Annual Mother’s and Father’s Day Lunch

We cannot begin to thank you for the wonderful care Jeanette received during her stay with you. While she wanted to be in her own home, you made it possible for her to enjoy her time there. Your compassion, concern, and support was so wonderful. There are many of you we would individually like to thank, but for fear of missing someone, we hope you will take it upon yourselves to know who helped her the most. But we know each and every one of you makes a contribution for everyone’s well-being. Thank you again for your wonderful and generous care of Jeanette.

I really enjoyed my stay here at Medilodge of Portage. Therapy did a wonderful job at my recovery. The staff was helpful with all my needs when I required them. Bayan, Jameshae, Marcie, and Sandra stood out to me the most, but overall, your staff are fabulous.

Thanks so much for the wonderful, thoughtful care you’ve given both of my parents.

I‘m originally from San Antonia, Texas and moved to Portage, MI to have colon cancer surgery in 2016. From there I was sent too many different hospitals until I ended up at MediLodge of Portage for my rehab. I’ve enjoyed the staff here who have taken care of me since May 2018. I particularly would like to thank Kelly, Theresa, Kara, Pam, Tammy, and Derrick for the care they have given to me in these past 4 months. Without them I wouldn’t have made it as far as I have.

I felt very comfortable with my stay here at MediLodge of Portage. I feel like my goals were met and I was able to walk again. The Nurses, Aides, Doctors, Therapy Team and the rest of the staff were really nice. I did more here than I could do at three other rehab centers. MediLodge of Portage has great rehabilitation services. If I were ever in need of these services again, I would be more than willing to return. I would recommend this facility to others.

I arrived here at MediLodge of Portage on January 19^th for some rehab before I transition back to home. Right away, I received a warm welcome. All the staff treated me very well during my stay here. I had good meals and wonderful Therapy. Enjoyed activities and met some great people like my roommate. In some small way, I hope I made a difference here as they did for me. I know I will miss everyone and be missed by them all as well but it’s time to go home. Hopefully, if I need to come back, it will just be for a visit.

I have been treated very well during my stay at MediLodge of Portage. Fredericka was the one who made my stay here memorable. She always brightened up my day with her bubbly personality. Tina was also a great addition and was very patient and caring with me. Therapy was extensive and pushed me as much as I pushed myself. Overall everyone has been terrific! I’d recommend MediLodge of Portage to anyone who has to go to a facility.

  I want to take this opportunity to thank the entire staff at Medilodge of Portage for making my recovery and rehabilitation possible.

 I arrived at the facility by way of an ambulance and confined to a stretcher back on March the 19th 2020. At the time my pain level was off the chart and my mood and disposition were quite unfavorable.   I sincerely apologize to the nursing staff and CNA's then who had to deal with me in those early days of my stay.

 Since that time my physical condition has been substantially and visibly improved and I have been cleared for discharge on May 21, 2020.

 Over the past 2 months, I have not only made some dear friends but many of you have become like family members since I don't have any immediate family in the area. This unforeseen reality has gone a long way in helping with my recovery.

 Your unrelenting patience in the administering of medications, meal preparation and delivery, custodial, laundry services, administrative services, and hot coffee is unsurpassed in the healthcare industry.

 During this Coronavirus epidemic, all of you have demonstrated not only are you essential but quite invaluable. I truly hope that corporate levels realize that all of you have earned your pay, and still deserve a considerable increase in pay and benefits for your levels of professionalism.
