Who holds the license for The Cortland Holland Meadows?

The licensee of record is AHR Holland MI TRS Sub, 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 The Cortland Holland Meadows accept residents with Alzheimer's or dementia?

Yes, according to LARA's file, which lists Alzheimer's among the populations The Cortland Holland Meadows 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).

The disclosure has seven required parts -- mission, placement and discharge criteria, care planning, training, environment, activities and fees. The discharge criteria are the part families most often wish they had read sooner.

What did LARA's most recent inspection of The Cortland Holland Meadows find?

LARA's latest renewal licensing study of The Cortland Holland Meadows, published March 18, 2025 after an on-site inspection on March 4, 2025, established 6 rule violations, citing R 325.1954 (Meal and food records), R 325.1972 (Solid wastes), R 325.1975 (Laundry and linen requirements), R 325.1976 (Kitchen and dietary), 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.
