During my grandmother's failing health, it became apparent she was no longer able to spend long hours alone. My family and I searched out assisted living homes near our area. The Lutheran Home, located in Frankenmuth, Michigan, was the best rated care home in the area. I and my father, went to the Facility to inspect the level of cleanliness, care and overall functionality their home. We found that it was a rather large home, with the capability to hold over 150 residents. There was ample, experienced staff and the home seemed t be very clean and smelled like it had just been cleaned. There was a large dining hall where 3 meals and snacks were served daily. It was lunch time when we arrived and it seemed to be very much in order with two nursing attendants at every table to watch the residents as they ate. The rooms were either individual rooms, or shared bedrooms. The shared rooms had two bathrooms for the shared rooms and a heavy curtain to divide each residents personal space. The staff seemed friendly experienced and the facility had a very calming overall feel. It didn't seem chaotic, dirty or cramped. It felt more like a resort though it most definitely was an assisted living home. There were gardens, a yard, parties for holidays and we were pleased with the place in general. They do take both medicare and medicaid, as the price ranges anywhere from $5,000.00 to $7,000.00 a month. If you live in Michigan, and are looking for a good caring, assisted living facility, I recommend the Lutheran Home in Frankenmuth, Michigan. That's where we decided to place our Grandmother and have been very happy with our decision.

The staff there is great! They are so patient, and they really do care about the residents. The rooms are very nice and well kept. There are several game type rooms, and living rooms. They have an activity planned for each day of the week, and have big special parties on the weekends for the residents. They treat them all so well, and I have never heard anyone ever complain about this place. They are constantly thinking about new things for the residents. They have talent shows, holiday parties (decorating pumpkins, gingerbread houses, valentines etc).

They have great staff there. They really care about the seniors, not just a job. My friend there has his own little apt type space. Every week kids from the school or the boy/girl scouts come and do activities with the seniors, last week they did bowling in the main lobby. They really enjoyed it. The staff always is creating groups or arts and crafts stuff. Jim made me a bookmark last week that he was really proud of. He says the food is great, but ive never tried it. The only thing he doesnt like about living there is he isnt allowed to have any pets. i suppose its for the health of the seniors there. i would really recommend this home to anyone that has a family member in need of extra care, they can definitely provide the utmost care!
