Riverpoint Crest Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

Riverpoint Crest Nursing and Rehabilitation Center offers skilled nursing and post-acute rehabilitation care at 2600 Old Cherry Point Road in New Bern, North Carolina. Operated by Principle Long Term Care, a management company focused on resident-centered care and clinical excellence, Riverpoint Crest serves families throughout Craven County and the surrounding eastern Carolina region. Situated along Old Cherry Point Road on New Bern's eastern side, Riverpoint Crest takes its name from its proximity to the Neuse River, which defines much of New Bern's character and geography. The Neuse — one of North Carolina's great coastal plain rivers — creates a setting of natural beauty that residents and visiting families can appreciate throughout the seasons. The facility's location near the Old Cherry Point corridor places it within easy reach of New Bern proper while offering a slightly quieter, residential character. For families concerned about emergency medical access, CarolinaEast Medical Center — New Bern's full-service acute care hospital — is accessible via US-70 and provides the region with comprehensive emergency, surgical, and specialty care. The drive from Old Cherry Point Road into central New Bern also gives families access to the city's full range of amenities: the waterfront dining and boutiques of downtown Middle Street, the historic grandeur of Tryon Palace and its expansive gardens, and the peaceful riverfront of Union Point Park where the Neuse and Trent rivers meet. New Bern's location in Craven County also puts Riverpoint Crest families in proximity to Havelock and the broader Crystal Coast region, with easy connections for families traveling from the Outer Banks area or from MCAS Cherry Point. Principle Long Term Care brings professional management and a people-first philosophy to Riverpoint Crest's daily operations. Skilled nursing services include 24-hour licensed nursing, physical and occupational therapy, speech therapy, wound care, and individualized care planning. The team is committed to helping residents achieve their best possible outcomes, whether the goal is a return home or ongoing long-term support.
