Riverside Inn at Fossil Creek has been good to my father. Everything seems OK. The staff is very friendly and they all know him. I don't have any complaint as of yet. His room is a little small, but they try to keep them out of their rooms as much as possible. They're trying to get him into a routine that will help him memory wise. The care is good, the people are all nice and kind, and the food looks good. They have a dining area, recreation area, and a courtyard. It's a little bit pricey, but you get what you pay for.

My mom really likes Riverside Inn and she loves her room. The food is very good and my mom likes that they have many activities. They have very good staff and they're very patient with them. I've been very pleased. The nurses are very attentive, which is very nice, and we've been very happy with them. I have nothing to complain about and the facility is beautiful. The price is reasonable and really good for what they offer.

Riverside Inn at Fossil Creek was a beautiful facility, but the people working there were all sitting at the front desk. I didn’t see any people working with the patients the two times I was there; they were all elsewhere. For the price and the beautiful facility, I would have liked to have had the care that goes with it from the staff. Their facilities were all beautiful, but I was not impressed both times with what I saw as to the people that worked there. It’s on a busy street, and they do have an inside courtyard, but everything else is just traffic.

Irene, thank you for taking a moment and writing a review for Riverside Inn @ Fossil Creek Memory Care Community. We couldn’t agree more with the beauty of the community and glad that you were able to tour multiple times. I am sorry we were not able to fully provide you an example of the care we offer our residents. Our number one goal is the exceptional care that they provide and you not being able to witness that is an area of opportunity for our teams. Our interior courtyard is amazing and features a fountain and classic automobile. Our door is always open for any future tours or questions.

I visited this facility
I visited Riverside. It’s a very beautiful facility but more expensive than where my mother is now. I was trying to balance the need for my mother’s companion that she’s had for about five years who helps her even though she’s in a facility. This lady takes her out and sits with her like a companion. I didn’t want to have to let her go, so financially I was trying to keep her because my mom has bonded with her and she does very well with her. So, Riverside was very good. I would highly recommend Riverside from what I saw. The rooms were very nice, very pretty, and relatively new. If you don’t have your own furniture or didn’t have stuff to put there, they have furnished rooms with a bed and a night stand. The way they decorate it was very pretty, and set up to resemble an era that most of the people there would remember stuff from that time. They seemed very nice, and I think they have a nurse on staff 24/7. Just from what I saw and the way I saw the residents and the employees interact, I think it’s a very nice place.

I visited Riverside Inn. It was very clean and nice, and they had a lot of activities. They had a courtyard outside, and they were actually decorating a Christmas tree in the courtyard when I was there. They serve three meals a day, and, I believe, two snacks. For diabetics, they have an extra snack per day in the evening. They were able to answer all of my questions.

The staff at Riverside Inn at Fossil Creek are very helpful. A little high price, but stlill very helpful. Everyone there is trained in Alzheimer's and dementia so that makes it a lot nicer. Nobody can get out unless somebody lets them out. All the doors are locked. Their food is excellent. They have trips and they do activities. Hairdressers come in as well as foot massages.

Support Groups
Living, loving and caring for a family member with Alzheimer’s, Dementia or other forms of memory loss is a unique challenge. We need the support of those who not only understand what we are experiencing, but can be a strong support through the journey. At Riverside Inn, our support groups offer family and friends the opportunity to meet and talk in a private and mutually supportive atmosphere. Often solutions come from others who are on the same journey at a different point in time. This community of care provides emotional support and continuing education. To ease your schedule, hourly care is provided for your loved one during your support group visit to our community. Please contact us to find out about support groups meeting at Riverside Inn.
Living Well
Our Personal Touch Care Program is a holistic approach aimed at maintaining residents' well being and self-worth. It is a program that encompasses all aspects of our resident care.
While many think of "Activities" as pre-planned group events, such as exercise, crafts and music events where almost everyone participates, we think of "Activity" as everything the resident does throughout the day, whether planned or spontaneous. This includes our residents’ personal care, conversations with others and even time alone.
We spend a great deal of time assisting residents with personal care and the daily routines can become more meaningful when we are making sure we are using sensitivity and creativity to create the special Personal Care Moment.
What Makes Us Special
We have 24/7 licensed nursing care at our community. We have motion detector lights in each room, we have a dedicated activities director, and we offer activities from 9 a.m. to 7:30 p.m daily.
