Rainbows over Michigan

I chose MediLodge of Howell for myself after I lost my leg to a bone disease. I have always heard it's a great place. The therapy, nursing, and admissions departments were all very helpful! Lisa, a nurse, was nice and understanding. Cathy, a nurse as well, was understanding and always there to talk to. I have had a nice and wonderful stay. I have had my problems and every concern and complaint has been corrected. The staff is always on their toes and two steps ahead.

My family chose MediLodge of Howell for my grandmother, Loretta Sparks, and I was so happy they did! Jody and Natasha are specific team members that stood out because they are so friendly and caring! I met them at the Pink Party and they stood out to me because of their hard work. My great grandmother was a patient at this facility and the staff are outstanding! They are so catering and accommodating and so nice! The staff at the Pink Party in Howell were super fun and friendly! I would recommend this center to anyone!

I came here after ankle joint replacement (surgery). I cannot still use my left foot as I am not allowed to weight on it for two more weeks. However, physical therapists showed me how to get on an out of a wheelchair without using my left foot and also how to use a knee roller properly. I am going home and able to get around by myself! (The people who wor here are very helpful and pleasant!)

I checked into MediLodge of Howell after breaking my right wrist in a car accident. While at the facility I learned to eat, dress, and write my signature with my left hand. I'm excited to get home to my pets, but my compliments to the staff who have taken very good care of me and given me much attention. This facility has a humanitarian approach to senior citizens, which I deeply appreciate.

I am on an AVAP and MediLodge of Howell was the only place who took them. The specific team member that stood out was Wendy in Housekeeping! She goes above and beyond to be sure everyone has everything they need.

I give Howell five stars! Especially, Ken he was the best he was very polite and respectful.

“Medilodge has become my home away from home. I have Multiple Sclerosis which makes it impossible for me to always remain safely at home. Every time I return I see the same smiling faces, my second family. The entire team from the therapists to the chef work together to customize programs that fit my needs. I am valued, respected and treated with dignity. Medilodge is a beautiful facility that always exceeds my expectations."

My mother, Joyce Brownlee suffers from late-stage dementia and Alzheimer. My brother and I have cared for her around the clock for over 5 years and she now has progressed to the point that we cannot care for her ourselves anymore.

We have visited 14 facilities looking at overall cleanliness, staff to patient ratio, activities, and 24-hour nursing staff/doctor care etc. Your [MediLodge of] Howell facility exceeded those requirements far ahead of any facilities we previously visited.

She had an emergency and needed rehab last week, decisions had to be made rapidly! In our extreme difficulties and worries over the last week, I would like to recognize two employees at your Howell facility that were always happy to take my calls and answer my deepest concerns. These employees also rapidly and painlessly accelerated our acceptance and admission process into the facility, reducing some of the anxieties associated with our mothers overall care. So to that point, Joey Morganelli and Natasha Cook should be recognized for there professionalism and exceptional job! Although we still have ongoing hurdles (Initial Care Conference) today, as we are concerned about some of her medications and their side effects, diet etc. I feel better that the nursing and doctor staff will excel as well as these other employees have. Best,

"My wife and I are so glad we chose Medilodge of Howell for my rehabilitation stay... The nursing staff was excellent - they were caring, personable, and always willing to offer their assistance to ensure that you were doing ok and checking to see if you need anything. I was also very happy with the Physical and Occupational Therapists that helped me every day to gain strength and balance."
