Commonwealth Senior Living at Grand Rapids

My grandpa lived the final weeks of his life at Commonwealth. I would often visit him and was impressed with the dedication and professionalism of the techs. I especially want to give a shout out to Shantee (forgive my spelling). My grandpa called her his fourth child and she was proud to earn that honor! Sometimes he would be in a sour mood and Shantee would immediately put a smile on his face simply by entering the room. She understood him because she cared enough to take the time to do so. She is an asset to the organization. Katina is another amazing staff. My grandpa, while his body was going through the shutdown process, refused to eat. Katina used her own money and drove to Popeyes to get him mashed potatoes and another time brought him Panera soup. While he was hospitalized for a few weeks, she texted every day asking for updates. She cared about him and wanted only the best for him. The other staff were exceptional, also. Thank you Commonwealth for helping make my grandpa's final days comfortable.

As a hospice liaison, ai visit many facilities. The building is beautiful, but the team is what stands out. Tracy and Vickie work very hard to ensure the right residents are placed. I’m so grateful for the relationship and the care.

Our mother has been living at Commonwealth for a little over 6 months now and we really like it. She is comfortable, has an excellent room, and says that she really does like living there. The best part of it all is that I can feel the good vibes and love that are being bestowed onto the residents. The aides really care about what they are doing to help everyone that lives there....from small needs to larger needs. I truly appreciate that I can "really" not worry as much about my mom and her happiness. I know that Commonwealth has our best concerns in mind. Thank you ALL for that because this rodeo takes a village to wrangle and I need all the help that I can get.

Last fall we moved my uncle to common wealth from another facility and what a change he has made. He was not eating or leaving his room and even hospitalized. Since his move he eats 3 meals a day, joins in activities and loves bingo. We now moved our mother, his sister into common wealth January 1 2026. With her dementia we knew from our uncles care that this was the best place for her. 5* care, staff that cares for their wellbeing and knows them on a personal level and as a patient. The directors and all the staff are true professionals who care. Highly recommended.
