Sugarbush House

My mother-in-law loves all the staff in the attention she receives. She has a beautiful room with a large window so she can view her birds at her birdfeeders.. There are new owners, so I understand. It will take some time for major changes, cosmetically, and structurally, but they are on it. It’s in a very beautiful area in Flint Township, very nice older building.

My mom has been living here for over a year and loves the staff, activities and house. The house is very inviting and the staff is very focused on safety, cleanliness and fun to ensure each resident have a great daily experience. Thank you to Paul the supervisor and the staff who make each shift nice for our mom.

I toured Sugarbush House #1. It was like three different houses. The one we went to has a lot of ramps and stuff in it. My mother uses a walker, so that wasn't going to be a good place for her at all. They said they have people that can help them and stuff. It was more like a group home. Each has a small bedroom, and then they would share a bathroom. It's just like an older home that has been modified. The staff who assisted me with the tour was nice.

Sugarbush House #1 was a much older place, and it was not attractive at all. However, the staff, the young woman I talked to, and the people I saw interacting with the folks, I'd give them a five. Depending upon your lifestyle, your regular lifestyle, it could be very, very nice for some people. It used to be a great, big, white house, it was across the street which used to be in an area which was fabulous 20 or 30 years ago and things changed and the building that it was in. It just kind of overlooked a parking lot. They had a nice little deck out back for people to walk out onto. Aesthetically, it wasn't my type of place. The people appeared to do very, very well, the few residents that I saw there seemed to be happy. The staff seemed to be engaging. So that part of it was pretty good. It's just, it wasn't pretty enough. I saw someone's room and it was crowded with their stuff. They brought their things in and it was clean. It seemed to me they had a half bath in their room and then the shower was down the hall. So they must assist everybody with their showers and things, and I didn't like that.

Sugarbush is a wonderful place for your loved one to reside. Cleanliness is very important to me and this place is always very clean on any given day. The staff is very friendly and loving towards all of their residents. I love the personalization sugarbush offers their residents.

I love The Sugarbush House. I think there is five houses altogether. They are in the same neighborhood area. They are big houses, and all the residents have their own rooms. They have common areas like dining rooms and living areas. It is very homey. They are all houses, and there is a small amount of residents in each house. The house where my dad is only has six people. It is adult foster care and assisted living. Dad has his own room. It has a nice bedroom with a closet. There is a chair and a TV. They all have cable TV. They get three nice group meals a day and snacks. They have nurses that visit and check vital signs. It's just a very homey environment and not institutional. It's just very warm. It is literally a house. I just like Sugarbush better than the bigger facility because he doesn't do very well in big, institutional settings. So I prefer the smaller group home. Mostly it is just interacting with the people who work there and the other residents. They don't have any set group activities, but the relatives can come and visit and take the resident out whenever they want to. Most of the people have issues like Alzheimer's or some kind of help situation that requires them to need help, so they don't really go out and do a lot of things like that.
