Compassionate care for every stage of memory loss
Specialized residential care for Alzheimer's, Lewy Body dementia, frontotemporal dementia, vascular dementia, and every other subtype — with transparent, all-inclusive pricing.
Memory Lane Michigan is a residential memory care community in Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti, MI, with all-inclusive flat-rate pricing ($9,500/month regular room, $9,900 master suite) and a 1:3 daytime caregiver-to-resident ratio.
If your loved one has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or another form of dementia, they need specialized care to preserve their quality of life. As dementia progresses, care requirements evolve — and are difficult to address in a private home or a standard adult foster care setting. At Memory Lane, our caregivers are specially trained and committed to encouraging meaningful moments, prioritizing your loved one's remaining abilities, and ensuring they remain engaged in the activities that bring them joy.
Transparent, all-inclusive pricing
Unlike most assisted living facilities, our price does not increase when a resident needs additional care. Our flat monthly rate covers room and board, round-the-clock care, all meals, and care supplies.
We accept long-term care insurance and are approved by many long-term care insurance plans. Medicare and traditional health insurance don't cover long-term Alzheimer's care, and Medicaid doesn't reimburse for this level of care — but our team can walk you through your options.

Every resident receives the same comprehensive set of services — no add-on fees.

Memory care for Alzheimer's disease
Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia, affecting nearly 200,000 adults over 65 in Michigan. Caring for a person as they progress through the disease requires a tailored approach, a caring hand, and expert training.
At Memory Lane, we approach Alzheimer's care from a place of empathy and understanding, focusing on the person first. Caregivers receive in-depth training on managing Alzheimer's behaviors, changes, and challenges. Each of our six-bedroom houses is staffed with two caregivers throughout the day and one at night — a familiar face is always there by your loved one's side.
Our flat monthly rate does not change as Alzheimer's progresses and care needs increase. That predictability matters when a family is navigating the disease.
We care for every subtype of dementia
While Alzheimer's is the most common cause of dementia, many Michigan families are navigating other forms — each requiring a personalized approach. Memory Lane's caregivers are professionally trained to support residents living with:
- ✓Alzheimer's disease
- ✓Lewy Body dementia
- ✓Frontotemporal dementia (FTD)
- ✓Vascular dementia
- ✓Parkinson's dementia
- ✓Huntington's dementia
- ✓Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome
- ✓Other dementia subtypes
Many memory care facilities won't accept residents with Lewy Body dementia because of behavioral challenges. We do — and our staffing model is built for it.
Caregivers chosen for character, then trained
Rather than hiring people who have been in the industry going from one workplace to the next, we employ individuals who live to serve others. Caregiving skills can be taught — integrity can't.
Every caregiver receives full skills orientation and dementia training during onboarding, plus required ongoing monthly training to ensure our work is constantly improving.
