    Attentive staff, engaging activities, joyful

    I can't say enough about the attentive, compassionate staff - they became a second family and treat residents and families with real dignity and respect. Activities are outstanding and engaging (music, outside entertainers, themed events like BBQs and Mongolian nights), and meals are mostly home-cooked, farm-to-table and fun - though I've heard occasional complaints about menu choices and pricing. My mother loves the care; life here feels comfortable, secure and joyful.

    About The Porches

    The Porches is a family owned and operated community that stays open every day, always with staff on hand to help around the clock. This large group home sits out in a quiet, wooded part of Michigan and can serve up to 20 aged or physically handicapped residents at a time, with a license number AL690394101 from the state. Folks live in roomy suites, choosing from a studio, a one-bedroom, or a one-bedroom with a patio, each with big windows for looking out over the trees and wildlife. Every suite has its own front porch where the daily mail comes right to the door, and some rooms have patio doors that open straight onto the courtyard. People here can join in for group walks, gardening, movie nights, music from their younger days, and plenty of activities put on by the residents or the wider community, all meant to help people get to know each other. Meals are fresh each day, cooked by the in-house culinary team, with healthy options and ingredients grown nearby. Mealtimes and activities are chances for folks to see friends and neighbors. There's also a barber and salon on the property, an arts room, and paved paths for walking. When residents need help, staff offer kind and attentive care, always ready for small or big needs, with a 24-hour call system in place and support for daily activities. The Porches is wheelchair accessible and works to create a place that feels like part of a growing family, taking a personal approach for each person's care. People can find health services including support for dialysis at nearby centers. The Porches covers independent and assisted living services, including memory care and nursing home care, and it's a continuing care retirement community for those who are hoping to stay somewhere long term. Residents can see spiritual and local community centers not far from the campus, and there's also a life enrichment program to help meet social, physical, and spiritual needs. Folks can find The Porches online, including on social media and through their website theporches.life, where people can see more about what daily life is like.
