Overview of Cambrian Senior Living
South Lyon’s Cambrian Senior Living occupies 52365 W. 10 Mile Road, South Lyon, Oakland County, MI, in a highly walkable neighborhood (walk score 78, ranked 36th statewide). The 90-bed memory care facility is operated by Cambrian Of Lyon, LLC. Ranked 164th among Michigan’s 437 senior communities by capacity, the property advertises 24-hour staffing, farm-to-table dining, and specialized programming for dementia and Alzheimer’s residents.
Deficiency metrics place Cambrian 25 percent below state average, with 0.7 violations per year versus Michigan’s 0.9. Yet inspection documents reveal a troubling picture.
Opened February 2017 with zero deficiencies and full fire certification, the facility maintained that trajectory for six years. The gap widened in September 2023 when two violations emerged: service plans overdue for annual updates and PRN medications lacking proper administration instructions.
By July 2025, deficiencies had doubled to four, documenting medication administration errors with missed doses and failed documentation, uncovered garbage throughout the building, thermometers absent from resident food storage, and hazardous cleaning agents stored in locations accessible to residents with cognitive impairment.
No complaint investigations or enforcement penalties appear in available records. The inspection pattern: zero violations in opening, then emerging gaps around administrative compliance and safety systems, suggests either insufficient systemic controls or degrading oversight as census increased. Most troubling are the repeated medication-related findings (documented in 2023 and 2025) and the presence of chemically hazardous materials within reach of vulnerable memory care residents.
Occupancy climbed from 38 percent (34 residents, September 2023) to 63 percent (57 residents, July 2025).
Cambrian Senior Living is a memory care operator facing growing challenges with medication management protocols, food safety monitoring, and securing hazardous substances from impaired residents.
