Good experience overall

My overall experience has been good. My wife is in the memory care unit. The caregivers seemed very caring and there is always one present for the residence. Overall cleanliness of the building is good but in the memory care unit, the carpeting has many stains on it. I realized logistically it would be hard to remedy this because the residents are constantly on the move. My wife's apartment is a nice size with a bedroom and a sitting room although housekeeping leaves a bit to be desired. The bed is not made every day and there has been a urine stain spot in the bathroom on the floor for five days now a simple mopping would take care of it. There are activities planned for all day. The food is passable, but sometimes comes with large pieces that should have been cut smaller for the residents with coordination problems.

Caring For One and All.

I was very happy with food service and staff friendliness. Everything was managed very well. John seemed to like it but was glad when he could come home. I thought the room could be a little cleaner but then [name removed] is not the nearest person. I liked it but [name removed] felt he wanted to go someplace else for more long-term care.

Top notch

I would give a 5 for all categories. The staff was great and found solutions for any issues or questions that came up. They were friendly and responsive. My Dad participated in several activities at the staff's encouragement. The price was very good compared to nearby facilities. It was always clean and well staffed.

Kind supportive staff. The hardest part is learning names of 3 change of shifts. Of all the horror stories of other places, I'd have to rate it a 5. Food is good, my husband has made friends too.

Not sure I would recommend. When my mom really started to decline I am not sure she got as much care as she needed. We picked them because it was a new building nicely appointed.

Extremely pleased

I wanted to do a shout out to Avalon. My step-mum has been in Assisted Living there for over 18 months and both she and are family are extremely happy. My step Mum has moderate dementia , but is still quite upbeat and independent. She was in another local and pricier AL that was purchased and went drastically down hill. Avalon was our solution. The food is good, she and her apartment are clean and the staff is friendly and responsive- especially since [name removed] became the Director! The activity director [name removed] comes up with extra fun activities and field trip and does a fabulous job getting my Mum involved. Friday entertainment is another big hit! [name removed], the business manager works miracles with her Long Term Care company, assuring that they actually pay out on time each month. And trust me, they can ask us to jump through hoops at times. Just a few reasons and staff that have inspired me to recommend Avalon to friends and write multiple positive reviews.

Review for The Avalon of Auburn Hills

Don't go there! I was so disappointed with this place. Both my parents have passed and I have so much guilt about choosing Avalon. Absolutely horrible experience.

Great Community, Great People.

One of the most beautiful living communities I have visited (and I visit many). It is kept as clean and fresh as a 5-star hotel - you will notice this from the moment you walk in. What truly sets the Avalon of Auburn Hills apart from other communities is their team! A very special “shout out” to health services director [name removed], and executive director [name removed] for assembling and maintaining such a special team.

Family Facility

I am a memory care caregiver at the Avalon of Auburn Hills. The residents and staff are very close in this building, making every experience a family one. I love working here and the relationships I have made with staff and residents here are some of the greatest I have had the pleasure of creating. I am very proud to work in such an amazing place, and would highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for a place to call home.

A nice community with some room for improvement.

Many things were missing from my husband's room and we were unable to retrieve all of them. The person across the hall had a lot of things in her room. At least we were able to retrieve those! For the memory care unit. The unit just seemed depressing, hard to judge how clean. Staff very friendly, helpful. I was away, and had to text director to get staff to take him outside. His visitors reported that he was either sitting by himself or pacing the halls. I found him walking upset in halls when I picked him up. I don't know about meal because my husband is unable to remember anything about them. Did not get any feedback on activities. Did get one text with a picture of him on the putting green outside. He did not want to be there, kept trying to leave, so I don't think he was off the locked unit much. If he could have stayed in assisted living, I would have thought the value for money was a 5. Although the staff in memory care was very good, I'm not sure there were enough to give the care I wanted for him.

What we like the most about The Avalon of Auburn Hills community is the friendly staff and the great care. However, is it kind of pricy though. Based on the experience we have had, we would recommend them to other families.

Facility feedback

I have recommended people consider The Avalon of Auburn Hills. The facility is nice, clean, and modern. The food was fair, it may be better for those that can go to the main dining room. My mom ate on her floor, in Memory Care dining, that had food brought up. The staff is mostly good. We visited often so, communication with the family was frequent. I would recommend soft flooring in the bathroom for patients who have a tendency to fall.

Would Recommend

I think The Avalon of Auburn Hills is a very clean and modern facility, which I really appreciate. Our whole family has been impressed with the facility, yet It's still a very warm and family-like atmosphere. Overall I think the care of our family member is good. We've had to talk with them a few times about her diet. Sometimes that communication wasn't getting to their dietary department. Coordination of that took some time, but we finally did get it resolved.

Our families experience

From a facility standpoint we do think it is very nice, relatively new, clean and modern. The size of the rooms are probably amongst the best we had seen. You could pick between a one bedroom or a two bedroom that had a separate living area. The staff are certainly friendly and try very hard which is a big positive - we do think when it comes to memory care they could use a little more training. The meal arrangement's are nice, the dining area is nice and they all eat together. It is a single price, nothing that is nickel and dime it is all inclusive. We would recommend them to other families

Pandemic compounded care issues.

Let me preface my remarks by saying that the pandemic made operating of any of these assisted living places difficult. There was instances of long wait times & mom hesitated to press her button for any small thing: she starting doing most everything herself, including the bathroom, which is a liability issue. Mom was at a 3rd level of care, but rate should have been adjusted as she became more self sufficient; a reappraisal was not done. Expired food was found on shelves & in her mini fridge. Laundry was not sorted (whites got dingy from mixed loads), food in dining room was not geared towards senior's diets (onions, cruciferous vegs like broccoli that are hard to digest). They did help with a GF diet. Mom moved out with another person's meds; Mom had side effects from taking wrong meds for 10 days. Medtechs are basically kids dispensing meds. Upon moving out, it was found that 227. in items were missing, though things were marked. We are owed pro rata rent of 2.7+K 10 wks later.

General Overview

They haven't disappointed me yet. As long as you're involved and ask a lot of questions, you should be fine. The staff are pretty good. Sometimes in the afternoon/early evening I don't see a lot of staff around. The food is fine. They have a lot do as far as activities, and they try all the time to get my loved one involved.

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.
