My review of The Rivers
reviewed on: 01/14/2021 by anonymousWe chose The Rivers because of the availability at the time. The room sizes at the facility are adequate for an assisted living place. The meals here are off a menu that residents are able to choose from. I would probably recommend for others who are looking.
Great People
reviewed on: 11/25/2015 by AnonymousEveryone at The Rivers is very nice and very sociable. All of the staff members and residents are just great people to work with and to have dealings with. They do seem to be a little bit understaffed however.
Stay vigilant. Much slips through the cracks if you're not attentive.
reviewed on: 01/04/2018 by AnonymousSince my Mother has moved in here, it has been a little bit of a bumpy experience. It is a nice facility and it is always clean. The food seems to be good and they have a vendor who caters all of it. Also, all of the residents who I’ve seen so far are very friendly. However, there are a few things concerning me about this facility. They seem to be understaffed and I feel like they are not as efficient as they could be. My mom has a few medical complications and the facility brings in Nurses, doctors, and therapists to help her. Unfortunately, the staff is not prepared to work with these people. My Mother needs her legs wrapped and they are somewhat lackadaisical and have missed a few days of wrapping her legs. It also seems that holidays and weekends are worse when it comes to personal care. I’m concerned about the training of the staff and when I try to talk to someone about it they may or may not get back to me. I would recommend this facility with a lot of caution.
Great Tour!
reviewed on: 12/19/2016 by AnonymousMy tour of The Rivers went well, but the place was expensive and an advanced level of care for what my mother needs. There were people just sitting around and were not as social as the community we chose. It was a nice place but just not what we were looking for.
Lovely Place!!
reviewed on: 05/08/2017 by AnonymousI have no complaints about the experience my parents are having at this community. They are absolutely loving it and it is actually hard to get a hold of them because they are never home. They have made a lot of great friends and are constantly participating in many of the events and activities they have going on throughout the week. The staff are outstanding and have been amazing to them. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.
