This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. The latest standard survey recorded 17 findings, above the MI average of 9.8. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Medilodge of Grand Blanc receives highly polarized feedback, with many families praising the cleanliness and friendliness of the staff, while a significant number of reviewers report severe neglect, including unaddressed medical needs and hygiene failures. Several families have shared traumatic experiences involving the rapid decline or death of loved ones shortly after admission, citing issues like lack of oxygen, bedsores, and poor communication. While some visitors find the facility welcoming and professional, others warn strongly against choosing this location for long-term or rehabilitative care.

Key Review Excerpts
“My Mom was a patient at Medilodge of Grand Blanc for 5 weeks. During that time she went to 3 parties (2 Christmas & 1 birthday). She had a manicure and even had her hair braided by the staff.”
“The staff is amazing upon arriving the next morning her A.M. nurse was crying with me. I felt at ease knowing she is in GREAT CARE!!”
“For weeks they were using diapers and encouraging her to soil them because apparently it’s easier to let her lay in it than assist her to the restroom.”
This facility meets both EveryPlace staffing reference benchmarks. Higher staffing is generally associated with stronger day-to-day care.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
