9 Memory Care Communities in Eaton County, Michigan

We visited and were very impressed with the Independence Village of Grand Ledge. In fact, we thought we were going to go there. We are sort of familiar with the area itself because we have family who are down that way, and they said it's really nice there. The people were very nice there. COVID was really rampant at the time we visited so we couldn't really tour the whole building, but we were able to see some pictures. They have nice wide hallways. We're going from 3400 square feet down to fewer than a thousand square feet over there. We didn't try the food, but the people we talked to and who gave us the tour raved about it because they have a highly rated chef there. The place looked like it was brand new; I think it was built around 2000. It was very clean and well kept. They kept things up so we were impressed with everything that we saw. It's limited only because of the size of the apartment, but otherwise it's very nice. They are pet friendly, too, and they have activities scheduled all the time. They have a bus that takes you wherever you need to go within a certain limit.

Ant city... Ants everywhere. They just say call the front desk? Get an exterminator!! Is there somehow I can post a pic? This place is way too expensive for what you get and don’t get!!

My father moved into Bickford of West Lansing, and we were very pleased with it. The move-in was smooth; they even helped us set his bed up. Their community has a big van and it went to pick up his bed from the other community he's moving in from. They're super friendly, all the caregivers took the time to talk to him and they know their names and our names. We're extremely impressed. He has done exercise, the men's luncheon, Halloween party, and watching the football game with the guys. They have a bus and do outings also. The grounds are gorgeous, you walk into a big porch that's decorated with rockers, chairs, and pillows, and we've watched the grass being always cut and trimmed. It's just beautiful outside. In terms of pricing everything was spilled right up front, there were no secrets and each room size has a price. They have a scale of care, and my dad ended up in level two. If he starts going higher, we can start doing his laundry and his room cleaning to keep him in that level longer by taking some of those functions on the family. So we're really pleased with the way they operated, it was all upfront. The staff is amazing. They take time in making sure that they live by their mission statement and make sure the people are happy and living by the moment.

Brookdale Delta was very nice and appeared to be very well run. I was impressed with the people. Everything was nice. The person who assisted me was excellent. The dining area looked nice. People were eating at the time we went through, and it looked good. It's expensive, but I think the people do a very nice job.

I visited Independence Village for my mom. It was clean and new, and the tour lady was very friendly and professional.
