Overview of The Oaks at Woodfield

The Oaks at Woodfield is a 38-bed skilled nursing facility that operates as part of a campus providing assisted living, memory care, and short-term rehabilitation. The property primarily caters to brief, post-acute recovery needs, resulting in a 38-day average length of stay. Admissions focus heavily on a payer mix of private pay (56%) and Medicare (40%). Daily operations are financially structured to assign 49.1% of overall revenue to payroll, which supports on-site features like a courtyard, pet-friendly living areas, a salon, and a resident garden in a walkable neighborhood layout.

State files reveal a solid compliance background alongside strong weekend nurse coverage, though day-to-day physical safety metrics show some mixed numbers. Direct nursing care averages 3 hours and 56 minutes per resident daily, highlighted by weekend registered nurse hours that beat Michigan averages by 79%. On the licensing side, the facility tracks well ahead of the state standard with a low long-term average of 0.5 citations per year, carrying zero federal fines or financial penalties over the past three years. Its standard September 2024 licensing review came back with zero deficiencies, while a June 2024 complaint check turned up one minor documentation note to update a resident care plan.

Clinical tracking shows zero percent rates for depression and solid scores for keeping long-term residents mobile, though unexpected weight loss and serious falls track above state averages. Conversely, short-stay charts reflect high-performing physical recovery, with 66.8% of rehab residents successfully returning straight home to the community.

Representatives researching local post-acute physical therapy or multi-level senior care options can use these state summaries to evaluate the building’s operations. Because the public records verify excellent short-term discharge success scores and a minimal citation history alongside heavy weekend nurse coverage and some long-stay physical safety risks, the data outline a stable rehabilitation setting.

Renaissance Gardens at Fox Run is a 200-bed skilled nursing and assisted living community at 41215 Fox Run Road in Novi, Oakland County, Michigan, operated by Fox Run Village, Inc., a non-profit continuing care retirement community. Medicare and private pay are accepted, with most residents coming for short-term stays averaging 51 days.

The facility is graded 4 stars by CMS, 12.7 percent above Michigan average, with staffing as the defining strength: nurse hours reach 5h 42m per resident per day, 34 percent above state average and ranked 7th out of 133 Michigan skilled nursing facilities. Across 4 inspections since 2023, the facility totaled 23 citations, all moderate in severity with no critical or serious findings, and six small federal fines totaling $14,000 issued in September 2023, with no payment denials. Recurring deficiencies in tuberculosis screening compliance and medication documentation have been noted across multiple inspection cycles. The community currently has substantial availability at 14 percent occupancy, well below Michigan average.

A fitness center, aquatics center, landscaped walking paths, and on-site dining are among the amenities. Offerings include rehabilitation services, respite care, and memory care.

With staffing levels among the highest in Michigan, Renaissance Gardens at Fox Run is built for short-term Medicare rehabilitation and assisted living within a full-continuum CCRC community in Novi.

Overview of Allegria Village

Allegria Village sits at 15101 Ford Rd in Dearborn, Michigan, a mid-rise community operated by Firo Operator LLC with 132 beds spread across studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom floor plans. The building opened four years ago. The neighborhood is moderately walkable, with a Walk Score of 52.

The numbers here tell a specific story. Seventy of 132 beds are occupied, and the average resident stays 31 days. This is not primarily a long-term placement facility. It runs like a post-acute hub, with short-term rehab, rehabilitation services, and respite care as the core offerings, backed by a doctor on staff and 24-hour staffing.

Total nursing care reaches 4 hours and 43 minutes per resident per day, with nurse aides covering 2 hours and 26 minutes of that. For families navigating a discharge from the hospital, these figures tell them what they’re getting.

Allegria Village carries four care tracks: nursing home, assisted living, independent living, and memory care, which means residents who start with short-term rehab have the option to transition rather than relocate. The community has a 55+ Living program and an active resident council. Recreational activities and beauty services are on-site.

State inspections have tended to center on medication management, care planning and documentation, staffing and staff credentials, and environmental safety. The facility accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.

For a family looking at post-acute rehab in the western Detroit metro, Allegria Village offers a multi-care-track setting where a short stay and a longer one can happen under the same roof.

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 446 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.
