"I absolutely love this facility. It is privately owned and operated by some really great people. I have a friend that lives here. He is relatively independent however, he must have twenty four hour supervision due to a learning disability. My friend, Mike, has been in several different homes and this has been the best one for him. I do believe he is here to stay. He has been living in this particular place for three years and has done fabulous. Mike enjoys being independent and is allowed several options concerning his daily plans. When Mike first came to this facility he was a bit skinny. Not anymore, as the staff that are employed here are wonderful cooks and I do believe he has gained at least twenty pounds. Mike has his own room which is very important to him as he does like to have his alone time. He enjoys making jewelry then having staff take him to different craft shows and flea markets to sell his wares. Mike seems to have come such a long way since living in this facility and I am so proud of him and the staff that work here who are compassionate and caring. I couldn't imagine him anywhere else. "

"My visit to Tendercare was fine, and my mother-in-law was there at the time. The staff seemed really nice, and the place was comfortable. She liked everything except the food and the time she was in the nursing home doing rehab. The rooms are fairly small, and the grounds looked like they were well taken care of. "

"Northwood Meadows - A Senior Living Community was a well-managed very clean facility. It's very spacious. The rooms were very well organized and set out. It looked like they had a very active community there and activities for the seniors. It seemed reasonable for the price; it just was not part of our price range. They have small studio apartments. They have a variety of rooms. The staff who accommodated me was very kind and very knowledgeable about the situation there and the situation with the residents. It looked like they were just under a remodel, so things were looking good and updated with the electrical and everything. It was very attractive. I saw that they were having some games in the community room."

"My sister-in-law moved to The Heartlands. What I like best is they really worked with me. I had them over from Ohio to Michigan, and they were really very helpful in helping me understand what needs to happen, and how it needs to go. They were very upfront and direct about what they needed and it was really good. Usually, they do an initial assessment in person, but because she was in assisted living in Ohio, they did a Zoom call with her. I was impressed by their customer service. Her apartment is fairly new. The whole place is only two years old. It's great. I would call it about a room and a half. They have all kinds of things that they work with, what they need, and what they can do. They have a cook on site and she's the head of the kitchen. My sister-in-law has been very impressed with the food. They try to get you moving as much as you can. They're trying to get her as capable as she can be without pushing her too hard, so that's been good, too. She could eat all the food some days. So it's good food inside. They have an activity director there that is really active."

"My mother is in Autumnwood of Deckerville and the care is pretty good. They give updates and they have a monthly meeting for each client there, so everyone can get caught up on their own families and what's going on. They do whatever her insurance will pay for, including the therapy. Her room was fine before when she had a roommate, but I believe they moved her and she doesn't have a roommate now. The place is locked, you have to get somebody to let you in and let you out. I was there once myself for rehab and the food was good. They have a chef on duty and he's good. They have a room to get them all up and they play bingo, listen to music, watch TV, and they have a lot of games and things that they play with the ones who want to. They have an exercise room, they have a TV room, they have a game room, they have several different things like that. It's definitely clean."

"Timberline Lodge Inc would have been a very nice place; however, they don't accept people in a wheelchair. We were not aware of that before the tour, so therefore we couldn't place my brother there, but I was very, very impressed with the place. The staff and the residents appeared to be happy and pleasant. The rooms were very comfortable. There's a bed and a dresser, and you can bring your own TV and a reclining chair if you wish to, or any other type of chair. When I was there, they were watching TV, some were reading, and some were just relaxing and meditating. It's a very nice assisted living home, and it appeared to be very clean."

"My Mother has alzheimer's and they have a wonderful locked facility. Their care is kind and they use redirection very well. It is extremely clean and they take great care to be sure my Mother eats well. "

"For the most part I felt like this place had several good workers that cared for the residents. I saw good teamwork among the workers and good communication. The staff really cared about the residents. I would gladly refer someone to this nursing home. I was impressed with the building and am excited to hear that they recently added on more room to the facility. There were many activities available for the residents and the food was good. I felt like they took good care of my Grandmother when she stayed there. The facility smelled pleasant and I was happy to find my Grandmother clean and comfortable every time I went to see her, which was quite frequent. Overall, the atmosphere was good. The only thing I can really complain about is the safety alarms that frequently went off; however, I realize they went off to keep the residents safe. "

"My dad is at Courtney Manor. He is getting excellent care and he seems to be adjusting well. I have had several phone calls with the staff, they are very caring, and they're very self-conscious about making sure that I get every update that I need. He says they feed him very well, so he has no complaints. As far as I know, there has not been many issues with his room, so I would assume it is being kept clean, and he seems to be comfortable. They do have activities, however, right now, with the COVID restrictions, they're keeping everything to a minimum, so he really hasn't done too much of that. We're hoping as soon as COVID restrictions are lifted he'll be up to do more the activities and stuff."

"My brother is at S&D Senior Living Home right now. He's getting physical therapy and occupational therapy there, and he has a visiting nurse two or three days a week. I get to visit him every week. The facility is relatively new and the lady who runs the home used to work in mental health, so she has a vast knowledge of the types of people who need assistance in living. There are five other men in the community and one woman. My brother's bedroom is almost like a private area. He has a living room, a dining room, a bedroom, and a bathroom. He is on the south end of the building, so as far as I'm concerned, it's a good arrangement for him. They provide his meals, they help him with his bathing and showering, and somebody is there 24/7. The last time I was there -- I believe it was Black Friday -- at dinner time they had pasta salad and a beverage. They only serve home-cooked meals, rather than food from some type of food service. They prepare it all from scratch. The place is very clean. They don't allow the residents to eat in their bedrooms because they're all carpeted. They served my brother a snack too. The weather has been cold here so they couldn't be taken outside, but I have taken him out two times since he's been there."

"Pinecrest owned by Fred allows hospice clients. The meals are excellent and he has excellent caregivers working with the clients. Fred treats the clients like he would his own parents. It is a small house so the clients feel right at home. My mother gets very good care with lots of attention. I can visit anytime. "

"My husband is at Fisher Senior Care and Rehab Center. I like it there very much. The staff have been wonderful. It's a very clean place. There's no odor in the place. They call me when they have to make a major change and see what I think about it. I would very much recommend it. However, the only reason I'm requesting a change is because I don't drive. It's hard for me to get over to see him, and I would like to see him every day. My husband has been very limited in what he can say, and he can't walk. He is put in a wheelchair now once a day, and they are trying for more often. He just fell out of a wheelchair because he bent over, so they're trying to get another wheelchair. He's very limited right now. I have talked with the therapist, and they do things with him. They want him to do more, but he's very, very weak. I can't take care of him, and I'm grateful that there are places. I think this is a good place. I like the way they talk to him. I think the value for the money is good."
