The assisted living portion is licensed as a Home for the Aged or Adult Foster Care and the skilled-nursing portion is LARA-licensed under the Public Health Code (1978 PA 368, Parts 213/217 and the Adult Foster Care Facility Licensing Act), with CCRC contracts governed by Michigan insurance and consumer-contract law. A typical monthly range is $3,000 to $6,500 a month plus a significant entrance fee.
