Who holds the license for The Cortland Terrace Cove?
AHR Northview Grand Rapids MI TRS Sub, LLC holds the license. The same licensee name appears on 3 other licensed homes in the five West Michigan counties this site covers.
The same licensee also holds The Cortland Rediscovery (Grand Rapids), The Cortland Lodge (Grand Rapids), and The Cortland Terrace Harbor (Grand Rapids).
Homes under one licensee tend to share staffing practices and policies; reading a sister home’s LARA reports can tell you how the operator responds when problems are found.
Does The Cortland Terrace Cove accept residents with Alzheimer's or dementia?
Yes -- the state file includes Alzheimer's among the populations this adult foster care home serves (aged and Alzheimer's).
Because AFC homes fall outside MCL 333.20178, nothing obliges this home to describe its dementia care in writing. Ask anyway -- a home that can put its approach on paper usually has one.
