Our loved one's Experience in new home.

My husband is happy there. They are going above and beyond for his care. They do not have all the amenities of other facilities, but the staff is doing the best with what they have and that counts for more than astechics. We are glad we came.

Our experience has been positive.

The food is good. The room is nice, but cleaning the floors and room took a while to get on schedule. The care is very good. Communication on specific procedures (i.e., transportation, doctor’s visits, etc.) could be better. Overall, a good place for our mom.

River Ridge Review

Management team was very good. Facilities were comfortable and attractive. Entertainment programs were good. Food was often over seasoned and many choices were unhealthy. Overall: it provided what we needed at the time, respite care.
