Visiting Angels Plymouth-Canton is proud to serve and support aging loved ones and their families in Belleville, MI. In addition to a picturesque downtown located right on the shores of Belleville Lake which is great for boating and fishing, Belleville might be best known for being home to the  National Strawberry Festival. For over 30 years, this family-friendly, 3-day long extravaganza for the young and old has offered a variety of free events that include live music, bingo, crafters tents, a children’s area, and a crowning of the Strawberry Queen and Prince. 

These are just a few of the reasons why Belleville, MI is an ideal location for an aging loved one to enjoy their golden years. The city also caters to its aging population through recreational outlets, housing options, medical facilities, transportation, and more. And with our companion care services, our caregivers are happy to transport your loved one to these social gatherings so they can connect with the community.

Recreational Opportunities:

In addition to the National Strawberry Festival that happens in June, Belleville hosts various events throughout the year for seniors to get out and engage with their community such as a weekly Farmers’ Market that kicks off in June, the Van Buren Summer Concert Series where a wide array of different styles of music can be enjoyed such as classic rock, R&B, and Motown, and there’s even a Pumkin’ Roll in October (must bring your own pumpkin!). And on the first Sunday of each month, the community comes together for Bugles Across America which honors those who have served our country. 

Senior Housing Options:

Belleville offers a range of senior housing options, including retirement communities, assisted living facilities, and senior apartments such as Cedar Woods Assisted Living Facility, Lakeside Assurance Assisted Living, Columbia Court Apartments retirement community, Lucia Cottage, and Cabin by the Lake to name a few. All of these choices provide a sense of security and companionship for older residents.

Medical Facilities:

As loved ones become older, we know healthcare is top of mind for them and their families. Nearby cities such as Ann Arbor and Detroit provide nationally-renowned healthcare facilities, but there are several options right within Belleville such as Oakwood Medical Center, Van Buren Urgent Care, Belleville Family Health Center, and Ivy Rehab Physical Therapy. You can rest assured that your senior’s medical needs will be well taken care of. 

Transportation:

When seniors don’t have a family member to transport them to doctors appointments, the grocery store, or to a nearby park to get some exercise, they can access the SMART bus, Southeast Michigan’s regional public transportation provider, on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. 

Supportive Organizations:

The Sumpter Township Hall is home to Belleville’s Senior Center on Sumpter Road in Belleville. It provides an array of supportive services such as hot meals, emergency food assistance, access to ride shares on Tuesdays, and help finding senior living and care facilities. In addition, they offer fun activities for seniors that include bingo, quilting, bible study, and cardio drumming. 

Belleville is committed to its aging population and their families. This beautiful lake-front town with easy access to both Ann Arbor and Detroit has everything families could want. And if you are looking for award-winning home care in Wayne County, consider Visiting Angels.
