Overview of Sanborn Gratiot Memorial Home

Sanborn Gratiot Memorial Home is a 32-bed assisted living community at 2732 Cherry Street in Port Huron, St. Clair County, Michigan, serving semi-independent seniors ages 55 and older. The facility explicitly targets lower-income residents seeking secure, affordable care, which is a specific market position rather than the generic “seniors” positioning many facilities adopt. Twenty-four-hour staffing is provided.

Amenities include 24-hour supervision, cable TV access, community living areas, laundry, medication administration, and balanced meals served three times daily.

Activities include exercise programs, holiday festivities, arts and crafts, entertainment by community groups and volunteers, bingo, on-site barber and beauty salon, podiatrist visits, and community senior programs. Walk score is 34, somewhat walkable. License.

Sanborn Gratiot maintains a zero-deficiency record spanning 19 years and seven renewal inspections from August 2007. The most recent renewal on August 7, 2024, documented 31 residents present, 3 staff interviewed, and zero deficiencies. December 2023 and 2022 renewals similarly found zero deficiencies and substantial compliance. All prior renewals back to 2007 documented identical findings, placing this facility in the top tier of Michigan compliant facilities.

Capacity modifications have reflected physical structure constraints rather than compliance failures. An August 2010 licensing study found the second floor uninhabitable, leading to reductions from 39 beds initially to 30 once confirmed. An office conversion in February 2022 allowed capacity to increase back to 32 beds, approved by state departments. The facility’s focus on single-floor occupancy is operationally sound.

Current occupancy stands at 97 percent, with 31 of 32 beds filled as of August 2024. This reflects genuine market demand for affordable residential care targeted at lower-income seniors. The facility serves a real population need while maintaining operational competence. No fines, enforcement actions, or complaint investigations appear in the record.

This is a straightforward, compliant facility with a clearly defined mission. The zero-deficiency record over 19 years reflects sustained attention to regulatory requirements rather than luck. The financial model supports serving lower-income residents without trading compliance for cost savings.

Sanborn Gratiot Memorial Home is suitable for families seeking affordable care for semi-independent seniors with a facility that operates reliably without regulatory friction.
