Assisted living has emerged as a highly important part of Michigan's continuum of care services for older adults. Providing a unique combination of housing, personal care services, and health care, assisted living is the perfect option for people who need help with normal daily activities in a way that promotes maximum independence. Think of assisted living as offering more than independent housing but less than nursing home care.
Below you'll find assisted living resources, as well as a checklist of items to be considered in selecting an assisted living arrangement for yourself or a loved one. Please note that adult foster care and homes for aged are considered forms of assisted living and are licensed by the State of Michigan. Higher levels of care within assisted living residences require this licensure. Contact the Department of Human Services to determine if the residence you are considering is licensed by the State of Michigan.
