Dear Tawas Village F

Dear Tawas Village Families and Friends,
As we head into the fall season, we want to share a friendly reminder about helping us keep our residents, families, and team members healthy for this upcoming flu season, which thankfully hasn't hit Tawas Village yet!
We absolutely love having families and friends visit Tawas Village. Your visits and involvement are an important part of our community and mean so much to our residents. However, because many of the people who call Tawas Village home can be more vulnerable to illness, we ask that you please postpone your visit if you are feeling sick or experiencing any signs or symptoms of illness.
Please stay home if you are experiencing an elevated temperature or fever, cough, sore throat, congestion, vomiting, diarrhea, body aches, chills, or if you simply aren't feeling well.
Even symptoms that seem mild can have a much greater impact on an older adult. If you're unsure whether you should visit, please give us a call before coming in and we will be happy to help.
We know it can be disappointing to postpone a visit, but staying home when you are not feeling well is one of the simplest and most important ways you can help us protect our residents and one another.
Thank you for being our partners in keeping Tawas Village a safe, healthy, and happy home for our residents. We appreciate your understanding, cooperation, and the continued love and support you show our community.
Warmly,
The Tawas Village Team

In the last 4 years, my mom has been in 3 different assisted living homes down below. She was given adequate care, but the caregivers acted like they really didn't want to be there. They left her alone for long periods of time, rarely talked to her, etc. As soon as I walked into Tawas Village, I could feel the difference. People were smiling and kind, and the residents seemed happy! Now that she's been there a month, I'm sorry I didn't move her sooner. I thought that down in the city, the care would be better. Boy, was I wrong! Tawas Village was the best thing that could have happened to us!

We have had such a wonderful experience at Tawas Village. The administrator is completely on top of any changes we have had to my Mother’s medical care and they have just made this whole experience as easy as it possibly could be. My Mother has been very happy there with the staff, the activities and the food. Tawas Village really is a top of the line facility.

Thank you seems like such a small word when conveying our gratitude for the care of our very special Aunt. Tawas Village leadership and teams have been valued partners in this difficult transition from home to assisted living memory care. The kindness and compassion in caring for our unique needs is above and beyond our expectations. We are thankful for the skilled, knowledgeable and loving staff that make each and every day full of life for the residents. So very grateful for each and every one at Tawas Village!

Our Mom has been at Tawas Village for exactly two years. A lot has changed in two years. Originally she took care of herself and the Village took very good care of her and provided good nutrition, and various mental and social enrichment activities. Her physical and mental needs have changed drastically now. She needs 100% care for all her daily events. Through out this, the Village has adapted what they do for her. It is of great value to know that the level of care can change with a loved ones needs. The staff have always been spot on with helping and caring for our mom.

My father-in-law has now been at Tawas Village for 2 years, and loves everything about the place. We have been very impressed at everyone who works there; they have all become family to him! Living down state, we have such peace of mind about his care and living environment. In addition to the wonderful staff, the physical building is attractive, well kept up, clean, and in a beautiful setting. We totally recommend the place!
