“Stopped for tour as there was an open house today. Was pleasantly greeted by Shelly Irish. She spent a lot of time explaining and took me on a tour of the community, and a couple of the apartments. I was very impressed by what I saw and heard. Thank you, Shelly”

“Abbey Park is truly a gem! The community is warm and welcoming, with active, happy seniors who feel safe and supported. It’s a wonderful place for vibrant living and peace of mind.”

“Really nice place. My parents have lived here for years now. I'm so glad they moved here. They had nothing to do where they used to live. They have made great friends and are always doing something with the community. Grandkid time in the pool is a family favorite too!”

How families pay for independent living in Michigan

Most Michigan families start by paying privately, drawing on retirement savings, pensions, and often the proceeds from selling the family home. Long-term care insurance, when a parent purchased a policy years earlier, can also help cover assisted living or memory care costs, though families should check the policy's specific terms and any waiting periods before relying on it. Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for VA Aid and Attendance, a benefit that can offset care costs for those who meet the eligibility requirements, and it is worth asking a veterans service officer about this early in the process since the paperwork can take time.
