A Couple Improvements Needed
reviewed on: 12/11/2015 by AnonymousMy loved one did not have cable for a whole month, and then when he came in we found out the cable wasn't even pulled. Also we put her in there because she was going to have a roommate so she wouldn't be lonely, but that has not happened yet.

Welcoming Community
reviewed on: 07/26/2017 by AnonymousBrookdale Riverside is a beautiful and welcoming community. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We choose Brookdale Riverside because it was more affordable and their fees were more specific about what they actually charged for. The communication is great between the family and the staff. My father -in-law seems to be acclimating to the move. When he first arrived he really liked the food, now not so much. I think he is bored with the food. There are snacks and refreshments available for the residents between meals. They do offer activities, but my father-in-law is not the type who is inclined to participate in activities. They are in transition of getting a new activities director so maybe that will help to get him inspired to try out something new. Shopping trips are available for the residents, my father-in-law has utilized the bus to Dr. appointments and the bus driver is great. We feel very good about the choice that we made.
2/13: Yahoo ... I believe this is it...
reviewed on: 03/01/2013 by A Place For Mom Customer2/13: Yahoo ... I believe this is it. Put $500 down to hold a room (refundable). About 15-20 minute drive. The facility and management team were nice, and the cost right in our budget. In a nice neighborhood. Mom will not be able to smoke in the room or on the patio/balcony; they have smoking available in the courtyard. There is a pond with ducks and fish; they have live fishing in the summer with a fish [removed] The studio is small but suitable; and we can upgrade to the deluxe if she wants a larger room. She can bring pics/figurines to put on walls. Personal and linen are laundered once a week; individual rooms and not with other residents so don't have to worry about clothes getting mixed up; or she can use free non-coin op machines to wash her own. Room is located on 2nd floor, next to exit; around the corner from the elevator ... hall is shorter (less walking) and close to office/diner/activities when she gets off the elevator. Rental increases are 3%-6%; did not see one in January (adjust budget for increase in 2014).
My Mom Loves it here
reviewed on: 10/12/2017 by AnonymousWe toured a few places and my mom really felt a peace and comfortable here at Brookdale Riverside when she walked into her room and knew this was a right fit. The food is great and she does have a small fridge to have her own snacks. They have a bus that takes them to church and that is important to her. They maintain the garden area very well and it stays clean inside too. She has a beauty salon in the community that she takes advantage of. Then most important also it was close to me so I can visit frequently.
