Lenawee Medical Care Facility

Lenawee Medical Care Facility sits at 200 Sand Creek Highway in Adrian, Michigan and has been part of the community since 1970, so you know they've got a long history of providing care to elders. The place is made up of eight small households, and in each one there's a kitchen, dining room, and living room, so it feels more like a home than a big institution, and the total capacity is 136 beds in a skilled nursing environment. Staff fill different roles, with Erin Tuckey as the Administrator, Brett Smallman as the Therapy Manager, and an Admissions Coordinator named Lisa Brasher, plus other professionals like Brandy Williamson for Compliance, Kirk Vernier for Plant Maintenance, Rae Schmidt as Registered Dietitian, and two Life Enrichment Directors, Jen Ouellette and Kate Harkness, so there's a team dedicated to every part of daily life. Residents get help from trained universal workers, and there's skilled nursing care, short-term rehab, and long-term care, with an emphasis on personal schedules-elders choose when to wake, how they want their meals, and even when they'd like bathing and medication or therapy sessions, so there's real focus on keeping their routines their own. Dining's restaurant-style, activities are elder-driven and can even include going out on community trips, and the whole set up is meant to promote individual choice, dignity, and companionship, making it more comfortable for seniors. The facility tries new ways to improve care while respecting every elder's wishes, and there are amenities to help everyone settle in. They've got programs like Certified Assisted Living Director (CALD) and offer Assisted Living Medication Management, and provide legal, financial, nurse education, and regulatory resources for both residents and staff. The focus is always on keeping life engaging and meaningful, with a care model that puts elders and their choices first, so the environment feels supportive, safe, and home-like for seniors who live there.
