Riverside Healthcare Center sits in Saint Louis, Michigan, and serves seniors who need different levels of care like assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care for people with Alzheimer's and dementia, as well as independent living and home care services, and you'll find it at 1149 West Monroe Rd. The place has 39 certified beds and usually about 36 residents stay each day, with a nurse working about three and a third hours per person each day, and they offer services like medication help, bathing, dressing, around-the-clock supervision, transfer help, non-ambulatory care, physical therapy, and chiropractic services. They also provide post-acute health services for people recovering from hospital stays so they can return to independent living or go home when possible, and they support different diets including food for allergies and diabetes, serving all-day chef-prepared meals in a restaurant-style dining room, and kitchens in private rooms for those who like to be independent. People can pick studio rooms that come with private bathrooms, cable TV, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, phones, and some are already furnished if someone doesn't want to bring their own things. They provide housekeeping, dry cleaning, transportation, and parking, and inside there are things like a fitness room, movie theater, activity room, library, arts and music rooms, a game room, a spa/wellness spot, and outdoor areas such as walking paths, garden spaces, and places to sit and visit. There are resident- and family-run councils for sharing concerns and ideas, and lots of daily activities-some run by the staff, others led by residents-to keep people active, along with special movie nights and music events.
The nursing home service at Riverside Healthcare Center is open day and night for those who need more help, offering skilled care after surgeries or for people with serious medical needs, and the place is managed by Pioneer Healthcare Management, running as a for-profit corporation, and it accepts Medicaid and Medicare. The nursing home is rated 1 star by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, and recent inspection reports show 37 deficiencies noted across several areas, with 6 related to infection control, and one latest routine report-on March 27, 2025-showed 10 deficiencies, including one for infection control, one for food safety and handling, and one for telling residents about Medicaid/Medicare coverage and outlining possible bills, with another deficiency for not making a plan for new residents' immediate needs within two days of arrival; none of these caused actual harm but were considered to have the potential for more than minimal harm. The nurse turnover rate is 42.9%, which is lower than the state average. There are several programs set up to help residents regain strength, function, and independence after injury or illness. People can schedule tours or ask about prices and what's available, and the community aims to support a comfortable, welcoming environment though, like most places, it's had inspection issues to work through over time.
