This was my first experience with Medilodge TC. It was very positive. Not only was the staff great with us as a new client, but they appeared to treat other residents with respect. 3 days later, we had our care conference, and everyone I met was very attentive to our needs. I have worked with other facilities and did not walk away with the same positive feelings. If you need the experience of a rehab facility, you should definitely check out Medilodge TC.

We’ve had several friends stay here for short and long term stays. They are always very happy with their care. That is the most important indicator of a great care facility. One of our friends was in for the last years of her life. Her husband visited at least once a day and came to know the staff personally. He always spoke highly of the staff he came to know.

The staff @ Medilodge on Lafranier rd in T.C. were so pleasant & helpful. They explained everything with easy understanding. I feel confident in taking my Mother there for a much needed respite care. I was so comfortable within the facility that if my Mother needed 24/7 care I would definitely consider MediLodge on Lafranier Road in Traverse City, Michigan. Most of the other facilities had a certain smell to them & I would see patients that were complaining about something, the residents there all seemed happy & looking forward to the days daily actives. There was a worker that was going room to room asking if they would like a root beer float or an ice cream cone. Made me think of home & how relaxed the atmosphere felt. Very impressed with everything at the medilodge off Lafrainer Rd in Traverse City, Michigan.

First visit today to help a friend. Had heard bad things about it in the past. Was pleasantly surprised. Staff was friendly, it was clean, and my friend seemed pleased with the services she is receiving. I saw that it is now a Sheldon property which I've had wonderful experiences with in Hudsonville. My only criticism is the bathroom was a mess, garbage on the floor. She had not had her morning wash up yet, so I'll give the busy team the benefit of the doubt there. I'm sure they are understaffed like everyone else.
