Assisted Living Communities in Moscow, ID

"I couldn't be more pleased with Riverview Residential Home & Care. They are a 5 out of 5 stars so far, on every single thing. My father-in-law has only been there a couple of weeks and I can't even say enough good things about them. He loves the country and the great outdoors, and this place has a view of the river and the golf course. He's not looking at a busy street and he can sit out on the deck. When we toured the home, the caregivers immediately talked directly to him and made him feel at home. It was the people, the view, and the care that he needs that were important to us, but the people taking care of him would truly treat him as somebody that they would care for and love. So far, the food must be really good because he doesn't complain. The other day they made him his favorite meal, a chicken fried steak, in which he saved some leftovers for breakfast, so I'm thinking that must mean it's pretty good. The only thing he has complained about is they won't let him have sausage and bacon every single morning. He can't have that with his heart condition, but since he was living on his own, he did whatever he wanted, up until now. That's his biggest complaint so far. The dining area was a big family table. They have six residents and they all sit there together and I think he eats better in that kind of environment instead of all by himself. They're doing some gardening out on the deck too. He's going to plant his tomato plants that he wants and a cucumber plant. I know they have other extended activities but that has not been a huge priority for us. Mostly I needed him to have interaction. His room is of average size and they have allowed him to do absolutely anything he wants there. They have alarms in his bedroom, so when he doesn't let anybody know that he's getting up, they know. The staff is, again, phenomenal. They really are. They have a mix of both men and women, which is a great change for him. He needed that because he had very, very little interaction before. The transition was not easy for him, but everybody was very patient and really worked with him to try to make him comfortable and happy, every single one of them. They are also now in the process of doing some updating, which is going to make the place even more beautiful, so that's going to be awesome, too. It's the best money he's ever spent and we're very comfortable knowing he's safe and happy."

"Great room in the newer section of the building. The whole building was remodeled during their expansion project and they had several different styles to pick from. Kitchens are ample size and a full refrigerator, but my father never uses as they have outstanding meals. Staff have been outstanding and he enjoys his interaction with them. The whole process of moving in was smooth. Great benefit to money spent. Recommend to anyone looking."

"The rooms are huge and very clean. They have been upgrading this facility on a regular basis. The staff are some of the most loving and kind people we have ever met. During the pandemic everyone from the Administrator, all nurses and all staff worked endless days and hours to make sure everyone received the love and care they deserved. My family was updated regularly with status. It was explained that during the pandemic they could not have large group activities but the activities people and the rest of the staff visited every resident several times a day to help keep away depression. My mom had an upbeat attitude every time I called her. I am so thankful that we chose this facility. Heroes definitely work at Wedgewood Terrace. "

"My mother moved into Royal Plaza Retirement & Rehab Center, and it's been a very good experience. They take care of her, and anything you want, they try to get. I've eaten there a few times, you hear complaints, and you hear how good it is, but when I ate there it was OK. It was very nice, quiet, clean, the people were friendly, and when she first moved in two or three of the people who lived there got a hold of her and asked, " Is there anything I can do? We want to be your friend." Yes, it's very good."

"Avalon Progressive Care is very nice, clean, and has wide aisles. They have a nice dining room and a living room. It's very nice for the patients there. The staff is wonderful and just fabulous, there are nice people who care about my mother, and they provide good care. The food is fantastic and wonderful. One of the best parts about it is they do home cooked, nutritious, and tasty meals."

"My mom is in Golden Girls Residential Care. Primarily, we chose it for its location. Plus, they could take care of all levels of care. They got high recommendations from the people who live there, too. It's clean, homey, and has a good vibe. The staff over there are very professional and very compassionate. There are a lot of registered nurses and CNAs present quite often. The food is nutritious and diverse. They have a lot of different recipes they use so I don't think it's going to get boring. It's homemade food, too. It's just a very small home, like a community house. I visited and called quite a few different places and out of all of them, this is the one that stood out."

"I visited Life Care Center in Lewiston, Idaho in 2010. Both my grandmother and one of her close lifelong friends were patients there. While visiting this facility I saw a wide variety of both quality professional conduct and conduct boering upon abuse. My grandmother was admitted for a short-term stay for rehabilitation only, she reported to me that the nurses were condescending towards her and she felt very insulted. I personally witnessed her friend being mistreated by a certified nursing assistant, who wrongly claimed to be a nurse when she was not. Most staff, including the physical therapists were very professional in conduct and treated my grandmother with respect. Some nurses were also extremely professional, while others were unprofessional and rude. I would not like to see any of my family members to ever be patients in this facility again. My recommendation to anyone with family members in this facility is to visit often and keep an eye on how your relative is doing, ask them how they are being treated and listen to what they have to say. Watch for bruises and a change in behavior. "

"The people at this facility genuinely care about the residents. It is a smaller home, I would say averaging six residents. Joyce and her help not only take care of their residents physically, they also treat them as actual humans, not just some number. They provide transport to and from personal and professional obligations. For example my aunt needed to visit with her insurance agent and no family was available to take her, so Joyce transported her all the way to the agent's office and back. They also schedule trips to community events, stores and even the local farmers market. The employees make sure to tell me if there in anything my aunt needs or anything that they have noticed which is out of the ordinary and may need to be addressed. The atmosphere of this is that of a family. Holidays and life events are celebrated with the residents and outside friends and family are always made welcome. The facility is clean and well maintained. The residents have the choice of just a single or a double-occupancy room depending upong what their needs and desires are. It is Joyce's which has allowed my aunt to thrive instead of just mark time in these latter years of her life. "
