Updated on April 3, 2022

The Residence at Presque Isle Bay offers breath-taking views of Lake Erie as well as the expertise and compassion of an IntegraCare-managed senior community.

“Serving seniors is a 24/7 job. Our team embraces this responsibility,” said Larry Rouvelas, Chief Executive Officer of IntegraCare, which took over management of The Residence at Presque Isle Bay on March 25, 2022. “It is exciting to welcome this new community to the IntegraCare family.” 

Based north of Pittsburgh, IntegraCare has operated senior communities for more than two decades, establishing a reputation as a great place to work and a great place to live. The Residence at Presque Isle Bay joins 15 other IntegraCare communities in Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia.

With a panoramic view of Lake Erie, The Residence at Presque Isle Bay evokes the spirit of the grand hotels of decades past while providing residents modern amenities and individualized personal care and memory care.

“Our team at IntegraCare makes us special, and for The Residence at Presque Isle Bay, our location makes us amazing,” Rouvelas said. “This community is located at the center of one of the most amazing natural resources in the Eastern United States.

“We also are located near the region’s major hospitals and rehabilitation centers,” added Rouvelas of the senior community located at 1012 West Bayfront Parkway in Erie.

Capital improvements of more than $900,000 will be invested to upgrade the community.

The Residence at Presque Isle Bay includes amenities such as:

  • Beautifully appointed dining room featuring individualized menu choices that adhere to doctor-recommended diets
  • Spacious activity lounge
  • Full-service beauty salon
  • Café
  • Expansive windows to enable residents to take in the panoramic views
  • Landscaped grounds conducive to outdoor walking
  • One-bedroom apartments
  • Enhanced nurse-call system

The Residence at Presque Isle Bay offers IntegraCare’s Life Stories Memory Care Program, which creates an environment that promotes a sense of belonging while focusing on remaining skills and abilities, enhancing them where possible.

“Our team supports positive behaviors through a structured daily routine,” Rouvelas said. “We provide opportunities for meaningful activities that improve the quality of life.”

IntegraCare brings to Erie the philosophy that a great place to work makes a great place to live. 

One way it does this is IntegraCare’s Motivational Advancement Program (MAP). MAP provides team members an opportunity for career growth and wage increases through a mentorship program.

“Over the years, Erie’s workers have built some great companies. Today, serving seniors is a profession with a bright future and a real mission,” Rouvelas said. “IntegraCare takes great joy in training and promoting its team members. If you want to grow your career in an attractive field, IntegraCare is the place to be.”
