Continuing Care Retirement Communities Communities in Spokane, WA

"We visited Riverview and this place is more affordable than the other place that I've seen. You can have independent living up until you need fulltime care. The staff were very accommodating. The people that we talked to seemed very pleased with the facility. "

"Rockwood Retirement Community was very nice. They were excellent. I highly recommend them. It was a lovely place for a senior. They had a beautiful dining room. They had lovely apartments in the main building, and they also had separate houses. It was probably one of the nicest retirement communities. "

"I liked the attitude of the nurses and the manager/director in Rockwood. I liked the one hall with only 20 bed units, and it’s big enough to move her furniture in there, which would help. It was very adequate, and everybody’s got their own windows that look out into a nice, landscaped area. It smelled clean. They’ve got activities. You could go on the bus from Rockwood or drive. It is approximately a quarter of a mile from where my mom lived for 50 years. "

"I like Fairwood Retirement Village & Assisted Living, although it is an older facility. When people move out, they would remodel the room, and I looked at a couple of them. I liked the way the ground floor apartments were set up. A lot of them have little outdoor patios and those types of things where you can let your dog right off the patio and right out into the center grass area. I like that way better than the idea of a dog park. However, you got to buy in for the one bedroom, and I did not want to go for that at all. You get 75% of it back if you leave, but if you do not leave or if you die there, you do not get anything. You gotta put $106,000 right upfront. If you want to get a bigger place, you have to put up even more cash money. The facility is fine, just not particularly the way they do business. The lady was very nice too. They have an activities board posted outside of their office where it says they do cards and all that sort of things."

"The setting at Good Samaritan Society - Spokane Valley is really nice. I just dropped by and did not make an appointment but the gal who assisted me was really nice. It just appeared that they were understaffed. "
