Alpena’s Besser Senior Living Community is a 52-bed blend of assisted living and memory care which operates across 48 rooms, 20 of which are designated for dementia care and 28 for independent or early-decline residents. The building sits downtown with a Walk Score of 75; it’s ranked 53rd in Michigan for walkability.
Operating under 24-hour staffing with respite options and religious services, the community emphasizes activities and outings while permitting visitors to dine free and overnight guests at no charge. Residents furnish their own apartments. Home-cooked meals and structured engagement characterize daily operations.
The compliance record is notably strong.
A February 2020 original licensing study found the facility in substantial compliance with zero deficiencies at opening.
Three years later, the August 2023 renewal inspection identified five deficiencies; all administrative or procedural in nature. TB screening documentation was incomplete; the facility had not notified the state of an administrator change within required timeframes; employee health records lacked annual screening results; and no designated supervisor was on-site for third shift. These reflect gaps in documentation systems and staffing assignment rather than direct care failures.
No complaints have been filed, no enforcement actions taken, and no fines imposed. The facility’s 38 percent below-average deficiency rate compares favorably to Michigan’s nursing home performance baseline.
Census as of August 2023 reached 30 residents in 52 available beds.
Besser Senior Living suits residents transitioning to assisted living who value downtown walkability, community outings, and independent apartment living, or those with cognitive decline seeking memory-specific programming in a smaller, personable setting.
