Tunnel To Towers Alpena 5K Run & Walk

Everyone at MediLodge of Hillman has been great to me. It’s hard to pick one person that stands out, but there are a few who have. Toni, CNA, has an awesome personality. You can tell she is passionate about what she does and truly cares about her residents! Ellen and Kendall from the Therapy Department also stand out to me. Because of these ladies, I am so much stronger now. When I first got here, I would have to stop 3 or 4 times while coming down the hallway. Now, it is full steam ahead for me! I feel very confident about going home today. I’ve learned so much about myself while I’ve been here, and have such a positive outlook on life now! I want to thank everyone at MediLodge of Hillman for helping me through this journey and coming out on the other side, ready to conquer life!

I chose MediLodge of Hillman, because I have been here before and had a great stay. All of the staff here is amazing, especially the nurses and CNAs. If you ever need to go to a nursing facility, MediLodge of Hillman is definitely the place to pick!

When arriving at MediLodge of Hillman, it was one of the lowest times of my life. I was unable to sit up without a brace on and needed assistance. I was totally dependent on others to do the smallest task. Everyone from all departments (Housekeeping, Dietary, Nursing, Therapy, and Administration) all addressed me by my name and was kind and helpful at all times. I truly believe that by being treated with respect, like family, and treating my emotional health, made my recovery that much faster!

I chose MediLodge of Hillman because I have been here for short term rehab before, and was very happy with my stay. Every staff member has treated me very well. They couldn’t have been any better! The aides here are very helpful and have taken great care of me, especially Donna C. Donna and I just really connected right away. She is great at what she does, and you can tell she really enjoys taking care of people. The Therapy Department has done a fantastic job with my rehabilitation. I can really see and feel the improvements I’ve made since I first arrived.

“The facility was very clean, and I loved my large private room, lots of room for my family to visit me during my recovery process. Nursing staff took good care of me, and the Social Services department did a great job, my meals were great, I would definitely recommend Medilodge of Hillman to others.”

My son and daughter-in-law chose MediLodge of Hillman for me as they wanted me close to them. The kitchen stadd made amazing food. The food here is like 'Grandma's cooking'. Angie from therapy knew what she was doing and made it fun. Everything was so great. The staff on the floor was very good. I was a little sad when I found out I would be going home soon. My stay has been wonderful.

Every worker here at Medilodge of Hillman has been very helpful, patient, and nonjudgmental with me. No one wants to go through the experience of needing to be in a nursing facility, but if it needs to happen, this is the place to be. It is such a clean and quiet place, and the surrounding property is so beautiful and green.

I chose MediLodge of Hillman for myself because I've been here in the past and it was a fantastic stay. Everyone here is so great, and I live across the road and cannot wait for springtime to come so that I can walk over and visit everyone!  

My stay has been fantastic! The employees are fantastic and I can really talk with them. The food here is great! The ladies in the therapy department stood out and I was very impressed with how they really cared about getting me well.
