"My name is Sylvia Lawson. Steffani out did herself last night, with decorations, with the staff, and Tammy/Dale dressing up to play the part. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. My compliments to the chef as well, and all of this followed by music. It is a pleasure to have you as the head of our dining. Steffani , you are pretty special kid!"

"My friend was at Beaumont Commons, Farmington Hills for rehab. He had sepsis, and when he got out of the hospital, he was not able to do anything. So they got him back to being pretty functional. They did rehab five days a week. It was chair exercises, walking with his walker, going up and down stairs, and doing some machine exercises that they had there. The staff members were wonderful. They were always helpful. They were happy to see me. They would always say hello. They would say good night. They were good staff. In terms of upkeep, the facility was perfect. It was very, very clean. My friend's room was very nice. He was in a private room. In terms of the food, probably 80% of the time, he was happy with it."

"My dad moved into Woodhaven Retirement Community. So far, things are working out very well. The community itself is lovely. The staff members are wonderful, well-trained, happy in their jobs, kind, caring, and patient with the residents. I'm just very impressed. The dining area was very lovely. They have regular dishes, and their food is brought to them. They ensure that the residents like what they're eating and that the food smells great. My dad's room is very nice. He's got a lovely view of a courtyard. He has a private room with a private bath, and it's just the right size. They have group activities, and even if the resident doesn't participate in the activities, they encourage them to be there and be with the other people. My father has dementia and doesn't take part in much, but he seems to enjoy being with the other residents."

"We toured Marycrest. It was very clean. They had friendly staff, and it's a newer facility. They have a dining room, a walking path, a chapel, a computer room, a library, and a courtyard. They have a stove and a refrigerator in the units."

"We visited Oakmont Livonia's independent living. The place was very friendly. The lady who took us on the tour knew everybody by name, all the residents there. Everything is very clean and well-lit. They have benches throughout all the hallways, so if you're walking and you're tired, you can sit and rest. It's very nice. They have a restaurant for dining with a menu, and they have a workout area. They have a walking path all the way around the premises too. They even allow dogs. The people that I came in contact with were wonderful. I couldn't ask for any better."

"Dear Belmar Team, During the worst season of our lives we sought out in a very short amount of time to find a safe place for our beloved dad/husband. The Lord lead us to Belmar and that was an answer to prayer. It is SOOO Hard to be in a position to place your loved parent in a place of any kind but we found that this was a perfect fit for my dad. Thank you Jesus that Tracey took a chance on my dad and kept him safe. We continue to give thanks for the beautiful staff who cared for our beloved dad. My dad was in the memory care floor. We also fell in love with the other residence. I would encourage any family who is facing this dementia disease who is seeking a place for their loved one be involved. Visit often and love on people who you come in contact with. You all blessed our family. Thank you for everything. Blessings on the future families you will serve. "

"I was invited to a luncheon at Fox Run and there was a presentation in their auditorium. We toured the one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments. They were clean, bright, and looked like they had been newly refurbished. You could choose your color and decoration. They had residents who came and sat at our table and talked to us. So, we got a first-hand view of what it was like to live there from someone who WAS living there. The luncheon and the presentation lasted from 11:30 until about 2:30 and it was well done. The food was wonderful. It was excellent. The people who talked to us and we met were charming. The lecture was short and sweet and to the point. The dining room was very pleasant, warm, and inviting. There's also a grocery store and a garden. The part I liked a lot was that it was a very busy place. We weren't just sitting around waiting for something to happen. It was busy all the time and the atmosphere was very friendly. The hallways were clean, bright, and nice as well as the elevators and ground floor."

"Oakmont Sterling is a beautiful place to live with very nice updated building and beautiful artwork. They have lots of amenities like a rec room, exercise room, church services, a movie theater and they have an excellent restaurant style meals. The dining was exceptional and I loved every bit of it. You could cook some of your meals in your own room or buy from different meal plans you could pick from. The rooms were like apartments but they had other options like a studio, 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom."

"We were greeted nicely at Waltonwood Twelve Oaks, and it's a very nice facility. I think we saw a two-bedroom there and it was good. Everything about it was good. They had a beauty shop and a library, and it seemed to me like they had a bigger movie theater in there for movies. And just everyone was very pleasant, very nice. The only problem with that one is the location. It's by a big mall and you have to kind of weave around the mall to get to Waltonwood. I don't know why they put it there. It's a very busy, big mall, especially during winter and things. That would be my drawback there. Meals were included, and it was laid out very well."

"My parents moved into Oakmont Northville more than a month ago. The staff seems to be very friendly. There's no interaction with them unless you need them, but they're very helpful. The grounds are very nice, very clean, and very well maintained. The food is excellent. They have 2 nightly specials, and they get 3 meals a day. They play bingo and they go to happy hours. They had a Mother's Day lunch and that was nice. They do offer an activity bus every Friday, and they go to the grocery store, the Dollar Tree, and the pharmacy. They also have access to a chauffeur if they need to go to dental appointments or wherever they need to be. They also have a doctor that comes to the facility once a week. They have a beauty shop on the premises. They have a theater, an activity room, and a library. The other thing that Oakmont Northville offers is they have emergency call buttons in the apartment. They have four of them in the room, and each resident gets one, either a necklace or a wristband, that they wear. It's a great value for the price."

"I toured Beaumont Commons, Dearborn. I thought it was an easy five stars. I know a resident that lives there. I toured it with him, and it was a community. I could see the association and the fellowship with the other residents. I thought it was nice. It's something that I was hoping that my sister could get into, but I don't know how that one is structured for finances. The staff members were definitely visible. They seemed to be very attentive to their responsibilities, and they seemed to be very available to the residents. I saw my friend's apartment, and some of the rooms. I was pleased with what I saw. They had their own movie theater. They had a little grocery store, gift shop, dining room, and a winery. They had quite a few things. I thought the food was very well prepared. The dining area was five-star hotel level. It was very well maintained."

"I visited my friend in this facility. I found it to be attractive, even smelled ok! The staff and administrator were most helpful, warm and caring. "
