Recent reviews of Independent Living in Cass County, MI
Grand Emerald Place in South Bend, IN
4.9

I appreciate how friendly everybody is. Most of the time the care is okay. Getting my loved one to keep the fall detector lanyard on her neck has been a challenge, but that's not on them. They have a back patio, and I think they're going to be having a garden. And the inside is pretty nice.

Nazareth Center in Kalamazoo, MI
5.0

Best place my mom has been. 100% better than another place she experienced. So far after 6 weeks at Nazareth Center, I have not found anything to complain about. They have lived up to everything they have said they would do. The staff feels like family. Would definitely recommend!
