Cretsinger East

Cretsinger East, one of several locations managed by Cretsinger Care Homes Ltd in Battle Creek, Michigan, gives care for twelve women in a licensed adult medium group home setting, and since 1984, folks here have focused on helping people with disabilities, mental illness, or age-related needs by offering support in daily tasks like bathing, dressing, meal preparation, and cleaning, and the home's got some thoughtful touches like a fenced yard, barrier-free entrances, large accessible showers, free cable TV and Wi-Fi, and a comprehensive fire alarm system for safety. Staff like Jamara Motley work directly with residents, and management includes people like Renee Kelly, who owns the business as the adult foster care licensee, and Beth, the Home Manager, who's a certified American Red Cross instructor and pays close attention to kind, person-focused care. There's a mix of hands-on help with transferring, bathing, diapering, and feeding, and the team handles medical concerns-for example, folks with bed sores, catheters, colostomies, feeding tubes, or who need insulin, even those needing total care and hospice can stay, and there's equipment like a Hoyer lift and shower chair available to keep everyone safe. The place keeps a staffing ratio of one staff member for every six residents, which means there's always someone around to lend a hand or give guidance, and while it helps women with all sorts of daily needs, Cretsinger East is also set up for people who have developmental disabilities or mental illness, and they'll offer specialized programs and contracts with mental health agencies too. The license is current and valid through February 2026, the home's got twelve beds, and amenities and social spots are nearby, like churches, stores, and medical providers, and while Medicare's not accepted unless certified, rates depend on the level of care a person needs, so families can find support knowing there's a consistent team working to keep everyone healthy, secure, and comfortable for as long as needed.
