Overview of Bickford of Okemos

Bickford of Okemos offers assisted living and memory care in Okemos, MI. In assisted living, residents can receive help with bathing, dressing, and medication while having a private room.

Every resident has a private room, and pets are allowed for those who want to bring one. Salon services bring grooming into the community, while the outdoor courtyard gives residents a place to spend time outside; Montessori Memory Care is the community’s named memory care program. With a Walk Score of 44 / 100, the area is car-dependent, so most errands require a car or a ride, and Christopher Weber serves as the director.

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.
