Back to School Wisdom from MediLodge of Clare!

Having my rehab here at MediLodge was a wonderful choice. I felt very at ease and at home here. Every one of the CNAs was so friendly and helpful. Two of them (Kendra & Kathryn) did everything that I asked of them no matter how crazy the request was. The nurses always had time to listen to my concerns and answered every question I asked. The physical therapy team was amazing. I am now able to do things that I thought I would never do so soon after my surgery. When I had to talk to one of the administrative staff, I was treated with respect and was never talked down to. I would recommend MediLodge to anyone who needed rehab and as a great place to recuperate. Thank you to everyone!

This is my second time here for recovery and my family [at MediLodge of Clare] greeted me with open arms. Like before I was taken care of and my complaints were taken care of as well. I am leaving here and it feels good to know that I can come back and live better. Shannon, my resident care advocate is the best! Anonymous

Staff has been overwhelmingly supportive. I was never worried about who was doing my care. Everyone always jumped in and helped with any of my issues.

Kimmy and Audrey were excellent and very caring. The therapy department was always helpful.

Service is excellent, took good care of me. Kimmy Hines, she is very knowledgeable. Therapy was so good to me. Everyone was so friendly to me and my wife. I sat out there in front and everyone would say "Hi Ted!" That really means something---like we belong here. If anything ever happens again, I will be choosing this place!

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.

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.
