Fountainview Retirement Village of Grant sits right off S. Maple St. across from the Rite Aid in Grant, MI, and offers seniors different levels of care and living, because some people want to stay independent and others need help with daily living, and you'll find both options available there with independent living, assisted living, memory care, and even skilled nursing and long-term care. The place is faith-based through Baruch Senior Ministries, so there's a strong focus on compassion, dignity, and making seniors feel both comfortable and cared for, and the staff works hard to make you feel at home, whether that means helping with bathing, dressing, or managing your medicines, or just making sure you have a hot meal three times a day and snacks if you're hungry between meals. They have private suites, shared rooms, and places with kitchenettes and private bathrooms, all air-conditioned, fully furnished, with cable TV, phone, and internet, and you don't have to worry about housekeeping or laundry since they do all that for you, so you have time for games, movie nights, crafts, walks in the garden, or chatting with friends in the dining room. The Life Enrichment team hosts all sorts of activities like visits from school kids, birthday parties, family picnics, performances by local musicians, and even spiritual care like worship and chaplain visits, which many folks enjoy, especially with regular church services and support for end-of-life spiritual needs.
The staff gets noticed for being patient and joyful, helping with medication and personal care, while also leaving space so people can keep their independence, because that matters as you age, and there's always someone nearby in case you need something, with 24-hour care and a call system in every room for safety. For those dealing with memory problems like dementia or Alzheimer's, the memory care program provides a secure, structured environment that helps reduce confusion and keeps residents safe, and there's also an adult day program along with home health and hospice care if you need extra support. Food is a big part of the day, too, with restaurant-style dining, all-day options, and allergy-sensitive meal plans, making sure people with diabetes or allergies don't miss out and that everyone has choices. For folks who worry about money, there's an income-based program to help, and since Fountainview serves as a continuing care retirement community, you don't have to move away as your needs change, which can be a big relief to families. It's a nonprofit, so the focus stays on the community, and it's tied in with other places like Village at the Pines, Cumberland Retirement Village, and Evergreen Terrace Assisted Living, all sharing a mission of quality care and connection. Community events, spiritual support, and friendly staff help create a small-town feel, and the location puts you near local favorites like the Depot Grill, which families appreciate when they come to visit, and the whole place tries to give seniors a safe, loving, and comfortable place to call home.
