Overview of StoryPoint Saline

Operating as part of Senior Living Ann Arbor, StoryPoint Saline is a 40-bed assisted living community on South State Road in Saline, Michigan. It offers three care levels: assisted living, independent living, and memory care. Residents can select from studio, one-, and two-bedroom floor plans in the three-story building.

The community sits in a car-dependent area with a Walk Score of 6, so a vehicle is needed for most errands. This setting charms occupants and families who value a more serene and residential neighborhood atmosphere instead of proximity to commercial activity. Currently, the facility operates at approximately 55 percent occupancy, with 22 residents on census at the latest inspection. This moderate occupancy level creates room for new admissions.

Inspections by Michigan’s Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs have noted issues surrounding medication administration practices, documentation accuracy, hand hygiene, and environmental maintenance. Such themes reflect regulatory attention to infection control and safety protocols in the facility.

An integral part of StoryPoint Saline’s service offerings is memory care, so it’s a fitting option for families seeking a care continuum in one location. The inclusion of independent living alongside assisted living and memory care lets occupants potentially age in place if care needs evolve, provided transitions between levels are offered.

Meadow Valley

5143 North Long Lake Rd, Traverse City, MI 49684
Overview of Meadow Valley

Meadow Valley is a 137-bed senior living community at 5143 North Long Lake Rd in Traverse City, Grand Traverse County, Michigan. The facility opened in 2024 under Oakleaf Village of Traverse City, LLC, offering independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, and memory care services. Administrator David Phillips leads the operation. The facility holds a regular license, and respite care is available.

The inspection record documents a significant shift. In October 2024, an original licensing study found the newly constructed 54-bed facility in substantial compliance, with zero deficiencies noted. Eight months later, following the facility’s expansion to 137 beds, a June 3, 2025 renewal inspection identified two deficiencies related to food and dietary practices. Inspectors found documented meal census records were lacking and noted potential contamination risks involving uncovered food items and food storage practices. These concerns represent a meaningful change from the facility’s initial compliance record.

The community’s amenities include a fitness center and pickleball courts, supporting active recreation. Casual and fine dining options accommodate residents’ varied preferences and dietary needs. A movie theater provides entertainment and serves as a social gathering space. Meadow Valley benefits from exceptional walkability, with a walk score of 85 ranking it among Michigan’s top facilities for neighborhood accessibility. Most errands are accomplishable on foot, and essential services are within walking distance.

Meadow Valley fits residents seeking a continuum of care in a highly walkable, activity-focused environment with skilled nursing and memory care options.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Michigan

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Michigan?

Assisted living in Michigan supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Michigan?

Assisted living in Michigan is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Michigan Medicaid cover assisted living?

Michigan Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Michigan) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 439 assisted living facilities in Michigan. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Michigan?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Michigan, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Michigan?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
