The reasons I chose this center is because my daughter is an OT here, and I knew I would get the quality therapy I needed. In the Therapy Dept, Nancy and Rachel stood out! They worked me very hard to help me reach my goal. Also the E Wing Nurses, Missy and team; they went out of their way to answer my many questions, and they were always pleasant with a smile. It was the best month I have ever spent on myself. I got stronger every day I rested and healed, I met a new friend and got encouragement along the way from those friends. I would come back if I ever needed to — a very pleasant stay. I had fun.

The nurses, techs, housekeeping all worked very well together and I had a great experience overall! The staff was kind and professional. They encouraged you to "do a little more stretching!" Music therapy was very great and uplifting for the residents and therapists. I went to the dining room about 1/3 of the time and was impressed by the staff and warm food! A fellowship is so important! All of the staff have compassion. I felt safe and cared for easily. Ice was my friend and available to me. The staff has quite a sense of humor too! Blessings to you all!

On May 27th, 2018, I experienced a near death accident where my leg was severed. After two surgeries and nine days in the hospital away from home and family, I learned I would transfer to Medilodge of Alpena to begin rehabilitation. As soon as I arrived, the staff had all of my care coordinated making my care transition seamless. Dr. Dargis and all the other staff were very attentive and caring. I received excellent care in a way that met my personal needs and made me feel “at home” The therapy staff are top notch and committed to excellence every step of the way. Thanks to all the staff for care that felt like home.

"I enjoy activities like bowling down the hallway. I used to be on a bowling league years ago. I had a strike my first try and was the overall winner!"

The friendliness of the nursing staff was great, always right there. The therapy staff was great. I was very satisfied.

I chose MediLodge of Alpena after my knee replacement. I am very satisfied with my stay here. Everyone is so caring and understanding. Nancy, Ashley, and Eric were terrific and very helpful with my therapy. Thank you for everything!

Every department in MediLodge more than surpassed my expectations. From therapy to the entire staff. I was cared for in the most professional and caring way. My experience here at MediLodge can only be explained as totally unexpected as far as caring and respect. Every member of the staff treated me with A+ kindness.

"Jennie and I saw Margie regularly and our impression of the concern and care for Margie and the courtesy and extra effort extended to us was outstanding. The provision that Margie was allowed to keep her cat Misty as her constant companion was only one example of extraordinary sensitivity and compassion."

Jess Hogle really stood out, I love her personality. Always smiling! The gardens are beautiful, everyone should see them!

The reasons I chose Medilodge of Alpena was for therapy- very satisfied! The very dedicated staff at all levels are accomplishing their tasks and compensating for others.
