River Oaks Senior Living
River Oaks Senior Living offers assisted living, independent living, memory care, and respite care in Rochester, MI. Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care, while assisted living supports daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication management. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision, and respite care offers a short-term stay for someone whose usual caregiver is traveling or recovering.
Having several care levels in one community can suit a resident whose needs grow over time, since a move between care types may not require leaving the community. River Oaks Senior Living has 117 beds. The community may be a good fit for someone who needs memory care or for a family seeking a short-term respite stay.
An on-site rehabilitation program and short-term rehabilitation services allow a resident to receive rehabilitation at the community rather than arranging transportation elsewhere. Visiting providers can also see residents through the community’s access to those services. A Walk Score of 56 is somewhat walkable, meaning some errands can be done on foot and a resident who no longer drives may be able to manage certain nearby trips independently.
