Heritage Assisted Living Community sits at 14420 S Helmer Rd, Battle Creek, MI, 49015, and provides personalized care and support for seniors who want to keep their independence but need a bit of help each day, and the staff is around 24 hours a day to help with daily activities, medication management, and emergencies, making sure everyone gets the care suited to their needs, and there's even someone on hand for transfers from bed to wheelchair if that's needed. Residents have freshly prepared meals each day, so there's no need to worry about cooking, and there's laundry and housekeeping, plus indoor common areas where people can get together for music, movies, games, or just a quiet conversation, because a sense of community helps everyone feel at home. Seniors must be at least 55 to move in, and there are private apartments so people have their own space but still can join in group activities like fitness classes, movie nights, and community events when they want, and plenty of programs encourage movement and social time.
The community has a full-time physical therapist in-house and provides help managing diabetic care and incontinence, though residents are expected to handle incontinence themselves, and there's standby support for those who aren't able to walk on their own. Meals aim for good nutrition and taste, and there are devotional services offsite for those who want them. Heritage also offers respite care, so if a regular caregiver needs a break, short stays are possible. Staff are known for being friendly and supportive, with a hands-on owner and a Certified Assisted Living Director overseeing care, and the staff got a 4.0 out of 5 rating, with care, meals, and building all rated around 4.0, so people seem to feel well taken care of. Housekeeping, laundry services, and fully trained staff make things run smoothly, and Heritage is adding memory care services in the spring, with a dedicated nurse and team focused on those with memory needs. Residents here get help suited to their own needs, with the choice of apartment, wellness checks, and activities that fit a wide range of interests, and there's also convenient transportation plus nearby places like restaurants and a pharmacy. The environment's safe, welcoming, and shaped by staff who treat people with respect, making Heritage Assisted Living Community a place where seniors can find both support and independence.
