NEW YORK -- Joan Rivers is no longer in intensive care, according to her daughter.

Melissa Rivers said Wednesday that her mother was moved to a private room "where she is being kept comfortable."

The 81-year-old was rushed to Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City last Thursday after she went into cardiac arrest during a procedure at a doctor's office.

Rivers is the host of "Fashion Police" on E! and presides over an online talk show, "In Bed With Joan." She also co-stars with her daughter on the WEtv reality show "Joan & Melissa: Joan Knows Best?"
