Be wary of the nice decor......this doesn't ensure your loved ones are receiving the housekeeping etc they are being charged for! Also be careful not to take units with carpetingMy mother recently was placed in a nursing home after living in Riverridge for 5 years they have the audacity to charge her for replacing the carpets after we paid a professional cleaning company $1300 to clean a one bedroom unit. See pictures taken after move out! She was charged for housekeeping and I regularly had to change sheets clean bathroom and empty decaying food from fridge and cupboards A lot of staff turnover as well Again don't just look at decor.....look into quality of services!

This is physically a beautiful facility. However, there are issues with how services are provided. Apartment cleaning is superficial. The food quality has been declining over time. There has been some movement of staff to their new building, River Ridge II which has resulted in changes in the culture at River Ridge I.

This place is the best of the best in assisted living. That's what they sell you on. When she lives here the reality is somewhat different. They show you that they have a wonderful theater where you can enjoy movies. What they don't tell you is that they have to leave the doors open on the theater so that like from the outside washes over the screen diminishing the enjoyment of the movie. They tell you that they have excellent food. What they don't tell you is that the food is so inconsistent that you have no idea what they're going to bring to your table. If they bring anything at all. It is normal to sit and wait for 40 or 50 minutes before anybody comes to your table to ask you what you want to eat. You are told that you will get housekeeping and that they will vacuum your carpet clean your bedrooms and you bathrooms. What really happens is that they spend about 17 minutes in your apartment because they are so rushed with the amount of work that they have to do. The waitresses in the restaurant also have to clean your apartment. They then have to wait on you for your next meal and clean up after that meal before the end of their shift. They pay the hardest workers in the organization minimum wage and force them to work huge amounts. The poor women that do this work do it as best they possibly can. And are under constant pressure to do it faster and better with no renumeration Improvement. This is a disgusting corporate company that puts their guests and their employees second and their profits first.

The facility is clean and well maintained. The dining room is sunny and bright. The food is good quality. The staff are very friendly, helpful and patient with the residents. The apartments are a nice size, and security is good.
