Overview of Island City Assisted Living
Island City Assisted Living is a 53-bed community at 1507 Kyle Ave, Eaton Rapids, Eaton County, MI, operated by Eaton Rapids Medical Properties Group, LLC and licensed as a Home for the Aged. Originally opened in 2010, the facility has undergone multiple capacity expansions and facility improvements. The neighborhood is moderately walkable, scoring 65 on accessibility metrics and ranking 100th of 702 Michigan communities in this category.
The community serves residents through assisted living, specialized memory care for Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, hospice care, and rehabilitation services with physical and occupational therapy on-site. Twenty-four-hour staffing is available, respite care accommodates temporary stays, and the facility accepts Medicaid. Amenities include full dining service, movie theater, soda bar, craft room, bird aviary, beauty salon, and music programming. Meals are prepared on-site by experienced cooks with accommodations for special diets.
The facility has earned recognition through quality awards: 2015 MCAL Sapphire, 2018 MCAL Emerald, and 2020 Bronze Award from the National Center for Assisted Living.
For 14 years spanning 2010 through 2023, Island City maintained a compliance record with zero deficiencies across renewal inspections. A September 18, 2023 renewal confirmed substantial regulatory compliance.
The September 5, 2024 renewal inspection marked a significant change, identifying five deficiencies. Staff lacked training in Alzheimer’s disease and related conditions; resident service plans omitted detailed medication administration protocols and behavioral management strategies; some employees had inadequate training in personal care and medication administration; service plans failed to document medication administrators; and the spa room and janitor closet lacked continuous exhaust ventilation. These issues represent emerging concerns in staff training, care planning documentation, and facility maintenance rather than direct care quality failures.
No complaint investigations or enforcement actions appear in available records.
Island City Assisted Living provides assisted living and memory care with integrated rehabilitation and hospice services. A shift in compliance emerged in the 2024 inspection, documenting gaps in staff training and care planning.
