Tuscola County operates Heritage Hill Assisted Living & Memory Care, a 56-bed nursing home on Cleaver Road in Caro, in Tuscola County. The facility opened in 1987 and expanded substantially in 2013, adding a secured memory care unit and increasing licensed capacity from 38 to 56 beds. It accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.
The community offers secured memory care, private apartment-style suites, activity programs, transportation services, dietary accommodations, and pets. All features are confirmed and active.
Current occupancy is 36 percent (20 of 56 beds occupied), well below the state average, indicating immediate openings. The resident population is predominantly Medicaid (80 percent), with an average stay of 227 days, reflecting a long-term care model.
The June 2023 renewal inspection documented zero deficiencies and approved license renewal. This result aligns with prior inspections in 2013 and 2009, both of which also found full compliance. What sets Heritage Hill apart is staffing depth: nearly 6 hours of nursing care per resident daily, the second-highest in Michigan and 41 percent above the state average. That investment appears directly in its budget; payroll accounts for 70.8 percent of revenue, the sixth-highest proportion among Michigan nursing homes.
Heritage Hill serves residents seeking long-term skilled care in a rural setting with exceptional staffing resources and current availability.
