Lithia Valley Manor sits on the old Lithia Valley Road in Clinton Township, right where the former Lithia Valley Manor once stood, so folks familiar with the area might remember the building, which now serves as a recovery residence and a senior living community with all sorts of care and support on hand, stretching from independent living up to assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and even continuing care retirement options, and the place itself is surrounded by peaceful countryside not far from the Finger Lakes. Residents can pick from spacious one- and two-bedroom apartments, all with full kitchens, private bathrooms, cable TV, and what's believed to be internet access, and there are private rooms available, each varying a bit in size and price, with wheelchair accessible showers and amenities designed for older folks who want comfort and easy access. There's a wood shop, a fitness center, a library, a clubhouse, and even gardens for those who enjoy being outside, while indoor and outdoor common areas give people plenty of space to socialize, and the staff organizes regular picnics, parties, wellness programs, devotional gatherings, and even the occasional author book signing. The place features nutritious meals every day-including vegetarian options-served in a common dining area, with a beautician on-site, and the administrator's been running the facility for over twenty years, focusing on keeping everything clean, tidy, and safe with regular fire drills and up-to-date health practices using modern cleaning systems.
When it comes to care, Lithia Valley Manor offers assisted living for those who need a bit of help with bathing, dressing, grooming, and medication, as well as memory care designed especially for seniors with Alzheimer's or dementia, set up to reduce confusion and prevent wandering for people who need extra support. There are also services for folks who need ambulatory care, diabetic care, high acuity care, or incontinence help, and the staff pays attention-offering everything from transportation and parking for residents to helping out with day-to-day needs so that everyone can keep as much independence as possible, even as needs change. Pets can come along, the grounds are handicap accessible, residents get three meals a day, and life at the Manor is meant to stay both quiet and social-full of activities that suit many interests, whether it's devotional events, crafts, or watching TV in the living room.
Lithia Valley Manor also puts a lot of focus on addiction treatment options, with programs running from detox and short-term rehab-30, 60, or 90 days-to long-term recovery, including things like residential rehab, sober living, outpatient care, and several specialized tracks for veterans, women, men, pregnant individuals, LGBTQ+ clients, and couples, as well as co-occurring disorder treatment, but it's not set up for severe psychiatric cases and asks that clients be on no more than two psychiatric medications. The facility hosts daily 12-step meetings, group and individual therapy, and introduces people to adventure therapy, gardening, hiking, and more, along with life skills coaching-covering everything from daily living and job searches to anger management and hygiene. Residents can try out therapies like yoga, meditation, and hypnosis, along with established approaches like Cognitive or Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, neurotherapy, art therapy, and even equine therapy. There's a 24/7 helpline for support, and free, confidential services are available any time for people with substance or mental health concerns, including plenty of resources and information about substances, treatment options, relapse prevention, AA and NA meetings, sober companions, and even quizzes for self-assessment. Insurance is accepted from many big providers, including Medicaid, making the place more accessible to a wide range of folks, and the staff's pleasant, attentive, focused on safety, and dedicated to providing a home-like, hassle-free, community experience for active and independent seniors, as well as those needing more care and support.
