I chose MediLodge of Lansing because I needed help. I was a lot sicker than I realized. With help from the MediLodge of East Lansing team, I 've gotten better, and I feel like a new person now. Few team members stood out to me. One of them is a nurse, a real Resident Advocate, Tom Night. He helped me with my mental state. The other person is a nurse, Kristin Night, who is good with pain control.

I chose MediLodge of Lansing because I needed the rehabilitation and help. The staff is very helpful and nice here. They [staff] will help you even when it is not their job. Overall, the staffing is very nice and answered all of my questions. All of my needs are met. They never blow me off and always come back to me. The building is very clean too! They are all very organized and I understand how hard that it can be as I work in this line of work and you all try your darndest.

No one wants to have to go to a nursing home. If you’re lucky, you will find yourself in a place like Medilodge of Lansing. I think such a nursing home and staff are exceptional and rare. I can’t say enough of how kind and caring the staff of Medilodge of Lansing has been to me. They truly want you to have everything to help you get well. By the time I left, the staff of Medilodge of Lansing were my friends. I will certainly recommend to all of my friends.

The nurses, CNA staff, and the management are wonderful! I am happy here, and I made some good friends. Out of the many staff members who stood out to me I must mention Angela(Admission), Megan(nurse), Kathy D. (CNA), Nicole(nurse), and I could do this all day!

I chose MediLodge of Lansing because it is a nice place, and everyone treats me very well and is kind. They care about their patients, and Blake was very helpful to me during my stay.
David White
I chose MediLodge of Lansing because I have been here before, and I came back for rehab. Rehab has done an excellent job for me. I can't specify who stood out to me because everyone here is great. Wonderful team! Great job!
Gordon Rueckert
I have been to Medilodge of Lansing two other times and I have wonderful service each time I have been here. It is close to my home, the therapy staff are very good and all of my CNAs are so helpful especially Cathy. The meals are delicious and I don’t feel like there is a better place to go for therapy when I need it.
Connie Frye
I chose MediLodge of Lansing for myself. I've been with the MediLodge family for some time. Blake, Ann, Angela, and Brandy all stood out to me! Everyone is very kind and loving.
