About Pinecrest Medical Care Facility

+
Pinecrest Medical Care Facility stands as a cornerstone of healthcare in Menominee County, Michigan, offering skilled nursing care deep in the heart of the Upper Peninsula. Located on Main Street in Powers — a small, tight-knit community surrounded by the natural splendor of the UP — Pinecrest is a government-operated, county-run facility with a profound sense of mission: ensuring that rural seniors in this region have access to quality, dignified long-term care without having to leave the communities they've called home their entire lives. Powers sits in Menominee County along the Menominee River corridor, a region defined by pine forests, pristine waterways, and the quiet rhythms of rural Upper Michigan life. The area's natural environment — including access to Piers Gorge on the Menominee River and the expansive forests of the Escanaba River State Forest — offers families a serene backdrop during visits. The broader region connects to Menominee and Marinette, Wisconsin to the south, and to Escanaba to the north, where OSF St. Francis Hospital provides additional acute care services. Dickinson County Healthcare System in Iron Mountain also serves as a regional medical resource for complex care needs. As a county-operated facility, Pinecrest Medical Care Facility reflects the Menominee County community's commitment to caring for its most vulnerable residents. Staff members are often neighbors, lifelong residents, and familiar faces — creating an environment that feels less institutional and more like an extension of the community itself. The skilled nursing team delivers 24-hour nursing care, rehabilitation therapies, wound care, medication management, and personalized care plans designed to meet each resident where they are. For families throughout Menominee County — from Stephenson to Spalding and beyond — Pinecrest represents not just a care facility, but a community promise that no senior should be left without skilled, compassionate support simply because of where they live.
