Overview of StoryPoint Grand Rapids East (samaritas)

StoryPoint Grand Rapids East, owned by StoryPoint Group, offers assisted living and independent living in Grand Rapids, MI. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while residents keep private living space; independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care. Having both levels means a resident’s needs can grow over time without requiring a move to another community.

Housing includes studios, one-bedroom layouts, and two-bedroom layouts. A two-bedroom home can suit a couple moving together, while a studio provides one private living space, and the starting price of $1,999 gives families a baseline as they compare the housing options. Residents have access to a pool, fitness center, salon, courtyard, and walking paths for exercise, personal grooming, and outdoor time. The dining program serves chef-prepared meals made from scratch daily with fresh ingredients, so residents can eat prepared food without cooking for themselves; pets are allowed, and transportation is available for residents who use community-provided rides.
