Yorkshire & Stonebridge Manors

My 95 year old father was in Yorkshire for 3 months after he left a skilled nursing home. The staff at this facility are very nice people and were very helpful each time I asked them to do something for father or I. My father liked the staff and especially liked the food that they served. Over the period of 3 months he must of told me how good the food was 10 times. My dad could not get around well and needed a walker, and the facility loaned him one that they had in their garage. They keep the residents busy with bingo 3 days per week and have musicians come in from time to time to entertain the residents. One of the things that both my mother and I liked about Yorkshire was that it had a 'homey' feeling. It did not feel like an institution and I think that helped my dad feel comfortable there. Also you should be aware that Yorkshire/Stonebridge is a non-profit facility. I think that is a big plus in their favor as their decisions are not based on the bottom line. I subtracted one star for the medical people. Be aware the medical people are NOT included with the monthly room and care charge. My mother can longer drive and since I live 1,500 miles from Grand Rapids we felt we would go with the medical staff that Yorkshire used. I did not feel that the medical people kept the family very well informed regarding my fathers very complicated condition. In fact one time when one of the medical staff was leaving the facility my mother stopped the lady to ask some questions about my father and about a week later she received a bill for $300. All in all, if you have a loved one that needs assisted living I would recommend you give Yorkshire/Stonebridge a close look. I am happy that my dad's stay was as pleasant as possible before he left the world.

Wonderful caregivers who have taken the time to get to know each patient. Very happy with this facility and its service.
