Ashley Court of Brighton

The staff have been kind and are competent with my Mom's care. Communication is excellent. The place itself is warm and clean. Highly recommended.

Note I called Lansing State licensing so. Did verify the license's they carry , yes more than 1. Also verified complained of patient rolling off the porch . Also saw the sons post here! Sad place. No staff, One licensed LPN 1 staff on nights to two halls of a total of 20 patients . Poor care. My loved one was there and hated it . She contacted her attorney and wanted her living Will to be followed. She complained of stiff neck and they got into her end of life Med and hospice med wihout permission from hospice or family !!! In less than 4 months they were gone!!! Patients roaming in and out of other patients room, taking many personal belongs, also defecated on my loved ones bathroom floor not cleaned up but towel placed over it until they finished serving lunch . Gross ! There were times when someone forgot to place her oxygen back on her . Worse place ever I suggest you do a search of complaints and you will see where a patient died after rolling off one of their cement porches. Sad very Sad Don’t go by my words but Do Your homework before using this facility . When my loved one had a stroke , massive stroke I was never informed ( I the durable medical in the will) and walked into their room finding my family member slumped over in her recliner Please in less than 4 months I lost my family member. Check out state of Michigan formal complaints . Deaths !!! Call Health and Human Services to direct you to recipient rights office. I know much more than what they were told after serving just short of 40yrs in Health and Human Services of which 26 yrs was in nursing and in Mental Health Nursing. Also in EMS as Licensed EMT. I know what I saw . Grief no grief just care and concern that others don’t go through what our family and my Moms friends saw. HAS NOT BEEN 4 YEARS AS THIS was written 4/2023 Muriel passed 11/29/19. THIS IS NOT MY FIRST REVIEW OF YOUR ?? I REPORTED HER POOR CARE short time after her passing in your place. How can there be such discrepancies in the reviews of your patient care?? Suspicious. I did my homework and talked to the State of Michigan , there were terrible complaints and investigations you can see. BTW my Mom too was locked in her room and she would sit locked and we could not get in as they were locking other residents from entering her room . That is against fire and safety codes and my mom could not ambulate unassisted along with have a lower leg amputation . Big No No! No my Mother had sealed hospice meds for end of life , there was no directive to use her sealed morphine end of life meds . You were to be directed by her hospice nurse or family at the time she had a stiff neck and was over medicated and never came out of it shortly after suffered a massive stroke .

We placed my uncle here after 2 months of being in another assisted facility in Brighton. The care was exceptional! The staff were the MOST caring dedicated individuals I have ever come into contact with. They work there because they love their jobs. The front office staff as well. Please be wary of all the bells and whistles of a brand new shiny facility. Looks are very deceiving, in the end you want not only your loved one cared for but also the family that brought them there. Support is key here. Be aware of any facility that has dementia patients in a locked room ( for-their own good I was told). Out of sight out of mind. Ashely Court brings all of their residents out of their rooms into the main room everyday! Also you will not be playing wheres waldo when you need assistance with your loved one. They are on site in view. The other fancy assisted I could never find anyone that worked there. My family is grateful that we found Ashley Court. We thank them for the care they gave to my uncle.

My mom has been living at Ashley Court since February. It's great that there are many activities for her to enjoy. I like that everyone spends time outdoors, doing art and crafts, games, worship, and music. Mom keeps busy and it tires her out so she sleeps better. The staff is helpful and attentive. She gets regular showers and reminders to come to meals, which is a big help. Thank you for watching out for my mother who has dementia!

If you’re looking for a place for your loved one, look no further. Since 2017, we have been caregivers for two loved ones with dementia and Ashley Court of Brighton went above and beyond to help us both times. From the time you walk through the door, they create a feeling of being at home. They have many creative activities that keep them stimulated and active. No holiday or birthday goes by without a celebration. My brother always smiles when telling us about dancing with the activities team for Cinco de Mayo. Recently, we had to move my brother out of state to be near his son, and he wanted to make sure the new place had “Pin Ball” also known as bowling as he really enjoyed it. The staff are warm and loving and take care of all their needs. It’s such a relief knowing your loved one is safe, well cared for, and kept active.
