I chose MediLodge of Tawas City because of the rehab services. Other friends of mine highly recommended the center. All of therapy stood out to me! They “hunt”(LOL) you down to get you to do what is needed so you can go home safely. The CNAs are right on top of their game. All of them went above and beyond to do a great job. I would recommend MediLodge of Tawas City to others needing any care.

"I'd like to spend the rest of my life here. They treat me right and I've gotten stronger."

I chose MediLodge of Tawas City for my father, Ralph Hengehold’s therapy because of his weakness. I heard the therapy here was great and it has been. Hannah and Courtney (CNAs) were always very personal-able, caring, nice and joked around. We like the improvements that have been made at MediLodge of Tawas City, the rooms are very home like! I will recommend the center to others in need of a place to go.

I chose MediLodge of Tawas City due to my fractured arm and for strengthening. Everyone was so wonderful! From dietary to the nursing staff they were all so good to me. I would highly recommend MediLodge of Tawas city to everyone I know in need of skilled care.

I chose MediLodge of Tawas City for myself. I have heard good things out in the community about your center. Shannon (CNA) makes people feel comfortable he makes me laugh. Cheryl LPN (nurse) is always friendly and compassionate. The staff is great and very kind. My advice to everyone is to take everything one day at a time.

I want to thank you for the wonderful care you are taking of my mother, Melinda Taylor, who is a resident at your facility. I am far away in Florida and have worried about her in the past, but now that she is with you I am relieved. She seems very happy and that makes me smile. So again, thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!!!

I chose MediLodge of Tawas City after having hip surgery. I know Ida, the marketer, who comes to the Hale Senior Center monthly to do our blood pressures. I also had a connection with Pam (therapy) since I have known her family for many years. I know they both really care. I don’t want to go home, and I would like to stay. I’ve had an overall good experience while staying here.

“I chose Medilodge of Tawas City for myself. My friend Mike is the D.O.N. there. I chose this center because it was close to where I live, and was a shorter distance for my wife to travel to see me. There are a few departments that stood out to me. First, there is nursing: Kendra and Leeann, the main two nurses that took care of me, both did a great job, were always polite, courteous, and very caring. Stephanie and April (CENAs from first shift) are both very caring people who take their job seriously and are polite as well. They always made sure I was comfortable, asking if I needed anything. Upper management came by on daily rounds, making sure everything was going well, asking how the prior evening went. The center has an excellent therapy department. Greg, Stacy, Emily, Lana kudos to you! You all show your passion for what you do. Shower aides Amber and Hannah also do a great job. Thank you for all you do. My overall stay was excellent.”

"The therapy was really good. It was the best I've had. It helped 100%. You all kept after me to do what I needed to get better."
