Heartland Health Care Center-Fostrian

Heartland Health Care Center-Fostrian sits over on 540 Sunnyside Drive in Flushing, Michigan, and you'll find it's mainly a senior living community for folks who can't quite do everything on their own anymore, and they do seem to have quite a bit of help to offer, whether someone just needs daily assistance or more skilled nursing care, plus they even handle memory care, rehab, and offer hospice support. The place has a nursing home part that got a 1-star rating from Medicare and Medicaid, so it might be best to check that out if you're looking for nursing services, though overall, it's rated 5.1 out of 10 in Flushing and ranks about fifth in the city among its peers, which is something to remember. The residents get cared for by trained staff who are around all the time, so families usually know there's somebody close at hand, and they do have care plans that are made to suit each person's needs. There's medication help, bathing, dressing, and even more involved therapy like physical, occupational, or speech therapy, and short-term rehab services for folks who are trying to get back on their feet after something like surgery. Assisted living rooms are mostly studios, and come with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable TV, air conditioning, and Wi-Fi, so people can stay comfortable and have what they need, and there are walking paths, gardens, all-day dining run by professional kitchen staff, and activities both scheduled by the community and started up by other residents. There's also a spa and sauna, a fitness room, library, and game room to give people something to do, and folks with diabetes or food allergies get special meal options. Heartland Health Care Center-Fostrian takes people in wheelchairs or using walkers, provides parking and transportation help, accepts Medicaid and Medicare financial help, and has about 50 certified beds available out of 140 as of June 2025, but it's not a full continuing care retirement community so keep that in mind if you're trying to plan long-term. Respite care's available too if a caregiver needs a break for a few weeks. There's some info online but not much by way of fancy brochures, so the best way to see if it suits is to check it out in person and talk with staff, especially since the ratings show some things worth looking at more closely if skilled nursing's a big need.
