Cretsinger Care Homes Ltd

Cretsinger Care Homes Ltd has been around since 1984 and runs several care homes in Battle Creek, Michigan, with locations like 632 North Avenue, 4171 Capital Avenue, 1425 East Michigan Avenue, and 54 Fremont Street, and you'll find all sorts of different living options, with everything from assisted living and independent living to memory care, in-home residential services, and long-term non-acute care for seniors, people with Alzheimer's or dementia, and even those with developmental disabilities, mental illness, or traumatic brain injuries; the company runs places like Cretsinger East, Cretsinger Country Place, Beachfield AIS/MR, The Heritage Assisted Living Community, Care Community, Battle Creek Bickford Cottage, Schaffer AFC Home, and Great Lakes Reg Care #5, and each spot usually has its own way of naming things and a different number of beds, with some being as small as 6 units and others, like Care Community, offering up to 150 beds so folks can pick what suits their needs best. These homes feel more like a group setting or sometimes an adult family home, not a big hospital, and they're set up for community-based living, with structured programs and activities for residents, personalized care plans, and staff trained for both elderly care and special needs, and you'll see pet-friendly options, memory care that's specially designed, and amenities aimed at keeping residents comfortable and involved. They've got services for respite care and hospice care as well, and for people who might not need a full nursing home, their care options usually cost less, though you'd need to check on insurance and CMS certification if you want to use Medicare, since that's not always accepted. The company is private and licensed, checking all the required boxes with state and local government and agencies like the Department of Aging, and folks like Home Managers Brittany Ferguson and Danielle Speer, plus Direct Care Worker Jamara Motley and owner Renee Kelly, work as part of the team, along with 51 to 200 employees across various homes. Cretsinger Care Homes has different group home sizes-small, medium, large-as well as adult county infirmaries and adult congregate settings, and each place tries to match the right kind of support-whether that's for the elderly, adults facing mental or physical challenges, or people needing ongoing supervision. Memory care and special certification for caring for developmentally disabled or mentally ill folks are also part of the setup, so the homes aim to make sure every resident gets the right care in a way that feels more like living in a real home, using special features or design elements where needed.
