Review

While there were some negative experiences mentioned, there were also positive comments about the community. It is important to note that opinions may vary depending on personal circumstances and expectations.

One reviewer expressed disappointment with the change in ownership, stating that the current owners are friendly but unprofessional. They shared a concerning incident where their family member fell and was not properly attended to by housing staff, who posed as doctors. The reviewer cautioned that this facility may be better suited for individuals who can advocate for themselves. Additionally, they witnessed a nurse with severe tremors administering a shot without sterilizing the area first.

On the other hand, another individual had no complaints about their tour and found the staff to be punctual and informative. They were impressed with the level of resident engagement in various activities and found the floor plan easy to navigate.

Despite their limited stay, they felt confident recommending this community based on their initial impressions.

A satisfied family member praised DaySpring for its cleanliness, friendly atmosphere, and attentive care for residents. They felt reassured knowing that their loved one was in good hands at this well-maintained facility.

One review mentioned that DaySpring offers an alternative option for individuals with Alzheimer's who still maintain mobility and seek engaging activities. The availability of accommodations for both patients and their spouses was appreciated, creating a more familial environment rather than feeling like a traditional skilled nursing home.

While some reviewers had concerns about independence levels and room arrangements, others expressed interest in potentially transitioning to assisted living when needed or staying within proximity to North Muskegon.

Overall, DaySpring Assisted Living appears to have a dedicated staff, opportunities for social engagement, and a pleasant atmosphere. It is important for future residents and their families to consider individual needs and preferences before making a decision.
