My mom is in Cambrian Senior Living Tecumseh. She's in their memory care because she has dementia. I reached out to some people, and some people from church had recommended it, so I went to see it. It's pricey but it's really nice. I don't know how old the place is, but it looks like it's brand new. It's clean and it's very well kept. They also have different levels of care. They're really good but expensive. She's only been in for two weeks, going on her third week. They have restrictions with going in, so I've only been in there once to see her, and everything looked fine. From what I see, the staff is just so kind and so nice. She also says she likes the food. They keep her busy throughout the day. They just told me some of the things they do. I don't know what she's getting, but that's what they claim that they do there. The layout of the facility is very nice. It's like a triangle and the rooms go around it. In the middle, there's a courtyard where they have really pretty flowers and places to sit down in the shade. The residents can go in and out but they're basically locked in; they can't get out. They have another little courtyard, a little area where it's closed in and the rooms are kind of within the rooms. It's for people who don't like crowds. It seems like a nice layout.

I wish I knew the rooms didn't have access to a humidifier. My aunt moved in January 2020 and COVID closed down the facility visiting for over a year. By the time I was allowed in again, I brought a temperature and humidity thermostat that gave me the average of both. The average room humidity was 16%. The families that figure this out can provide a room humidifier but I wasn't told. The unnecessary suffering can be thwarted. Also, after 3 and 1/2 years, she was running out of money and soon to be 99 years old. I asked if she could stay if we promised another year of private pay (she only had 6 months left). After admitting she'll probably go straight downhill from the stress of a move at her age, they refused. "What we do for one we have to do for all," they said. I moved her out the end of July and they were right. She's gone straight downhill and Hospice expects she'll pass in the next couple days. Thanks Cambrian.

We visited Cambrian, it's very clean, and it's a new building. All the rooms have their own private bath and shower. However, I did not see smiling faces there, and that disturbed me. It was expensive, but they have a calendar full of activities, and the rooms were bigger than other places.

Cambrian just opened, and my dad was one of the first residents to move in, so the place is brand new. I didn’t notice any problems or hiccups with the new staff coming in because they trained at another facility in Tecumseh, Michigan. Everything has been extremely positive. I do not have one negative thing to say about this place. He’s been there for about six weeks, and everyone that I have met so far has been really caring and loving to him. The place is kept absolutely immaculate. My father eats an extreme amount of food compared to the other residents, and they gladly serve him up seconds and thirds and whatever else he wants. It is very affordable and located on a large street that's easy to get to and about three miles from a medium-sized, rural city that has everything you could want. There are a lot of grocery stores, pharmacies, and hardware. I chose Cambrian because it was a good place and all of my family could get easily go and see him. The activity room is right across the hall from his apartment, and there is something going on in there all the time; people are laughing and having a good time. They do a lot of field trips and are trying to have a good mix of activities that men like. Most of these places are tailored to women because they are the ones who mostly live in these places, but they have more men here. They are going to do more sport-oriented activities, like going to baseball games, showing games on the big-screen TV, and things like that. They have a full-size refrigerator in his room.

Cambrian was pretty good. They offer activities like a wood shop to build bird houses, crafts, and more. I liked that place, but my uncle didn’t like it. They have a memory care building that is separate from the assisted living. We just visited memory care and didn’t go into the assisted living at all.

The people at Cambrian Assisted Living were very friendly, and the atmosphere was very nice. The rooms were very nice and average sized. It was a newer building, so it was very clean. I would recommend them.

We have my father-in-law in Cambrian Assisted Living. It is close to our home, so we can go visit him. They have excellent care there. We are very pleased with the place. It is a very safe environment for him because he is 94. They have quite a few activities. Everything is really good. We don't have any complaints. They are on the ball and do everything that they have to do to care for him.

I love Cambrian Assisted Living. We really like the setting and the people there. I like their attitude. The dining room is very nice. The only negative thing there might be about it is that they do assigned seating. I like everything about that place except for the price.

Cambrian was my favorite place. It would have been very adequate and aesthetically more pleasing. It was suitable and everybody was very helpful. They talked to me about my mom’s financial situation. All the people I talked to were very nice and they had beautiful rooms there. In the memory care they had walk-in showers that you didn’t have to step over anything. They were big enough to put a wheelchair. I would highly recommend them. I would go there myself if I need to. The staff was very helpful and nice. She gave me a brochure that has a different pricing in there. It had a basic price and then more services that my mom would require.

I visited Cambrian Assisted Living. The facility itself was very nice. The staff was lovely. They gave us a tour, and we saw the whole facility. They answered all our questions. They were very gracious. The rooms were not spacious, but they were clean and well appointed. We went to the dining hall, and there number of things posted on the board as we entered. It looked like they had many things going on. I would recommend it. I thought if someone was looking for a facility, that was a very nice one.

My father-in-law is in Cambrian. It is a beautiful place. People are very nice and very helpful. We are very happy with it. The building out in front is an assisted living, but we are not there for that. They build a brand new section that just opened up in September for memory care. It has very good security. The doors are locked. You have to buzz, and somebody will let you out. There are always people around if you need someone. I am not sure what the number was as far as the ratio of the help to the patients, but it seems like there is a lot of help.

I thought the Cambrian was nice. They had a lot of meeting areas. It seemed like every corner had a living room type area for family to meet. I thought the rooms were a little expensive. They had a nurse on staff which was nice, and one gentleman took me on a really nice tour of the facility. Probably the biggest thing about it was I thought it was kind of pricey. My son-in-law’s grandmother who was there did not like it but that does not mean my dad would not like it as well if he was to live there. The staff was very accommodating. Everything but the price was good.

Cambrian was the only place that got back to my folks. They had a dual occupancy open, and so my dad -- even if there was nothing wrong with him mentally -- is in the same room with my mom. But it is so gorgeous, and the staff is phenomenal. They are so kind and respectful to my parents. My mom with her Alzheimer's can sometimes be so frustrated and irritable, but they just still laugh and joke with her, and she is joking and laughing back with them. My dad would beep them, and they would just come and take care of everything. They are eating their meals and eating better. All the aides and the nurses are just wonderful. They take care of all their medications and are taking care of it all; they made everything smooth for us. They have puzzle therapy that's on the table all the time to work on and game closets too. My mother said she didn't want to do anything, but to my knowledge, they are already taking her for wheelchair rides and walks through the place and taking her down, sitting, and talking with her. They have crafts and other activities. It's only been two weeks, but they've been encouraging, and mom is going to be having physical therapy and occupational therapy, so that is going to take some time too. We had such a hard time getting mom to bathe, but they have a gorgeous bathroom, and she loves it now. I am just thrilled. It has been mostly personal care right now. They take them out when the weather is better and on excursions and stuff. They also have an enclosed courtyard that is really lovely, and in the spring and summer, they take the residents outside almost every day.

Fabulous caring staff, very responsive to resident. All of the staff seem like they truly care about the residents and treat them like family. This is assisted living and they strive to help residents keep their independence. The facility is beautiful and well-kept. Lots of activities for everyone, love that staff even come on days off to visit residents and participate in events.

Cambrian Assisted Living keeps it's residents independent and mobile! My aunt lives here and often goes to activities and enjoys socializing with the other residents. It's almost like a dorm for the elderly! Everyone is friendly and likes to chat, including the staff. Each staff member makes you feel like you're the only other person in the room! The lady I talked to was very friendly and knowledgeable. You could tell she really cared about the people she worked for and with. This facility also invites the elderly in the surrounding areas to come over for dinner and meet the residents. They provide great food and always invite you to come back. Some people have told me that assisted living homes dent the residents' independence, but Cambrian Assisted actually enables them to remain quite independent. It's a very beautiful home with lots of nice furniture. The only negative thing is that my great aunt had to wait a few weeks to get in here as it is often at full capacity and is a popular, affordable facility.

Very caring staff. They go out of their way to help and make sure mom has what she needs. The food is very good and the dining staff makes sure the residents are happy and have what they need. They are always very welcoming to guests.

Great food, aides were very nice and pleasant until health declined. Most of the aides were not patient or trained to handle anxiety, OCD, or depression. They made resident feel like she shouldn't be there and told her she needed to be put in nurseing home. This was not for them to judge. This made the situation even worse for resident and family.
