The Groves Center has been serving the Lake Wales and Eastern Polk County area for over 40 years. Our facility is located close to local hospitals.
We provide post-acute services, rehabilitative services, skilled nursing, short and long term care through Physical, Occupational, and Speech Therapists; Registered and Licensed Practical Nurses; and Certified Nursing Assistants. This is complemented by Social Services, Activities, Nutritional Services, Housekeeping and Laundry Services. With over 80 years of combined experience, our staff of professionals is here to meet the needs of each and every patient and resident. Our post-acute services assist those transitioning from hospital to home. Our team of professionals will work with the physician to provide the level of care and services that will help each individual meet their goals for a successful discharge home. For those residents who can no longer be on their own and need long term care we offer general nursing and restorative services in a warm and home like environment.
The Groves Center provides coordinated, services to meet the care needs of the individual resident and patient. The interdisciplinary team members will collaborate with residents, patients, families, and staff to develop an individualized plan of care for each resident and patient. We strive to meet or exceed our customers’ expectations each and every day, while promoting our core values: Communication, Compassion, Dignity, Empathy, Integrity, Pride, Respect and Responsiveness.
The Groves Center will endeavor to be responsive to the ever-changing needs of the communities we serve. We will facilitate resident, patient and family involvement and, by integrating into our community, we will be the provider of choice for long term care in our community. We will foster an environment that encourages learning and embraces diversity in order to support the professional growth and development of our staff members.

“The Groves is a hidden gem in the quaint little town of Lake Wales. The building is one of the older buildings, but like a fine wine it has aged beautifully with it cleanliness and well kept appearance. The Excellent staff adds that special touch.”
