A couple years ago our dad asked us to help him find assisted care living. He hoped to stay local. I toured the facility with Brook program manager Ayme and later toured with dad. He liked the atmosphere right away. Our dad has always been very independent and competent. We knew the process of moving to assisted living might present challenges. From day one, every staff member showed the utmost respect, care, and consideration. Staff encouraged participation in activities but gave individuals space to make their own decisions. Every staff member has been amazing. Dad sends a special shoutout to Mary, Dani, Ayme, and Dawn (and many more!) Our dad has gotten so much healthier and happier since joining the Brook family. The Brook of Houghton Lake treat every resident as family. We appreciate beyond words each and every one of them. We couldn’t recommend them more. With greatest appreciation!

I have the pleasure of knowing the activities coordinator and I know she is always looking for ways to enrich the lives of the residents!

My mom was here and got displaced by a fire in her wing. I told the girls I wanted her back as soon as possible. During the time that she was else where Mary and Jodi would go and visit mom. I was so happy when mom got to come back and meet Amy the director and her son gunner. He liked visiting with my mom too. My mom has passed away since but I still like to visit and keep in touch with my girls at the Brook they are part of our family! I have say that all of the staff that I had pleasure of meeting treated me and my mom with the best care. I also have to say I made friends with some residents that blessed my memories of good discussions

I recently toured The Brook of Houghton Lake with Ayme, a registered nurse there, and she was absolutely wonderful. From the start, she was warm, friendly, and easy to talk to”she made the whole experience comfortable and informative. The environment at The Brook felt peaceful, clean, and welcoming. It’s clear that the staff really cares about the people who live there. Everyone I came across seemed kind, attentive, and happy to be part of the community. Ayme made a great impression and really represents the heart of what makes The Brook feel like a great place for senior living. I left feeling confident that it’s a place where people are truly cared for.

Ayme and the staff are some of the most caring and compassionate people I have ever met. They go above and beyond for the residents and their families. From the day mom moved in until her passing the care and support was exceptional. The support they gave our family during moms final days was heartfelt and helped make an emotional time easier. I highly recommend if you are looking for a clean, caring, friendly place for yourself or a loved one. May God bless each of them richly.

I would highly recommend the Brook of Houghton Lake for either independent or assisted living for a loved one. My Mom lived resided at the Brook for over two years before her passing. I enjoyed meeting with her almost daily and developing relationships with residents and staff. The Manager Pam, is incredible and has a compassion to serve each residents needs. Five stars for sure.

It's been 2 months since my aunt, Erma Stevens passed away. While she was living there she was well cared for by your staff in a most professional way. They checked on her every day including when she was in hospice. Pam, the director, does an amazing job and puts in time beyond her normal hours scheduled to work. The negative comments sent by her godchild, were certainly not correct. she only visited twice, and then when she passed, she couldn't even be bothered to attend the service in Houghton Lake, nor at the graveside. I want to thank Pam and her staff for all they did to help my aunt during her stay it was truly appreciated. John Lohrstorfer

I wanted to thank Pam Wilcox and all the staff at The Brook of Houghton Lake for their exceptional care of their residents during this past year. I wanted to congratulate everyone at The Brook for staying COVID free this year! It has been challenging for staff and residents and their family and friends but their conscientiousness has paid off. Residents and staff have been able to get their first vaccinations and soon will get their second shots. I have witnessed the compassion the residents have received from staff doing extra for the residents during this pandemic and am very impressed by them all.

Disgusted Starting at this Facility I thought wow I have the best job until working there for over 6 months I was very disgusted who i was working for. We were always understaffed and asked nurmerous times at staff meetings please give us another worker for midnight because if a fire or other emergency happened how am I one person supposed to get 40 residents out of the facility assisted and independent by myself and they still refused,I felt like I was just told to pick and choose who I get out pretty much. With the medication our RN is very lazy on reordering their medication until the last minute so she made us find a another resident with the same medication and the same dose and take one of theirs until the others arrived and then just replace it. The rounds of checking on residents hourly is not met a lot of them would be ignored and soaked when I came in for my shift because previous shift would be lazy to the ones that needed more assistance than others. Pay is very minimal for christmas i spoke to quite a few of the independant residents that donated more than 3000.00 for us workers and only the ones that worked there the longest got couple hundred the rest went to the company. I am very disappointed that there is a company like this still running and taking advantage of people who dont have a voice for themselves. Please do not let your loved ones stay here.
