Robbinswood Assisted Living

Serving our residents over 25 years, Robbinswood Assisted Living delivers our mission to provide amazing, affordable care. "We love what we do because we get to help people all day long", says Administrator, Don Trygstad. "How does it get better than that?" Don is passionate about providing living quarters and care that residents can afford, including work with the Michigan Waiver Program to assist seniors in procuring Medicaid benefits, and even filing for VA funding on behalf of tenants, an arduous process. "We embody a non-profit mindset, without being a non-profit".
