Overview of New Hope Bay West

New Hope Bay West is a 50-bed assisted living and memory care community at 668 N. Pine Road in Bay City, Bay County, Michigan. Operated by New Hope Bay West, LLC, the facility provides enhanced independent living and enhanced memory care with 24-hour nursing staffing under an all-inclusive pricing model. John Czarnecki served as administrator at original licensing.

The facility features a spacious dining room with home-cooked meals, sun room, salon, living room, fitness area, and large interior courtyard. Transportation to medical appointments is provided. Operating hours are Monday through Saturday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Walk score is 84, ranked 19th of 702 Michigan facilities, placing the community in an exceptionally walkable setting where daily errands require minimal or no car use.

The inspection record shows perfect compliance.

September 2018 original licensing found substantial compliance and approved a temporary 50-bed license. March 2023 renewal notification confirmed license continuation with no deficiencies. March 2024 renewal inspection with census of 25 residents and 7 staff interviewed found the facility in substantial compliance with no deficiencies cited. No complaint investigations or enforcement actions appear in available records.

The zero-deficiency record across all inspections over the facility’s operational history reflects disciplined administrative execution and consistent attention to licensing standards.

The facility maintains 50 percent occupancy as of March 2024. The moderate capacity enables both individualized resident attention and sufficient population for community programming. All-inclusive pricing removes cost variable considerations from the placement equation. The small footprint and 24-hour staffing model suggest the operational structure prioritizes direct resident oversight.

The very walkable Bay City location serves residents valuing neighborhood integration and independent local access.

New Hope Bay West is suited for residents seeking assisted living or memory care with sustained zero-deficiency compliance, exceptional walkability, and small-scale community environment.

Overview of Westgate Living Center

Westgate Living Center is a 34-bed skilled nursing and assisted living community in Ironwood, Michigan, offering long-term care, short-term rehabilitation, memory care, and hospice and palliative care services in Gogebic County. The facility is privately owned and operated by Heather Watt.

Westgate holds a 4-star CMS overall rating. Across five inspections since 2011, the facility averages 1.3 deficiencies per year — 75% better than the Michigan average of 5.2. The most recent renewal inspection in October 2024 cited four deficiencies involving physician orders for assistive devices, tuberculosis screening timelines, staff training documentation, and sanitation logs.

A substantiated complaint investigation in June 2024 found that a resident sustained fractures after staff left her unattended contrary to her service plan — the one material finding in the record. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions appear in any report.

Nurse staffing averages 4 hours and 32 minutes per resident per day, above the Michigan average of 4 hours and 15 minutes, placing Westgate 35th of 133 Michigan skilled nursing facilities on that measure. The Health Inspection and Staffing CMS sub-ratings each exceed the state average, while Quality Measures trails. Additional services include respite care, caregiver education, and dietary services, which round out the program offering alongside the rehabilitation and memory care tracks.

Westgate Living Center is best suited for residents seeking long-term or memory care placement in a small, privately operated community, as well as post-acute patients pursuing short-term rehabilitation in Ironwood.
