Hale Creek Manor
Hale Creek Manor
Hale Creek Manor is a 43-bed community at 3191 M-65, Hale, Iosco County, MI, licensed as a Home for the Aged. Operated by Hale Area Assisted Living Corporation, a nonprofit, the facility is somewhat walkable with a walk score of 45, ranked 267th of 702 Michigan communities. The facility is located at Hale city center with operating hours Monday through Friday 8:30 am to 5 pm. A specialized 9-bed Alzheimer’s care unit serves memory care residents, with 34 beds accommodating the general population.
Connie Clauson serves as authorized representative. The facility does not accept Medicare or Medicaid.
Services include 24-hour staffing, assisted living, respite care, memory care, and supportive care. Residents receive medication assistance, assistance with activities of daily living, housekeeping and laundry, religious services and spiritual care, social and recreational activities, and care coordination. Three nutritious meals daily are provided with snacks and special diet accommodations. Regularly scheduled social activities and religious services are offered.
From September 2014 through February 2023, Hale Creek Manor maintained a clean compliance record with zero deficiencies across initial licensing and renewal inspections. In December 2023, a substantiated complaint documented a bed bug infestation lasting approximately two years. The facility had lacked a written bed bug policy and procedure. Eight exterminator visits were documented.
The June 3, 2024 renewal inspection identified three deficiencies. Employee tuberculosis screenings were not completed within required timeframes or records were missing. Both soiled and clean linen storage areas contained non-linen items, creating cross contamination risk. Multiple food items in the kitchen and memory care dry storage were not dated or labeled with open dates, making it unclear if they remained safe for consumption.
At the June 2024 renewal, census was 18 residents in a 43-bed capacity.
No enforcement actions or fines are documented.
Hale Creek Manor is structured for assisted living and memory care in a rural Iosco setting, with recent findings documenting infection control and food safety deficiencies that represent a shift from the facility’s prior clean record.
