A Pie in the Face to #ENDALZ !

"To Everyone at MediLodge, Thank you for everything you've done for me. Your place is very nice to be, especially if you need the help to get better. You all were very nice and respectable towards me. I was happy to have picked your facility. Again, thank you for all of your time. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Yours Truly, Paul M."

I have been here for 10 weeks of rehab after ankle surgery. I have received absolutely wonderful care from all of the people who work here. Everyone was so supportive and encouraging during each step of my recovery. The facility is well designed, organized and maintained. I would recommend Medilodge of Okemos to anyone who needs this type of care. I thank all the wonderful people here who have helped me recover. They are the very best.

I chose MediLodge of Okemos for their nursing care and therapy. Tammy (social worker) went out of her way for me, and she was fantastic! The nursing staff and aides were outstanding, accommodating, and cheerful! The therapists were excellent as well; they were the reason I came back here!

For the time I was there, I had wonderful therapy and nursing care. The aides are excellent. I don’t care where you go, you couldn’t ask for better care. The administration is very pleasant. You don’t even know they are administration! They didn’t just take care of my sickness, they took care of my soul.

I chose this center because I was here before and the staff has always treated me like I mean something to them! The nurses, aides, and therapy staff always smile at you, and they are gentle. I liked the activities and church services on Sundays.

Can’t thank therapy enough for everything they did for me! Quality of life is important to me, and therapy got me back to where I needed to be. Kudos to the Kitchen staff and all employees; especially to the nurses Jessica, Corey and Ethan, Kristine the unit manager and all the C.N.A’s! Staff is wonderful, and Medilodge of Okemos will always be my home away from home.

I chose MediLodge of Okemos because of its location so I could be close to family and friends while recovering. My therapy experience was excellent, thanks to the staff, who were all very encouraging! I’ve been pleased with this place.

I was here because of a hip replacement surgery. All of your staff are helpful and very friendly. The Physical and Occupations team are the best I’ve ever seen – they are terrific. Thanks to the therapy team for all of your help. My rehabilitation time was minimal. It makes me feel good.

Everyone gave excellent care and I have been here 3 times, so that should speak for me!

Dear readers and future patients, I’m compelled to write a short synopsis of my stay here at Mediloge. I was living independently in my own apartment when I took very ill. I lost 45lbs and ended up at the U of M for surgery. For rehab, I chose MediLodge of Portage because my son and family lived close by. I’m not a gambling man but it turned out to be the best “Roll of the dice” I could have made. Everyone I came into contact with was so concerned about my health. In 2 months, I was walking again. In 3 months, I had regained the 45lbs. For me, it was a superior 5-star experience. So many professionals to say thank you to with much love. My motto is “live for love, adventure, and knowledge”. They did their job; mine was to make them laugh and keep it light-hearted. We all succeeded. They all know who they are! They’ll never be forgotten, Thomas A. Monroe P.S. Ask them about the spoon toss game. I got pretty good at it.
