Lakeisha’s Success Story

"I enjoyed the Vent Dialysis Unit, everything went smoothly. The Respiratory Therapists weaned me off of my vent very well! The Dialysis treatment has been going really well. It's been a great experience, the staff is great!"

Very professional. Physical Therapy is super! I got tearful when I saw George walking---those therapists work miracles!

Mr. Harp was admitted to MediLodge of Grand Blanc on September 17, 2019 on a ventilator for respiratory failure after being unconscious for over two months. "I was so scared of not being able to breathe, my anxiety was so high. Heidi, the Respiratory Director, stood by me and helped coach me through the breathing process while the nursing staff made sure I was going to be ok. I was off the ventilator for a whole day. Each time I felt more and more comfortable with myself knowing I was able to do this! I was scared but the RT and Nursing staff calmed me down, talked me through the process and I had lots of people around me encouraging me and telling me how great I was doing without the ventilator on!" Soon Mr. Harp's trach was capped, and the MediLodge team graduated him to the step down rehabilitation unit from the ventilator unit. "The Pulmonologist pulled my trach out and I didn’t even feel it. I think very highly of the staff, from housekeeping to the big shots. Heidi, my Respiratory therapist, was excellent and encouraged me. She even bought me balloons to congratulate me on going home. I feel like I was brought back from the grave, but here I am going home. I had fun here. My wife of 53 years told me she picked the right nursing facility. I would recommend MediLodge of Grand Blanc to everyone!"

Physical Therapy was great! I will definitely recommend this Rehabilitation Center to others!

"Having dialysis on-site is convenient. The dialysis staff are not only very nice, but they are also very good! Some days I feel like I have more energy!"

"My rehabilitation experience at Medilodge has been a lot of fun! All of the staff was very cooperative and gave honest answers to my questions. I am now able to get around and do what I want!"

All the staff has been fantastic! Especially the dietary department. The kitchen staff paid close attention to my dietary restrictions and allergies. I want to thank all the staff for being kind, gentle and accommodating during my rehabilitation stay!

I am really enjoying the new therapy gym and my brand new room at MediLodge of Grand Blanc. The best part is I get my own shower in my room. The people here are so nice and helpful.

"The staff were all great; from the Respiratory Therapists, The Rehab Therapy team, to the Aides and the Nurses. Thanks to everyone, recovery was a great experience."

I felt very independent as if I did in my own home. Everyone is positive, and the nurses and aides are wonderful!
