August Calendar of Activites and Events!

The reason I chose this center is that it was recommended as being the best-skilled nursing home to help (my loved one) Helen with her medical problems. There are too many specific team members to mention that showed Barabara such care and compassion. Even as her dementia deepened, they treated her with loving care. Having had family members in other nursing homes, I noticed that it was always clean, smelled fresh, and that was always nursing staff working to help the residents.

The administrator, PT, OT, CENA's and housekeeping really stood out. Combine these departments and I feel there is no comparison! I'd always come back here for therapy! I love being around people and here it's encouraged, which is wonderful! The vibe here is always positive and the staff is always within an arm's length!

The entire staff, especially the facility director Heidi and April from nursing really stood out! All of the staff are understanding and will help you on a one-on-one basis. All those working here are great people and take their jobs seriously. Also, most of the residents here are nice!

Everyone here deserves praise! In such a high-pressure job, these nurses, aides, and administrative staff somehow maintain loving and caring hearts for every patient. Thank you!

[My loved one Gary Chapman] Needed rehabilitation here before; did a great job getting him back in shape.

All of the departments work well together with one common goal, to keep our residents safe, happy and healthy. Anyone of the staff will be there for another staff member whether at work or off work like they were there for me when my husband had cancer and passed at home. I could count on any staff to assist me, and they did too!

I have had experience with other facilities in the area. After a tour from Melissa and the obvious personal care shown here, it became our first choice. Melissa made the transition seamless. Heidi obviously is an excellent leader. Jan & Tina were nurses that made us feel like "people," not "patients." Diane was upfront. If life brings you to the need for this care, MediLodge is the 5-star choice. The personal care of each and every staff makes your recovery seem like you're being cared for by loving family.

MediLodge of Grand Traverse City has great people, rooms, and I count on them as my friends. I see them more like my family. They had great food, and the staff was accommodating and cheerful.

I chose this center thru a phone call. They could take me right away and they had the equipment for which I needed and the therapy. The Physical Therapy team really stood out. They are so caring and do their best to encourage to work harder to reach your goal. They are a wonderful group as a whole. Everyone was so nice and caring. You have an excellent staff!

As an Administrator here at Southridge & Woodside Assisted Living Facilities, I am pleased to tell families that I highly recommend your facility from my past experiences working there and from my present view that you'll all do a TERRIFIC job. In my opinion, you guys are the best Rehab facility in town. Keep up the great work and God bless you all for the loving care you give!"
