On Leonard Street NE in Grand Rapids, roughly 3.7 miles from downtown and about a mile and a half from the nearest hospital, Skld Leonard is a 69-bed nursing home offering nursing care, hospice care, and respite stays. The Walk Score is 45. Most errands will need a car, but the location is manageable for families spread across the metro area.
The facility has been open for about 7 years. Sixty of its 69 beds are occupied, an 87% occupancy rate. The average stay runs 98 days, which places most residents somewhere in the middle territory between a short rehab course and a longer nursing arrangement. Total nursing care is 4 hours and 5 minutes per resident per day, with RNs accounting for 33 minutes of that directly.
For a 69-bed facility, the clinical range is wide. Specialty programs cover oncology, memory care, tracheostomy care, IV therapy, pulmonary care, and orthopedic rehabilitation. Therapy services on-site include physical, occupational, speech, respiratory, and neurological disciplines, backed by a therapy gym and adaptive equipment. Hospice and respite care are also part of the mix.
Nutrition-supervised dining is available, and an Active Resident Council gives residents a structured voice in how the facility operates. State inspections have tended to center on infection prevention and control, fall and injury prevention, and care planning and documentation. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are all accepted.
For residents whose recovery or care needs cut across multiple clinical areas, Skld Leonard offers a concentrated set of specialty tracks in a mid-sized Grand Rapids nursing home.
