Hudson Pointe at Riverdale Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation

Hudson Pointe at Riverdale Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation sits in a bustling, residential part of Riverdale in the Bronx, so you get that city feel and a sense of neighborhood too, and they've got a newly renovated building with modern rooms that stay bright and clean, where each person has their own space and air conditioning to stay comfortable, and the whole place is wheelchair accessible throughout. The center provides care for a wide group of seniors, including those who need help with daily living, folks recovering from surgeries or illness, and those living with Alzheimer's and other kinds of dementia, and they have special programs and therapy areas set up for people who need extra support and memory care. They've got a big clinical staff with physicians, nurses, dental care, psychologists, geriatric psychiatrists, and a nutrition team that includes a registered dietitian to help plan the meals with input from chefs and meal planners who specialize in senior nutrition, so everyone gets meals that match their health needs and dietary preferences, and there's an in-house salon, complimentary TV and phone service, concierge help, and staff that the residents describe as joyful and friendly. National HealthCare Associates, who run skilled nursing centers all across the Northeast, manage the place, and the care team tries to treat everyone like family, making sure to follow personalized care plans, whether someone's staying short-term for rehab or long-term for ongoing health support, and they have dedicated services for cardiac rehab, transitional care, and sub-acute recovery rehabilitation in their therapy center. Activities run daily-from exercise, music, and games to social gatherings-so folks can keep their minds, bodies, and spirits active, and family and residents can join the Resident and Family Council to stay in touch with staff and talk through any concerns or ideas for better living. The building has 167 certified beds and works with Medicare and Medicaid, with outpatient clinical services and onsite medical care, and you'll see there's a strong focus on advanced technology and clean living spaces. Hudson Pointe's staffing levels sit below state and national averages, which CMS rates as much below average for both staffing overall and long-stay resident care, with one star in those areas, while short-stay care earns a below average two-star rating, but they do have a good record on certain safety points like low rates of pain, falls with major injury, and pressure ulcers, though their rates for things like urinary tract infections and hospital visits run a bit above average for the area.
