Recent reviews for nursing homes in Pontiac

Novi Lakes Health Campus

4.8
My dad had a wonderful stay. I never thought I would be able to take him home again, but he's home now because of the great care the staff takes of their residents. I would recommend this place!

Shelby Nursing Ctr in Shelby Twp, MI

4.0
That was okay, but not nearly as good as Sunrise. It was more rehab after my mother in law had been in the hospital. It wasn't bad but it didn't have the same homey feeling, it seemed more like a hospital.

Windemere Park Senior Community in Warren, MI

5.0
The staff is always friendly and very helpful to the residents. Not only do they give great care to the residents but they extend their care to the families too! My mom has been here for almost 3 years and never ever have we had a problem. I would highly recommend Windermere.
