Independent Living Communities in Waterford, MI

"We went to American House Village at Bloomfield. It's a nice place, but it's not what we were looking for. The floor plan was a little small, but it was OK. They showed us the common areas and a one-bedroom apartment. The staff who assisted us and gave us the tour was very nice. The place was very clean."

"Independence Village of White Lake was in a nice, little complex with what appeared to be a very eager and helpful staff. I got the overview brochures, and we did a walkthrough of one of the apartments and a quick walkthrough of some of the facilities. I saw a basic one-bedroom apartment that was open and available, the dining facilities, the exercise facility, and the group TV room."

"The facility in West Bloomfield is fantastic. and has exceeded all expectations. Staff is friendly, very accommodating and address all issues promptly. Residents order breakfast and dinner 7 days a week from a menu prepared daily by a chef and sous chef and served by courteous wait staff at your table. Daily life and activities at All Seasons WB is like being on al never ending luxury cruise. My family member is in her 90's and we wish she would have made the move years earlier. She has a new and active life."

"My mom moved to Golden Grace by Majestic Residences. They've been very caring. They're also very good at helping with the transition because we just moved there. The food was very good. There was no smell. Everything was clean and dusted. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming. It's not a large facility, but for a group home, it's laid our very well."

"Rolling Hills Retirement Community is a brand new place, and it's beautiful. It's not fully occupied. They have everything you would want. They have three meals a day. It's beautifully appointed and my friend is very happy there. It was very, very nice. I just don't think it's worth $50,000 a year. It's $4200 a month with three meals, housekeeping, and beautifully appointed rooms with a full kitchen, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. I have nothing against it. It's just I couldn't give up my condo and go to that. It's 55 and up, so this is for people who are independent. I only met two people, and they were very kind and very warm. What I liked is they have a lady who lives there permanently, so there's always someone there at night. They were going to start a home health care company on the premise, so if you would need physical therapy or if you need someone to stay with you, you can hire them. It's a very, very well-organized company. I ate and the food was very good. They have maybe 50 to 60 people now and they hope to have it filled by the end of the year. It's very well appointed. They have staff there 24 hours a day. They have a maintenance man on call if you need somebody. They have a chef and he comes to the table and asks you if the food is good. It's all cafeteria-style, so you have to go up and get your food. They will have a sit-down later on for the main meal. I can't complain about anything. They have a room to watch movies. You have individual leather chairs and they have meetings in that room about the facility. It's beautiful. It's very, very nice, but it's not for me."

"My sister picked American House the Village Senior Living. The staff is very friendly. The rooms are well-maintained and clean. The food could be better and better served. They have room for improvement in that area. We go on trips to the local stores; they have a happy hour and an activities director who does cards and trivia questions, Bingo, and all that kind of stuff. "

"Everything was very good. There was no problem. My father was there for six weeks. He was happy there. The food was good. He enjoyed it, and he ate everything when he could. He had a room, and it was nice. "

"This community is one of the finest in the area, most beautifully decorated, inviting, and very clean. From our family's initial visit, Jason and Anna were warm, engaging, and encouraging. Our parents loved their apartment , the amenities, the activities, and the fellowship of their neighbors right from the start. My father's comment just a month later was "I love it...we should have been here long ago!" The staff quickly became like family and we noticed that they were empathetic and really cared about the well being of the residents. Thank you Flourish for providing a clean, well maintained, beautiful home for our aging parents!"

"The tour I had at American House Elmwood was great. The facility was excellent. It's at the top of my list. Jessica was phenomenal during the tour and even answered a lot of questions I hadn't thought about. They gave a sample of some cookies, which were excellent. The place was very clean and the layout was very good. I liked the 24-hour nursing care there. They have the shuttle, and they have the transfer. I liked that my father is assigned a table, so if he doesn't show up for a meal, it would be noticed."

"Brookdale Novi had a very comfy and homey feeling. They have galley kitchens in all the apartments and a counter across them. The galley kitchen was wide enough that you could go in with a wheelchair and turn around. The food was excellent. The salesperson was very accommodating and caring. The staff member called me and I like that approach, because it shows that they really care about me. All their meals are included in the rental price of the apartment, which I liked. It's a two-story building and they have a lot of people there, including more people in my age group because I'm only 62. The only negative is that the doors in the public bathrooms are hard to open when you're in a wheelchair."

"My grandparents live in StoryPoint Novi. They are very accommodating. I always am able to go and talk to somebody if I'm having a problem with any service or anything like that. The people here are very nice, from the residents to the employees. I really don't have any bad thing to say about it. It's a nice place. They have daily activities and different programs. They have a two-bedroom, two bath, and it's really spacious. It overlooks the Jewish cemetery and it's really a nice view. The apartment is laid out really nicely to where they can move around. It's nice that they have two bathrooms, because if one is occupied, there's another. They have a pub, so there's like cocktail once a week. They have bingo. There's celebration of monthly parties. They do outings, they go to Walmart, they go to Kroger's, they go to restaurants, you sign up for that and it's just a lot going on so you can always find something to do. There's Wii bowling. They have ice cream social on Sunday. They have church programs for people who want to go. They do projects where they make jewelry and door hangers. They celebrate the holidays, like, for Memorial Day, they had a barbecue for the residents. They have the residents decorate the Christmas tree. For the veterans, they have a wall of honor. There are pictures of the veterans in the building and they have their pictures from when they were in the military and backstory on how they served or how long they served. It's just a beautiful place. They are independent, but they have 24-hour care right now and it's just working out. Everybody is always willing to pitch in, even when it's not even their area. You don't have to worry about your loved one because if they're out in the community socializing, if something happens, somebody's always willing to pitch in and help out. I haven't had anything bad to say about any of them because they're always there. They're approachable and always willing to help. They can have more food variety kind of thing. I'm not saying they eat the same thing every day. It's like a rotation of the same things. There's always a meeting where they say, like, what would you guys want? Or what would do you guys like to see? They're always looking for their input for new activities or things that they might like. My grandma can afford it and she likes it here, but it's too expensive for me. People stay because they're comfortable here. They like it here. They like the staff, and they like the residents."

"I don't like the setup at Brookdale Southfield, and the staff was not very friendly. The dining area was OK, and the rooms were good, but the kitchen just feels so small. They were playing something down in the dining area, but I don't like it because if the patient can't get down there or doesn't feel like going down to the dining area, he won't get a chance to eat. The place was decent, but they just need to change their menu. The staff during the tour was OK; I thought you're supposed to see some helpers for the patients, but I didn't see that. "
