Assisted Living Communities in Plainwell, MI

"My mother lived here for about 3 years. I toured several places over the years in the Kalamazoo area and since they were all for profit, as expected they were pleasant while recruiting me. This is a small facility. The staff greets you by name and like family. I was told that when I toured there but didn't really believe it. There are quite a few activities here. Since I paid my mother's invoice, she was always calling me to ask how much she paid for an activity. I was happy to tell her nothing since like most seniors she worried about running out of money. One really doesn't know however until a problem arises how they will respond. This is what happened with my mother after having a stroke. I could never thank the staff enough for the love, support and level of care given to my mother. Over the years I got to know the folks who worked during the day but after her stroke I got to meet several of the night shift as well and they were also wonderful. When they realized my mother would no longer be a resident, it was then they were at their best. It wasn't about the money. It was taking the best possible care of her while she was still there."

"My father-in-law has moved here. The place is small. It is different than a lot of the bigger communities. However, we feel like our father-in-law is getting very good day-to-day care. The people working there are very attentive and very communicative. When it came time to move him into the place, which we did at the last minute, they were very accommodating and extremely helpful to help us get him in there on short notice. Overall, our experience has been very positive so far. My father-in-law is in a room with a bedroom, a bathroom, and a small sitting area. They have three or four activities everyday, which is good. They are taking the residents on outings when they can. My father-in-law seems to like the food too."

"Very welcoming from the moment you walk into the community. Everyone is very friendly. I have my uncle here and he loves it. He says staff are friendly and very accommodating to his needs. The food is really good. I have tried it myself. Rooms/apartments are really nice and it makes my u clue feel like he is in an independent community rather than AL. I would highly recommend."

"Park Place Assisted Living is wonderful. I have nothing negative to say. The staff is wonderful. The majority of my father's caretakers have been there at that particular place of employment for over 15 years. He has no complaints about the food. They have a lot of activities like crafts and games. There's a room where they can go, and they have exercise bikes in there."

"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 mom has been a resident of StoryPoint Portage for 10 months now. It's a very pleasant environment. The staff is outstanding. They're just very friendly, caring caregivers. They go above and beyond. She has just an efficiency. The food is very good. My mom doesn't participate in any activities, but we use the beauty salon services. They have an excellent beautician. There is a very nice courtyard. It's enhanced living. The executive director there knows that we're real pleased with the facility. It's very positive and very pleasant. I just think in general, assisted living and caregiving is just way too expensive."

"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."

"The rooms are well organized and spacious. The cleaning staff is absolutely great! The chef and kitchen staff are fantastic! The activities are varied and frequent with lots of participants. Most of all, the care givers are super kind and loving to the residents. They are efficient and usually know the answer to any question I ask. The best thing is, if they don’t know they find out and get back to me."

"I'm not sure why there aren't any recent photos; this place was entirely remodeled. The new owner really impresses me how he is personally involved in everything."

"My husband will be moving to Blueberry Hill Assisted Living. We had a very nice tour of the place, and the staff was very nice and informative. They also have lots of things for the residents to get involved in. I don't think the assisted living room we saw was the largest, but there was nothing wrong with it. The upkeep of the place was very good, too. We went through the dining area, and it was very clean."

"My Aunt was a resident for several years. The rooms were great; the staff is fantastic!! We couldn’t have had a better experience with Woodlawn and the services they provide"

"The staff at NorthPointe Woods was wonderful. We met with two different people and they were very welcoming. They showed us the whole facility and their units were larger than any of the other facilities we toured. They also invited us to have dinner and we met several of the residents. They have a lot of green space. There's a gym, a game room, a post office, a health center, a salon, and all kinds of activities that you can sign up for to go out in the community. 20 dinners are included in the base rate. They have a cafe on site that's open from 9 until 3 so that you can go down and purchase food. Then they have a coffee and tea bar and hot chocolate and cappuccino that's open 24/7."

"I had a good visit at Brookdale Battle Creek Assisted Living. I was prepared to take my mother there, but she ended up having to go to the hospital. They'll have to do another assessment of her to see if they can still cover her level of care and if it's a yes, then that's where she'll go. I liked the facility. Every person I talked to there was helpful and very engaged with all their residents. It's very nice. The facility is not too big. It's relatively small, but there's plenty of room for the number of people there. There was a music thing going on during my first visit there. When we were moving my mother's furniture in, it was a beautiful day. Rather than having the alarms go off constantly with their residents, they said, "Let's go outside", because they took the residents out into the garden so they weren't being disrupted by us coming in and out constantly. That was very thoughtful."
