Project: Expansion of Senior Services and Facilities


The Brook Retirement Community in Cheboygan

Given the aging population of Cheboygan County, there are many development opportunities associated with businesses that serve an older community. The construction of The Brook assisted living facility was an example of a major senior oriented development in 2010. Many other senior services projects could become a reality in our area.

The CEDG is currently working with developers to locate a Memory Care unit in our community to serve Alzheimer’s and patients with similar conditions close to home. The new business would work closely with Cheboygan Memorial Hospital and other agencies to serve that need.
