I am/was a resident of this facility

I have been a resident of River Commons Senior Living for a few years now. It's independent living, and I love it here. Everybody's friendly, and the staff and the residents all get along. No complaints at all. The place is always kept clean and nice. It's homey and not like a hospital setting. I have the largest 1-bedroom with a very large living room and bedroom. I have an outside patio, too, and I'm on the third floor. I have a walk-in closet and a little kitchenette that doesn't have a …

I am/was a resident of this facility

I am staying in the independent living community of River Commons Senior Living. The upkeep is pretty good, but you can tell that the corporation isn't particularly interested in this site. We have chairs in the dining room that you can't sit on because you'd almost hit the floor. The staff is really helpful, but it's also very cliquish, for one thing. The other thing is, they have some really strange rules. The head of the office and some of them, I don't find them particularly compassiona…

I visited this facility

I went to River Commons Senior Living for a tour. When you do the tour, they actually treat you to lunch, which is the biggest meal of the day, and the food was excellent. The people who served you were top-notch. It was very clean and very accommodating. There were a few reading sections throughout the campus. They had a room for crafts and another one for puzzles. They had a little library that you could read in. They had laundry facilities. Right after they had eaten their big meal, they had music, entertainment…

River Commons Senior Living is great. I just got back from dinner, where we had French dip sandwiches, vegetables, and dessert. I like it here. Everyone is friendly and helpful. If you have a problem, you can ask somebody, and they'll do their best to help you. I'm happy I picked this place. The staff is great. Everyone looks out for everybody else. I had a tray that was a little heavy for me to carry, and then a guy who was right there said, 'Here, let me take it to your table.' They are very c…

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

My mom has moved into River Commons Senior Living. She actually picked it. She felt very comfortable there when we had lunch and a tour there. The people that live there came up to her, they were talking to her, and they made her feel really comfortable. Also, she liked the room because it was larger. It had a huge closet and a very nice balcony that was very large. I've come to know a couple of the staff, and they're very nice and very helpful. They have a minimal number of activities though. They have s…
