Wonderful and caring staff…

Working with people who have memory loss must be challenging on the best of days, but the staff of Sensations are always kind, patient, and clearly familiar with my Grandma’s idiosyncrasies - which means they’re paying attention. I’m so happy she found a safe and caring place to call home when she could no longer stay in her own.

Caring, Friendly, Knowledgeable

Sensations Memory Care Residence is unlike any other facility in the area. The staff is extremely caring, friendly, and knowledgeable. They provide unmatched care to those inflicted with dementia. Their staff are trained to provide appropriate care to one of the most vulnerable populations in our society. I have been a professional in this industry for two decades and I have never been to another "Memory Care" residence that understands dementia as well as the staff at Sensations. They are truly a gem!

Sensations Is great

We were impressed and have the utmost respect and gratitude for Sensations. All the staff are great and took care of our mother with respect and dignity, even though she could be a hand full with her Alzheimer’s/Dementia. Larissa was great and was very helpful with getting our mother accepted in the home. Again everyone is great and friendly. My mother has since passed but we loved this facility and cant give enough praise for the care she received.

Best Place Ever

My aunt just recently needed a place to go as she was diagnosed with cancer at end of life. Larrisa went above and beyond getting my aunt and cousin taken care in a timely fashion. I would recommend this to anyone needing a place longterm or short-term.

Observations

The first thing I notice when I enter Sensations is the cleanliness. It always smells good and is well managed. The front office ladies do an awesome job taking care of the business end of things, but they also love the patients and their families too! The staff love taking great care of the patients and their families. The kitchen staff makes yummy food and are always pleasant. The maintenance keep the place running well and a safe place for everyone. The custodial staff is who keeps the place looking so clean and smelling so good. Overall, it’s the best place to place a loved one for care. Your family would be so well loved!

Fantastic care of my mom who had alzheimer’s

The staff were so wonderful with my mom. They cared for her like she was family. They so were so wonderful and caring of us as well. Communication was great and the care they took of her was like family. Her roommate always clean. My mom was clean and dressed in clean clothes daily. They are kind, compassionate and allowed themselves to emotionally connect with the residents and family. Especially at the end of life. When my mom got to the point of hospice we were with her daily. The staff checked in my mom multiple times a day and always checked how we were doing and did their best to answer all our questions. I felt so much love and comfort from them during those last few weeks. I highly recommend them to others. Also the place in general was very clean and had a pleasant smell. Was not overly sterile smelling.

Great place to consider on your short list.

This 28 bed facility excels with personal care. My wife was here for 2 1/2 years. I could not be happier with the love and care she received. If you are looking for a home for a loved one or friend schedule a visit. You will not be disappointed.

Such a caring group of staff members that cared for my sister!!

My sister was at Sensations due to a brain infection. Even though she thought she was fine, she couldn’t live on her own anymore. The staff was so amazing during her stay and also when she was diagnosed with lung cancer. When she passed at the facility everyone was so caring to all of our family. Special mention to [names removed], and even the cook, [name removed], for their special caring for my sister, Joy Clark.

Very thankful

Sensations Memory Care took good care of my mother-in-law. I felt very comfortable with her there after a not so good experience elsewhere. The staff was genuine and caring. The facilty was very clean. I also liked the fact that they also had private rooms to visit with the resident.

My review of Sensations Memory Care

I've not had experience with any other facility so I can't answer that one. I did tour 2 other places in Lansing and they were much too big and not the right fit. The place is great. They have some exceptional staff. They talk to residents with love. There are no smells. I knew immediately this was the place for her.

My aunt was a resident.

My aunt was a resident there. She received excellent care. She absolutely loved the food. Her room was kept clean and they took care of her laundry They had activities and worship service. She was happy about that as she could no longer easily attend church. The staff treated her with compassion and dignity. We were overwhelmed with the decision to move her to a home but the admissions lady was so helpful and answered all of our questions and addressed each concern. We have never regretted the decision. Sensations was not only a home for her but an extended family for all of us.

Toured This Home

I toured this home and it is very nice. I’m not ready for placement yet but will keep it in mind when in need. Facility was clean and smelled fresh. The patients were eating lunch and it looked delicious! The gal I toured with was great, very informative and knowledgeable! Very Lovely place. I have reached out to her for several questions and she is always willing to help! I would recommend her and Sensations in the future!

Sensations Memory Care - a home away from home.

We brought a dear friend to Sensations as it was no longer safe for her to live alone. From Day 1, she felt very at-home and she settled in better than we expected since she was very, very independent. The staff was caring and thoughtful, making sure she always had what was needed to have a successful day. We would hear stories about how friendly and helpful this or that person was and how they accommodated her need to be walking whenever she wasn't sleeping or eating. Our friend passed in July and we miss her but we also miss the smiling faces we encountered in our visits.

My Uncle [name removed] loves Sensations

Sensations has saved [name removed] life twice. A place for 24hr care for him after a heart transplant and then a second stay after he had a stomach infection. He is doing much better now and loves the care givers.

A loving caring community

Both my mother and father-in-law have been residents at Sensations. They were treated with love and respect as was the rest of our family when we came to visit. They are the best! My father-in-law was in hospice care at Sensations. They were very supportive of the family during that difficult time.
