very clean and well maintained. The atmosphere was very pleasant and the representative when you first walked in acknowledged you. They're a very attentive staff. They showed me all the facilities, what they offer, and their grounds. They're genuinely friendly and very informative. The dining area was well organized. I observed they had a board at the front door with a calendar of different events that they were doing daily."

"My mother is doing fine at Sunrise of West Bloomfield. The staff members are caring, very professional, and very attentive. The director and the lady that sits at the desk are really nice. It's very well kept. She's supposed to be moving rooms. They have her in a double suite right now, so it's spacious, but she's going to be going in a studio. They clean the rooms twice a week. The dining area is nice. It looks like a restaurant type area. The grounds are very well kept, and there are pretty flowers. It's homey looking. My mom likes the food. They have a main entree, but they give them other choices if they don't care for that. The have crafts, they have an exercise class that she's been going to, and they have bingo. It's kind of expensive. We chose it because of the location, and it was upon a recommendation."

"We toured Sunrise of Northville. What we liked about it was the amount of medical care they have on staff 24 hours a day, and they would accept our little dog. The floor plans are small. You've got to be able to imagine yourself in a smaller place. It's a bedroom, and it's a front room. It's the combination of a small kitchen and dining room. The upkeep was quite good."

"I live in StoryPoint Northville. I have an excellent apartment. They clean my apartment. They have complete food services. They have a nurse on duty eight hours a day, on call 24 hours day. They have one medical pill giver and they have two caregivers on duty per floor. There are approximately five resident apartments per floor. All the services are excellent. The staff is very friendly. We have a dining room. I have better meals here than what I can get outside or I can cook myself. We have a chef who knows what he's doing, and he takes suggestions that make the meals better for people. If you're on a special diet, they take care of it for you. When you come and visit a place, you really can't tell, because all you get is words. You don't get pictures of the meals or anything like that, but once a person visits this place, I can't see how they wouldn't want to stay here. You can have a suite, which is the bedroom in the living room with your kitchen. You can have a one-bedroom apartment or you can have a two-bedroom apartment. That's all the floor plans they have. I live in a one-bedroom apartment, and it is adequate for one individual. It could be adequate for two individuals. All the services that you want are available above the basics. In other words, you can have a person on duty here 24 hours a day sitting in your room with you, if you want. You can have a person who comes all day long and takes care of you. They have wheelchair people and get caregivers on the basic cost to wheel them down to the dining room. The dining is open from 7:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m. The specials are not that long, but you can go in there any time of the day, have a cup of coffee, a hamburger, a hotdog, a cheese sandwich, a salad, or something like that, and then you can get special meals every day. Every meal is different. You have a courtyard out in the middle. The building is basically U-shaped. The one arm of the U is the memory care. Then the center of the U is your dining room and kitchen. The front space is for the non-memory care residents. We do not see the memory care units. They are in a different area altogether. The door is locked so we can't go in, which I'm thankful for because some people have a little dementia here that forgets things. It's nice that they can't go and disturb the people. We have a card room and an activities room. We have a 35 lounge chair seat theater. We have a library. We have activities every day of the week. They're situated for everybody, whatever level you want to be at. We have a Resident Council meeting where all the directors come in and tell us what's going on in the community, what employees have left, what new employees have come on, the problems that they have and how they're correcting them. It's an open forum that we're allowed to talk to the directors and tell them our concerns. You get to know all the directors and their nursing service here is topnotch. I have two problems, one mainly is I fall down. I press my button and they come and see me. They examine my head to make sure I didn't hit my head. At that time, they call the nurse and the nurse either comes in if she's on duty, or she's at home and she's out on the phone talking to us. If I hit my head, it's automatic trip to the hospital. They're here to help you, serve you, and they have the expertise to do it. They have doctor services that come in to this building and you don't have to go out to a doctor. They come in and they will service you here. You have your medication service here that once you get the proper medications they have a pharmacist that will bring your medications right to your door. All the doors are locked at night. To get in, you have to have the passkey on the pad to get in. In the daytime, one door is not locked. That's the front door but the concierge is sitting 10 feet inside that door, and she's sitting at the desk waiting for you to come in. Everybody who comes in this place must sign in. If I leave, I have to sign out. There's nothing to worry about here. If they don't see me, they come into my apartment and say hello. The person who makes an appointment is excellent. She knows what's going on here and she'll take good care of you. The bad point is 90% of the time this place is under full occupancy. There are 60 residents and there are 22 memory residents. The whole building has 82, so we have a nice small group, and it's well staffed and friendly. It is not the cheapest place around, but their services pay the extra price for you. Their activities are good. They have happy hour on Friday and movies, some of them I like, some I don't like."

"My mom moved into StoryPoint Farmington Hills a year and a half ago. It was built not that many years ago, so the rooms are well laid out and modern. Everything is well kept up and has been recently updated. Her walk-in shower is better than any shower in my house! The meals are constantly changing with continual input from residents. There are snacks available 24/7. StoryPoint hosts frequent parties, holidays, and celebrations which offer different and elevated food options in addition to lots of fun activities. The rest of the residents here have all been kind and welcoming. There are plenty of different activities each day to choose from to keep anyone interested. Truly, the best thing about this place is the staff. They are all so very friendly and everyone is helpful. All members of the staff greet you and introduces themselves. From the gentleman who cleans her room, to the extremely welcoming front desk, to the office staff, and to every medical professional on staff. Everyone I have talked to seem to really like their jobs and working at StoryPoint. Everyone will offer to help you directly with whatever you need or find the person who can help you if they can’t. We are really glad that we made the choice to have mom live here. She is really enjoying her new home."

"My husband has been at Fairmont of Farmington Hills. The staff is very attentive and responsive. They're very good here. I don't really have any negatives. My husband likes it here. It's not home, but it's pretty good. His living space is fine. I had to supply some of the stuff to go there, like hangers, toiletries, and a lot of things from home, but I think that's the way it is in most assisted living places. The food is pretty good. My husband is a picky eater, but he likes most of the food here. The facility is very clean. They're very conscientious. The residents here are always doing something. They have chair Tai Chi, trivia Tuesday, and bingo. They have a lot going on. People seem to be enjoying themselves. This is our first experience in assisted living, and it all seems like a lot of money, but he seems happy, and he is safe."

"From the first time Mom visited American House in Farmington Hills, MI, Assistant Director, Lisa, made her feel welcome. When Mom moved into her apartment, her smile returned, her loneliness disappeared, her friendships flourished and she became a member of a very special family! During the time Mom lived there she was treated with kindness and respect by all members of the entire staff. The entire American House staff are truly amazing. We believe they are angels in disguise! I wouldn’t hesitate recommending American House in Farmington Hills! They will welcome your family member with open arms."

"We're quite satisfied with Pleasant Valley Family Care. It's like a nursing home, only it's a private home and they're licensed by the State. They give my husband everything that a nursing home would. It's pretty good right there. I have high respect for all of them. His room is not huge, but it's plenty big. He has a La-Z-Boy chair, a chest of drawers, a table, a bed, and his own bathroom. It's the cleanest place I've ever been. When you enter, you have to either take your shoes off or put on those plastic booties. There is a little porch in the front where you could go out and sit if you want. They have a chair out there, and those in wheelchairs can bring their wheelchairs out to the front of the house and look at the outside for a while. The staff is the best. They have a piano player that comes in, they have a guitar player that comes in, and they have somebody that comes in and does stuff with the patients. It's every week that someone is there."
