A nice community with room for improvements
The biggest negative I have is they were supposed to take the monthly cost out on the first of each month, and they never did. For elderly folks on a fixed budget this was unacceptable, we tried reaching out several times and the executive director, never returned our calls. When we toured the facility we were given one cost, and when we signed the contracts the cost had jumped [fee removed]. I asked for a copy of the assessment for level of care for my father and never received it. My dad enjoyed his time there. From a patient care perspective I would recommend it. From a cost and financial perspective I wouldn't

River Ridge Review
The director was the only positive, but she was busy in her office. The price changed within 2 days from my telephone conversation and signed documents until arrival two days later. It was their mistake. A previous employee quoted me an amount, I signed, then they tried to say he was wrong. Long story. Director corrected it, but billing could not get it right for 2 months. We ended up leaving. Gave notice within 30 days and never got deposit back as was stated we would in contract. The director was new, the staff was new, the office/billing were old. No communication between the two. Very frustrating to deal with.

Hello, Thank you for your feedback. We always make it a point to explain the nonrefundable, one-time community fee during the lease signing, which is common in the senior living arena. We would like to connect with you directly to address your concerns appropriately and clear up any confusion, but since your review is anonymous, we can’t reach out. Please call our community directly and ask to speak with our Executive Director. Thank you.

I was able to tour both the assisted living and independent living facilities. I was impressed at the number of activities and personal help in other buildings. It also is admirable that those in independent living could participate in special programs at the other building.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Michigan regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Michigan regulations for Assisted Living.
