Assisted Living Communities in Portage, MI

"It is a brand-new facility. They had courtyards where the residents can wander in and out of. I just thought it had a very friendly atmosphere to it. The staff who showed us around was very knowledgeable and very experienced. They have a looped layout so that you can't get lost; you would find your room no matter what because they just go in a circle. They're a pretty simple layout."

"There are several different buildings at Friendship Village including a nursing home, assisted living building and a dementia assisted living building. What I toured was the regular assisted living building, which I was extremely impressed with. This facility is extremely beautiful and home-like. Residents have private rooms that they can decorate how they wish. Additionally, there are computers, a library, several dining areas that the residents can socialize at. Also there are several activities that are conducted throughout the day the residents can choose to participate in or not. Activities include discussions on major issues, crafting, group outings, and exercise programs. Unlike other nursing homes, there is not a strict schedule that the resident is forced to follow. They can choose what they wish to do and choose when they want to do it. Staff is on call 24/7 in order to assist with ADLs (dressing, eating, toileting etc.) The staff seemed to be very friendly and willing to do whatever it takes to ensure the resident is safe, comfortable and happy.

"I toured Blueberry Hill Assisted Living Lawton. I like that it was clean. The people were very friendly. The rooms were of a good size. They're not tiny, but they're not enormous either. All the meals are provided. The person during the tour was very informative, answered any questions that we had, and generally showed us around the facility. So she did a great job. The people stay in a room. They have activities that you can go on and they have meals that are prepared. The residents don't ever cook. They have three meals a day and a snack in the evening."

"Its a great place from get go. They were able to fill all the paperwork for my mom and have taken care of her since last 3 years. The rooms are airy, well maintained and staff is very courteous and kind. Food is whole some and nutritious. It is a great place for my mom who has enjoyed staying there ever since. I can trust the staff to do the right things. My mom's safety has always been on top of their mind. Highly Recommended!!"

"The rooms felt personal, cozy, and inviting. Meal times were highlights, offering not just tasty food but a chance to connect. And the staff? They were the heart of it all - always there with a smile, making everyone feel truly at home. A++++"

"It was not very big. They have a dog that roams around the premises that I knew my father-in-law would like. The staff seemed to be friendly and helpful. The bedrooms and the dining room were nice and clean. They play bingo and do outings with the other residents."

"Bickford of Battle Creek was very clean, and the staff was very helpful and answered all my questions. The two-bedroom apartment was good. The bedrooms don't have doors. It was a nice layout with a little kitchen in the middle. They had everything from a game room, puzzles, family room, dining room, and a weight room or exercise room. It was very nice. It's in a convenient location."

"My uncle is comfortable at Kelly's Hillside Manor. He likes the other people who live there. He likes the guy who owns the place who also takes him to all his doctors' appointments. My uncle shares a room with a fella and they get along really well. The owner's wife is from the Philippines and she does all the cooking, so she cooks Filipino food and my uncle really likes it. The owner takes them out for a pizza once every two weeks and asks them if they want to go to a movie and if they do, he takes them. Don, the owner, is a really great guy who cares a lot about the people. He always talks to them and listens to what they have to say."

"Outside, Fountainview didn't looked like a nursing home because it was really nice looking and I really liked that. The people there were very good and it was cheaper. "

"Friendly and caring staff with exceptional support for residents. "

"Heritage was very nice, but it’s an older facility around 70 years. It’s well-kept up, but it’s very modern. The buildings are new and well-kept, but the building itself is old. It’s comfortable and welcoming. The apartments were adequate. They have a lovely dining room, and the food we had was excellent. We didn’t meet as many as residents, but the staff that we met especially Maria -- the girl that showed us around -- was a gem! "
