National Houseplant Appreciation Day at MediLodge of Okemos!

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 this center because the hospital said it was a good center. Therapy was great and very supportive! Everyone was very professional, and it takes special people to do this work!

I chose this center because it’s close to home and the property is well maintained. All departments and employees were very caring and helpful. No matter what time, day or night, staff had a smile and were very helpful.

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!

Everyone was good to me, even the patients! I got to know a lot of great people while I was here!

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 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.

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.

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.

The facility is lovely, its super clean, and the staff is friendly. Therapy was SUPER! There were many activities offered to keep me busy. I have been here before and got very good care every time!
