ABOUT US
Orchard Hills is an adult assisted living facility in Ann Arbor, Michigan which has cared for elderly and disabled residents for over two decades. We strive to provide the utmost care and comfort to our residents. Unlike larger facilities that have a 12:1 resident-to-staff ratio, we have a maximum 6:1 resident-to-staff ratio. This means that we can provide personalized care and individual attention to residents above and beyond what they can receive at larger facilities. In fact, many of our residents and their families consider our staff members their friends. We are licensed to care for residents with any of the following conditions:
- Aged
- Physically handicapped
- Alzheimer’s
- Developmentally disabled
- Mentally ill
Each resident has his or her own private room. We also have common areas where residents enjoy the company of the other residents and our staff. In turn, our staff love to keep the residents company, and they are known to chat with the residents, sing songs to residents who like to hear them, and to send updates and pictures of residents to their families if desired.
We are located in a quiet residential neighborhood near the University of Michigan, an elementary school, and a nature center. Our residents who are able to make the trip enjoy going around the pond in the nature center accompanied by our staff and their families.
We are staffed around the clock. Our staff cook three delicious meals a day, help clean the home and the residents if needed, can operate medical equipment, and provide other care services. Our staff members are experienced health care workers. Two are CNAs. Our staff is passionate about bringing joy and comfort to our residents. We help our residents with their normal daily activities in a way that promotes maximum independence while keeping joy and cheer in their lives.
TESTIMONIALS
Listen to Susan describe her experience placing her mother in the care of Orchard Hills:
Read the reviews we have collected from the Internet, including Google reviews:
The facility is a nice family home in a wonderful neighborhood. My mother loves her private room and feels like she's at home. They have holiday celebrations that promote a family atmosphere. The Thurston Pond Trails and Nature Preserve are one block away. Visiting is easy. I'm there 3 or 4 times a week and have a cordial relationship with the staff. I am pleased with the 24/7 care they provide for my mother. Jenny, the daytime staff member, is always ready to provide information on my mother's behalf to Visiting Physicians, Area Agency on Aging 1B and Arbor Hospice.
If you need care for a loved one, I cannot stress how much Orchard Hills should be the top of your list to look at! They have so much to offer, they are run by some of the kindest, loving and most knowledgeable people I have ever met. They all truly love what they do, and the residents are truly happy, and well cared for. The residents have plenty of opportunity for enrichment, regardless of their health situation. Family is very much encouraged here. They quickly become new family members for your loved one and for you.
The home is warm and inviting, each visit you feel more and more like family. The caregivers and the owners are incredible. Everything they do is with the utmost care and compassion. The home is kept spotless, the residents are well cared for, happy and comfortable. The combined experience and dedication of the owners and staff are second to none.
Overall the care was good and my mother with Alzheimer's seemed satisfied . The house was always very clean and visiting was as convenient as can be expected, The staff seemed very dedicated to providing personal care from what I could tell. The financial cost per month could not be beat from our shopping around.
I visited this facility recently (January, 2018). I was really impressed with the cleanliness of this place, and the dedication of the employee who was working at that time. The owners were very nice, and took the time to answer all our questions to our satisfaction. When we got there, it was dinner time, and the residents were sitting down for their dinner. They all looked very neat and clean, and happy!! Really impressive!! Another plus is that they have all private rooms, which is hard to find in Ann Arbor. I would definitely move my dad here, but they had no vacancy. i will strongly recommend this place
