Who holds the license for Riley's Grove Assisted Living?

The licensee of record is Riley's Grove Assisted Living, LLC, and it is the only home in our five-county area under that licensee name.

A single-home licensee often means the owner is closely involved day to day; ask who covers when the owner or administrator is away.

Does Riley's Grove Assisted Living accept residents with Alzheimer's or dementia?

Yes, according to LARA's file, which lists Alzheimer's among the populations Riley's Grove Assisted Living serves. As a home for the aged, it must give families a written description of its dementia services if it markets Alzheimer's or dementia care (Michigan Public Health Code, MCL 333.20178).

That written description must cover the program's philosophy, admission and discharge criteria, how care plans are set, staff training, the physical environment, activities, and any supplemental fees. Ask for it before a tour, and compare the fee section against the monthly quote you are given.

What did LARA's most recent inspection of Riley's Grove Assisted Living find?

LARA's latest renewal licensing study of Riley's Grove Assisted Living, published March 13, 2026 after an on-site inspection on February 10, 2026, established 4 rule violations, citing R 325.1913 (Licenses and permits; general provisions), R 325.1923 (Employee's health), R 325.1975 (Laundry and linen requirements), and R 325.1979 (General maintenance and storage).

A renewal study that establishes violations normally ends with LARA recommending renewal contingent on an acceptable corrective action plan from the licensee. Ask the home for that plan and what changed.
