The Rivers Health & Rehab Center of Grosse Pointe is licensed as a nursing home and provides 24-hour skilled nursing oversight for residents who need ongoing clinical monitoring. Professional nurses manage medication schedules, wound care, post-acute recovery plans, and coordination with outside physicians and specialists. Rehabilitation services are integrated into daily routines, allowing residents to work with physical, occupational, and speech therapists without leaving the building.
Additional clinical resources target specific health needs. Consistent diabetes management includes blood-glucose monitoring, insulin administration, and dietary adjustments designed by nursing staff in collaboration with a registered dietitian. A certified speech therapist is on site to address communication or swallowing challenges, creating individualized therapy sessions and progress reviews. These medical supports operate alongside the center’s broader rehabilitation program, so residents can maintain or regain function while remaining under one roof.
Accommodation options range from private studios to companion suites. Many rooms provide Wi-Fi, cable or satellite television, individual climate control, and kitchenettes for light meal preparation, while select units add outdoor decks, balconies, or patios. Common areas feature a piano or organ for resident use, and on-site parking is available. Because floor plans vary, not every accommodation includes every feature, so prospective residents are encouraged to confirm which specifics come with each room type.
Dining follows a restaurant-style format, with meals prepared by a professional chef and served throughout the day rather than in fixed sittings. Standard menus cover balanced entrées, vegetarian selections, and physician-approved therapeutic diets, including options for residents managing diabetes. Guests may join residents for meals, and staff can coordinate advance notice for family visits to ensure seating.
Daily life is supported by an activity center that schedules clubs and community gatherings, a library and computer lounge for reading or internet access, and organized social outings to local venues. Residents may enjoy the swimming pool, attend happy hour socials, or participate in yoga and chair-yoga classes. Intergenerational programs, birthday parties, and live-music events round out the calendar, providing structured opportunities to stay engaged both inside and outside the building.
