Covenant Glen of Frankenmuth
5.0

I have just placed my Wife into Covenant Glen in Frankenmuth. The process was quite smooth, but also I needed to be patient, a hard thing for me to do..But the administration & staff at this place is top notch. The Exec. Director & I had spoke on the phone several times, and I also worked with "The Alissa's".. a very good experience. I moved my wife from a failing facility to a much better place with more STUFF & for less money. The monthly fees are very competitive.. I know I've done my homework & have a LTC policy on my wife... I have no reservations about placing wife in the CARE of Covenant Glen.. Thank Goodness for Good People... [Removed]

Rachel Sovereign Memorial Home in Bay City, MI
5.0

The staff is great and caring at Rachel Sovereign Memorial Home. My mom loves the food. She said it is very tasty and they are accommodating to her special requests. She is lactose intolerant. [Name removed], the manager, is always available and great to work with. My mother has never complained to me about anything. The building is very homelike and cozy and clean. I think it's great that it's only women. She has also told me they are great about washing her clothes and getting them back to her. The price is so much better than other facilities and so worth it.
