Happy Environmental Week!

To all of you Nurses, Aides & Staff: I want you to know I admire and look up to each & every one of you. You are awesome, you seriously hold the greatest titles on earth...Thank you for everything you do!

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.

"The commitment to quality designated by this award is a key first step to developing systematic, sustainable, person-centered care and services. We congratulate all of our 2010 winners on this prestigious achievement."

It’s very good here at MediLodge of Traverse City! The staff treats me very well. They even set up a special dining table just for me and my wife on our anniversary with linen and flowers. We felt so special and enjoyed our meal together since I wasn’t able to be home yet for the special date. I would recommend this facility to everyone.

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 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 for my dad, Dixie Caudill, for a respite stay while I spent some time downstate. I can always count on Medilodge of Tawas City to allow me to bring dad in when I need to. Ida, Admissions & Marketing Director works very well with myself and our hospice agency. I can let them know a few days ahead of time that I would like to bring dad there, Medildoge is right on it willing to do whatever it takes to get him in. I can always count on Medilodge of Tawas City to take care of my dad, you all do good work. I know my dad is safe while I’m gone. I will always use Medilodge of Tawas City for our respite stays.

I chose Medilodge of Tawas City again since I was here for my first knee surgery. I had a good experience the first time, so figured I would come back after this knee surgery. The staff that most stood out to me? There are a few of them. First - Hannah CNA she is so bubbly, very thorough, knows the needs of the patients and fun to be around she can always make you smile. Chrystal RN has been very attentive and caring the whole time I was here. Kept on top of things. Then there is Stacy OT & Mike DON who was also very attentive to what I needed and immediately made changes. Hats off to you all! My overall experience was wonderful. I’m glad that my meds were always on time and my call light was answered very quickly. I will and have referred a couple of my friends to your center.

“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.”

I chose MediLodge of Tawas City for my therapy because I wanted to be closer to my home and family. Brandy SP therapist is a sweetheart she went above and beyond for me. Jordon was very kind and attentive to my needs. Medilodge of Tawas City is the most wonderful place I have ever been to. Everyone here has been truly a GOD sent. I will recommend your center to my friends and family. Thank you for all you have done for me.
