Nursing Home Communities in Howell, MI

"Mom had been in 2 other assisted living and progressed to needing a lot more assistance. Caretel could fill her need. At 101 she came in during Covid and never got it. That says a lot as to the prevention in place. The facility is very nicely decorated. The staff were pleasant and she had a few that would become friends to her. Everything was supplied for her. No furniture was needed either. The cost was within her budget which was a big help. She was a proud Marine from WWII and they displayed her photo in the Honoring wall. She passed away on July 4th this year. Her end of life hospice care came in and were amazing. We were kept well informed about every step. "

"My husband moved into WellBridge of Pinckney just before the holidays. The building looks new and attractive. He's getting very good care and the people that work there seem quite committed to doing the best for the residents. He has a private room. They have the housekeeping people come in every day to clean up his room. The food is good. The staff is very friendly and helpful. If I need something or want something, they make sure that I get it or they help me take care of it. I would recommend them. Over the holidays, they didn't have the full staff because people have days off and weekends. So it was kind of the worst time, but all in all, everybody did as much as they could to make everything OK."

"The doctor, nurses, aides and all of the staff at West Hickory Haven provided my husband with not only excellent care but compassion and caring not only to him but to our family as we visited him. When there we noted the care and kindness and caring that they showed to other patients as well. They are an excellent facility with a wonderful, caring staff. "

"It was clean, smelled nice, and was very organized. The staff was friendly, professional, and informed. It was good place that my mother could have been. The rooms and apartments were spacious. The food was appetizing. They had choices for dinner. I thought they had a chef on staff. The nurses were friendly. The nurse-patient ratio is probably four or five to one, and then they had CNAs too. They do different kinds of games. They had an arboretum and wild birds. They have best physical therapy and occupational therapy. They had board games night. I thought they had book readings and a book club. They had cards you had to have to access places in the facility to visit your loved ones."

"My sister is in a Medicaid facility called Medilodge of Milford. She has been there for 8 months now. The facility appears clean and well-staffed. Our family members are well taken care of and the expense is reasonable. They had a fair amount of Medicaid beds when we were looking. The room has to be shared and I would call it a hospital-like setting, for lack of a better word. They have physicians and nurses on-call and on staff. They also have physical therapy. They have activities but nothing major. My sister is not an active person so they may have other activities that I'm not aware of. They have a couple of common areas with television and movies and a couple of reasonably large activity areas. It's a fairly large place, one story, and they seem to have the right amount and the right type of equipment to handle an individual who needs an awful lot of assistance. Their billing has been pretty spot-on, too. It gets a little confusing with Medicaid but nothing major. The staff is very accommodating, too."

"My husband moved to the Regency of Whitmore Lake. When I first talked to them on the phone they were so nice. When I went out and checked things out and I walked through the facility, the nurses went the extra mile for their patients. I've seen this firsthand, and they are right there on the ball with my husband and the other patients. They're good to me. The place is clean and it doesn't smell like urine when you walk in. The administration, those nurses, those people there, they have gone the extra mile to try to help me because they see that I'm in need also, just like my husband. I assume they're good people out there and they work hard to try to please the family of the patient and the patient. They have wonderful activities. They have this little band that plays the music and exercises what they can."

"My brother was the latest of many relatives requiring assisted living or rehab. Fenton HC is hands down the best facility I have ever seen. From admin, to medical care, to therapy, to caseworkers, each specialist went above & beyond to make his stay the best it could be."

"My father was in South Lyon Gardens after he had a fall. He got excellent care from the moment he got in. There was no tension in the place, there was calmness, he got whatever help he needed right away, and you could see the difference in him. The people were so caring, the physician and the therapist were good. Everything was very clean, he had enough space to go around, and I felt he had more assistance. It was organized, everybody was on the same page, and it was focused on what my father wanted."

"My in-laws are residents of Mission Point of Holly and we liked it. It's a small place and brand-new, they recently rebuilt it. It has 66 beds and only 22 are occupied right now. The staff is friendly and helpful, and they offer activities to the residents."

"Durand Senior Care was really nice. It seemed really clean, they were very attentive to the patients, and very nice and helpful. They know their patients by name."

"My mother had required rehab numerous times over the last few years. The first few locations we tried did not measure up. The first time admitted to the Legacy at Westlake facility, we were hooked. The staff was very caring and rehab team was excellent. Working with mom to get her back on her feet to the best of their ability. The rooms (especially the last one) were spacious, clean and inviting. The food, either in room or in the dining areas was well prepared and tastefully presented... and we cannot say enough about the staff. All interactions witnessed (even when they didn't necessarily know we were present) was caring and very friendly. They took great care of mom while she went through her rehab (numerous times her last year). As a family we are very grateful... thank you eternally, her son... Carl Jr."

"We toured the Chelsea Retirement Community. It was beautiful. I thought they had several dining rooms. They had a swimming pool. They had a beauty salon. I saw one of the rooms. It was just very, very beautiful. They were very nice. The staff was very nice, informative, and knowledgeable."

"My brother had a traumatic outcome post hip replacement. After a second hip surgery he required sub acute rehab for 5 weeks. We had no intention of returning him to the facility he initially stayed at after his first surgery as it was a nightmare on so many levels. God opened the door and our brother took residence at Wellbridge of Novi on 6/7/25 thru 7/15/25. We were beyond pleased with the love, compassion and support our brother experienced from day 1. I could try to mention the team members individually bet there were "stand out" people serving residents throughout this facility. Our brother was safe, loved and valued by all team members! Nursing, Dietary, Cafe, PT/OT, Housekeeping, Social Work...this is indeed a Gem tucked away on W. 11 Mile in Novi. We would not hesitate to recommend this Wellbridge to anyone...it takes a village and they get it done!"

"I can't say enough great things about Regency as Bluffs Park. Their staff - from maintenance to aids to nurses to admin - are professional, proficient, and caring. They consistently went above and beyond while caring for my mom. The facility was kept clean and their activities staff was always welcoming. My mom love getting her nails painted and receiving cards that she could give to others. You can tell employees take pride in their work. "
