Assisted Living Communities in Three Rivers, MI

"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."

"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."

"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."

"We moved my father in from a sister facility, after my mother passed. I was lucky that there was a studio apartment available right away. The staff has been great in caring for my father (who is not the easiest person). I am updated on important issues, that i asked for when we moved him in. Maple Lake is a smaller facility, so the care is very one on one. Which is great not only for a resident, but also family members. Dad has said the food at Maple Lake is better than the previous facility, so that is a good thing. I highly recommend Maple Lake to anyone who is looking for quality care for a loved one."

"We visited Brentwood at Elkhart Assisted Living. They were thorough, friendly, and detailed, so I guess that's just about what you need to look for to start with. They showed us the facility, and they showed us the rooms. They showed all the features and the activities that they had. The individuals were very friendly and very professional. That's impressive when you see that. They were pretty straightforward and concise with what they were saying, so I think that was a very strong point. The director who showed us the units there said that we aren't ready for assisted living. We are not actually, but we're trying to look ahead to the future. The assisted living facility seemed more like a nursing home facility. It was not something that we would fit into. We're more active and social than Brentwood has to offer. The ones who gave us the tour were very professional. They covered everything and wanted to make sure that they met our needs. They were just very easy to talk to, and made you feel welcome. They weren't just trying to sell you something; they wanted to make sure it was going to be a good fit for the person."

"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."

"It is new. It has nice wide halls and lots of light. It's just more open and it feels less institutional. I saw activities going on. I saw some singing going on and some cardio drumming at one point while I was there. It looks very clean."

"We are current residents of StoryPoint Kalamazoo. The food, activities, and facility are very good. We have been very pleased ever since we moved in. It represents a great place to live out your senior life. My apartment is a little over 1700 square feet. We have all the space that we really need. It's like a three-bedroom. We have endless activities. We go on trips, and we go on lunch and supper outings. We have a music review tonight of the spring music activities. We bring in artists from the university. We had the Kalamazoo Orchestra. Right now, my wife is practicing handbells for a handbell concert that is being held next week. We have a full woodshop, a stained-glass studio, and pottery. They have transportation to all the different things. The grounds are being redone. Inside, the facilities are being repainted and has new carpeting in and new furniture. It's like brand new. The food is very good. One nice thing we have here that most communities don't have is underground parking. It's incredible."

"Friendship Village Kalamazoo is a big complex. They have a beautiful fitness center with a full-time fitness trainer, a nice library, a nice, beautiful dining room with nice tablecloths and flowers on the dining room tables, an art gallery, and there are patches for people who want to garden. They also have walking trails. They have apartments and also garden homes for people who want individual homes. We were pleased with the people who worked there and are living there. The staff was friendly, helpful, and cooperative."

"The rooms are very nice here. The facility seems to be very clean and smells good. The atmosphere is very welcoming, pleasant and peaceful."

"My wife is at Birch Meadows. And she's been in there for about a year. She has to be cared for completely. She is not capable. It's not assisted living, it is 100% care, almost nursing care I guess, probably. I'm very, very pleased. I've had enough experience with them, and I completely 100% content with my decision to place my wife there. They've been there a long time, and they're very caring, and just very sensitive, giving me information on my wife's condition, and what I can do to help. They provide a lot of feedback on what's going on inside. So, I am very, very pleased with the staff. Starting Wednesday, they'd even locking down further, I guess. They don't want people to come. But I haven't really been inside that facility, since the time my wife has been down there, it's a terrible situation, it really is terrible, terrible situation for all the people, for senior people right now. It's killing them, it's really bad. They had someone before the virus lockdown took place, they had someone that would come in, and play the piano regularly. Then they had a pastor that would come in, and give a Sunday morning church. And different entertainers would come in, and they had a magician, and they had a couple of singing groups that would come in several times a month. But all of that went right out the window with Covid. The food, I have several positive comments from my wife down there about the food. And she's a pretty fussy eater. The activities, there aren't any really to be honest, I think internally, I think they do try to entertain them. The staff tries to entertain them, but there's no one permitted to go inside and entertain them or do anything special. "
