There is no cost to families. Partner communities pay for our service, so we can compare options and recommend what fits your loved one—not a single building.
From the first conversation through move-in, we help you understand the options and choose with confidence.
Every senior has different care requirements, lifestyle preferences, and financial considerations. We take the time to understand your loved one’s situation before recommending potential living arrangements.

Discharge dates move in days. These pages are written for the hospitals families actually call us from.
Corewell Health
A discharge from Beaumont Royal Oak can turn a senior-living decision into a few days of work. Families in Royal Oak, Troy, Birmingham, and Madison Heights often hear that a parent cannot go home safely, then get a list of buildings that may not have openings or may not match the care level.
Trinity Health
Trinity Health Livonia (St. Mary Mercy) is one of the most common discharge starting points we see in western Wayne County. Families in Livonia, Plymouth, Farmington Hills, Northville, and Canton often have only a few days to find assisted living, memory care, or a licensed residential care home that can take their loved one.
Henry Ford Health
A discharge from Henry Ford West Bloomfield often involves families who want to stay in the lakes townships—West Bloomfield, Bloomfield Hills, Bloomfield Township, Farmington Hills, and Novi—while they sort out assisted living or memory care on a short timeline.
Michigan Medicine and Trinity Health
Discharges from Michigan Medicine or Trinity Health Ann Arbor (St. Joseph Mercy) mix medical complexity with a senior-living market that can cost more than the rest of Southeast Michigan. Families in Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti, Saline, and Plymouth need a next setting that can support specialist follow-up without ignoring monthly cost.
Answers to the searches families make before they know who to call—cost, licensing, hospital discharge, and how to pay.
Typical assisted living costs in Southeast Michigan, what monthly fees usually include, and how families compare pricing before they tour.
What families in Oakland, Wayne, and nearby counties usually pay for memory care, why it costs more than assisted living, and how to compare quotes honestly.
What to do when a hospital or rehab wants a senior living plan this week, including admission paperwork, care level, and safer alternatives to going home.
Assisted living is not a Michigan license type. How Homes for the Aged, adult foster care, LARA surveys, and memory care programs actually work for families.
A practical sequence for Michigan families after a fall: medical care first, then how to decide among home, rehab, assisted living, and memory care without touring a dozen buildings.
How VA Aid and Attendance can help wartime veterans and surviving spouses with senior living costs in Southeast Michigan, and why it is not instant.
Yes. There is no cost to families. Homeward Senior Placement is paid by partner communities, so you can get comparisons and placement help without a family fee.
Many families receive 3–5 tailored options within 24 hours of a consultation, depending on care needs, budget, and which communities have availability.
No. We help with personalized care assessments, assisted living, memory care, residential care homes, hospital and rehabilitation transitions, and community comparisons.
We can help on a short timeline. We look at which communities can admit soon, what paperwork they need, and which setting is the safer next step after discharge.
We help families across Southeast Michigan, including Farmington Hills, Northville, Plymouth, Livonia, West Bloomfield, Bloomfield Hills, Bloomfield Township, Novi, Ann Arbor, Troy, Sterling Heights, Rochester Hills, Canton, and Royal Oak.
We compare multiple communities. Our role is to help you understand the differences in care, cost, and fit—not to fill a single building.
