Welcome to
MediLodge of Clare

I arrived at MediLodge of Clare for a fractured hip and immediately felt welcome. My rehab was the main concern of all staff; they assisted me in all my needs no matter what they were. My rehab was very good with some follow-up at home. I was offered to participate in all activities. If I ever need this kind of care again, I would ask for MediLodge.

I would like to thank all the CNAs that work hard and I take my hat off to the chef- the food has been spot on. Hats off to Shannon for helping me with my issues. Hats off to Justin and Jamie to help on the weekend and holidays to get me stronger. Hats off to Tim for giving me a ride on the side by side. Thank you all for being so helpful!

Kimmy Hines and Ed are the best CNAs! Therapy was great! Anlee and Sandra were tough but they were amazing with me. The rest of the staff were very nice too. The nurses were very helpful and I had a great roommate---the girl from Lake Shannon. The resident advocate was cheerful and happy.

My Mother, Helen Heintz, Spent the last year of her life in the Memory Care Unit at Medilodge of Clare. To have to admit a parent in to a nursing home facility is not only a very hard choice- but a scary choice for the family. The process of admitting her and help with the financial issues from Kelly Grossett were amazing!! Kelly walked me through every process and always had time for my questions or to assist me She was a true blessing in a very confusing process. I will always be grateful for her professional wisdom and help!!! Of course as a family- your concerns jump to all the bad press that Nursing Homes have received and the horror stories you hear from other friends and family. NOT the case with my Mom. My Mother was treated with the utmost care and dignity for the last year of her life. We found the facility to be clean, functional for her needs and happy to say- her needs always came first. The Nurses called to report any little issue that may have occured and kept me very informed on her condition. We sisters were there on almost a daily basis and never observed anything to make us question her care in any way. Mom was well taken care of and you felt the affection and love from her caregivers for her. What a gift to us and mom. The staff was always more than willing to take the time to discuss Mom’s condition and answer any questions we had. When Mom passed- several of her caregivers at Medilodge of Clare attended her funeral. Mom died in June- in December a Christmas ornament was left at my house in remembrance of her- a gift from Medilodge of Clare. They continued to warm my heart and remember Mom. I have the highest regard and respect for all the staff and caregivers at this facility. I would recommend Medilodge of Clare to anyone who needed this end of life home and wonderful care.

Hello, I was asked to write about my experience with Medilodge of Clare when my mother, Carol Cotton, was a resident there. My mother was in the Dementia Unit. I was there several times a week, along with my brothers, who also came at different times. I saw nothing but caring people taking care of my mom. Megan Fry is wonderful. She is so caring. She kept the residents busy with activities, she was always doing something different, like hat day, or dress up day. The people love her. The nurses and aides were very good and sweet to the patients. They were always updating me on my mom’s health conditions. I was very nervous to send my mother to a home. I had taken care of her at my home for several years. After i put my mom in Medilodge of Clare I knew that i made the right decision there was no question about that. Of course I would've liked my mom to live with me but i could no longer take care of her. The rooms were very clean. I miss the time going there since my mom passed away. It was her home away from home.

The staff at this facility were great. My overall satisfaction with MediLodge of Clare was good. If I need to ever come to another facility for care and therapy, I would choose MediLodge of Clare.

Hello, my name is Russell Pettigrew. I would like to give praise to the whole staff at MediLodge of Clare. they were very helpful in my stay here and everyone made sure all of my needs were met.

Thank you so much for everything and I love you all so much. So long!

My stay here was very good and the staff was the best. Love them all.
