Answer the phone
Why can’t anyone answer the phone? When I press a number to go to an assistant director, it goes to a maintenance phone line and you get a recorder. Even the person at the front desk cannot answer the phone. Everything goes to a recorder.How can you get help if my mother falls?

Poor Care/No Management in building
I felt the need to express myself as a family member on social media. My complaints have fallen on deaf ears with the corporate company. My mom has been here for years now, and I feel she used to get the good care and support that she needed. Over the last year, the building has deteriorated rapidly. They have no nurse and no Executive Director. They used to have a wonderful director a year ago; ever since then, the place has taken a turn for the worse. We have been looking to put my mom elsewhere in a more vibrant community.

Outdated/Poor staffing
After touring this community, I was shocked at the lack of residents. Red flags began to appear as the tour continued. Lack of professionalism from staff, and the building seemed to have a musty smell, like mold. My friend recommended this community as she toured there over a year ago and had such a good experience with the Director. I have heard from staff that they have not been able to keep a director now for a year and many families have moved there loved ones out. I will not be placing my dad here. I would recommend going elsewhere with your loved one and not waste your time touring there.

Choose somewhere else not worth the cost savings
The rooms are spacious but the building is old and there were multiple problems with leaks and mold Etc. There was also an incredible amount of Staffing turnover. Caregivers did not follow plans of care

Great changes at cortland
My mom has been living at Cortland Howell for the past three years, and the experience has been nothing short of amazing. From the moment she moved in, we felt at ease knowing she was in such a warm, welcoming, and well-managed environment. The staff is incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely cares about the residents. They go above and beyond to make sure everyone feels safe, comfortable, and engaged. The facility is always clean, beautifully maintained, and has a cozy, home-like atmosphere. There are plenty of activities that keep my mom active and social, and she’s made some wonderful friends. The food is great, and it’s clear they put effort into offering both variety and quality. I’m so grateful to everyone at Cortland Howell for the love and support they’ve shown my mom. It’s comforting to know she’s in such good hands. Although there has been lots of change in management those who are there currently are there with great intent and are very responsive and compassionate.

Horrible Mangement
This facility needs to be shut down. Bad mold issues are being covered up and unaddressed by their ownership and management group. The company should review the new Executive Director, as rude and uncaring towards staff, family, and residents. Unprofessional and unapproachable to address any issues that families are trying to address. As a family visiting new Executive Director was yelling at an outside vendor in the hallway. We are looking to place my mom someplace else. Many family members are leaving due to unaddressed issues. I would not recommend this place under any circumstances.

A new family
After touring 7 facilities, The Cortland Howell clearly stood out as the perfect choice for my family member. From my first visit, I was never a random person doing a tour. I was welcomed to the family, with a willingness and determination to understand and provide what my family member needed to be happy and comfortable. At the same time, there was reassurance and support for me as an exhausted caregiver. I met the staff; it felt like home. The adjustment can gratefully be described as easy and I credit the staff for that. Care, cleanliness, comfort, communication, affordability, flexibility, positivity, transparency, and safety, all explain why I know I made the right choice.

Don’t
Because they are not licensed as most assisted livings are they do not have to comply with any minimum standards. Confirmed significant mold issue that the management ignores- may be the result of multiple leaks. Disappointing place with serious management issues.

Bob’s caregivers were wonderful
My husband was actually penalized for having a UTI that put him the hospital. His behavior was combative with this UTI & they decided that he was not allowed to return to Cortland. I have yet to get a refund for the remaining time that he did not reside there. I would not recommend Cortland to any of our friends that are looking for a place for a loved one.

I was very disappointed with the entire facility. I moved my mom after 1 month there. The entire building is in need of repair and updating. The food was terrible, short staffed, the best thing about this facility were the greeters that sat at the front desk.

Would look else where!
My mom resided there for 33 months until her passing in Feb. 2024. It is NOT a state licensed facility, meaning they do not have to comply with state guidelines. PLC’s communication skills are lacking immensely. Weekly, they are short staffed, especially on 2nd/3rd shifts and weekends. The facility went through 15 general managers, and numerous department heads, in my mom’s stay. Meals are subpar, lacking much protein or fresh vegetables/ fruits. Activities are very limited and lacking creativity. Very little training is given new staff, which causes inconsistent care. Rates were increased bi-annually even thou they were not receiving the services they were paying for. We had high hopes for the new owners/ management company (PLC), and were sadly disappointed. I would highly recommend you look elsewhere!!

Do not take your loved one here….
We had our loved one in this facility for almost 3 years. We were there when it was called [name removed]. And we were also there when it was bought out and became Cortland of Howell. In the three years we were there, there was 12 different managers. 13 different health and wellness coordinators. Three different nurses. I can’t even count how many aids/med tech. Well over 50 in the three years we were there. Most of the time this facility ran with no nurse in the building or anybody with any type of medical training. - Consistent medication errors - Overmedicating/under medicating - Staff is not properly trained - management is not properly trained - most of the time you can’t find staff to help you They do not care about your loved one. Do not go to this facility. Do your homework. Research other facilities in the area. Look up the reviews and things that have previously happened in this facility. It might’ve happened under the name [name removed].

I LIKE THIS PLACE...
It's the people. VISTA SPRINGS HOWELL has a great committed team of employees that are all caregivers. My father receives attentive and proactive care. When he is smiling, I'm smiling, too. He frequently comments that he is glad that "we" found this place; that is a rather strong compliment from a 93 year old. He enjoys the field trips and social activities. I enjoy the certainty that he is truly cared for by experts and caring individuals. Management is accessible. Wellness team is exceptional. Social team is fun and inclusive. The kitchen team is fresh and creative. I'm encouraged to participate and be involved in campus activities. Vista Springs Howell is a great COMMUNITY.

Very Accommodating
My mom is settling in nicely at Vista Springs Howell. The care givers are all so really wonderful about the care they provide for my mom. My family has dined there with mom and they said the food is good and they have alternate options if she doesn't like what is on the menu. She is still settling in and a little shy about participating in everything but they are very accommodating and try to encourage her to participate in the activities they provide. So far Bingo is her favorite. We did attend the Awareness Day for Alzheimer's where they released butterflies, it was beautiful. And they have a happy hour she likes to attend to socialize with the other residents. They do offer transportation for residents. We live so close so we like to take her out and about wherever she wants to go. They do provide church services and have a beauty salon at the communtiy. There is an enclosed patio and a get together called "patio chat" to socialize and enjoy the fresh air. I would absolutely recommend this community to others. It is a blessing to know they take such good care of my mom and the effort they take to get to personally know the residents.

I toured this community for my mom's care .The staff was very helpful and the community was nice and clean. The menu looked appealing.

The staff is always their when dad needs them or I have questions. The activities director, Mary, plans so many activities that my dad is always busy.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know Michigan’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Michigan’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

A Place for Mom has scored The Cortland Howell 6 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.   We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.   Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
