According to the 2020 Genworth Cost of Care Survey, the average fee for a semiprivate room in a Riverdale nursing home is $4,000 per month. This is around $500 more than average for Georgia, although $300 per month below the fee paid by the typical American senior.
Although Riverdale’s typical fee is above the state average, it’s not the most costly in the region. In Gainesville, seniors can expect to pay around $4,263 per month for services similar to their peers further south. However, there are more affordable cities too, such as Rome, at $3,088, and Athens, at $3,366.

Clayton County’s seniors benefit from various resources aimed at enhancing their quality of life and supporting them when they need it. The following examples show how seniors can get fresh meals delivered to their homes, help if in dispute with their care provider and information on a number of state and federal benefits.
Resource | Contact | Service |
---|---|---|
Clayton County Aging Program | (770) 603-4050 | The Clayton County Aging Program can assist Riverdale's seniors in several ways. For example, residents who cannot cook their own meals and don't have someone to help on a regular basis can have freshly prepared meals delivered to their homes five days a week. Utilizing the services of MLB Transportation, it can also arrange low-cost and free transportation. |
Frank Bailey Senior Center | (678) 479-5505 | The Frank Bailey Senior Center is the primary meeting place for Riverdale's older residents. It's a place where they can socialize, exercise and participate in a range of life-enhancing educational programs. There's also an indoor heated therapy pool and regular performances of plays and variety shows organized by the center's staff and members. Every morning and afternoon on weekdays, there's also the opportunity to have breakfast with friends in the center's cafeteria and lunch in its dining room. |
Georgia Department of Veterans Service | (404) 321-6111 | The Georgia Department of Veterans Service provides information, advice and support to those who served their country, their spouses and dependents. Most often, this involves helping them identify and claim for the local, state and federal benefits to which they're entitled. Additionally, it may also be able to help seniors in assisted living access the VA Aid and Attendance benefit, which can cover some of their monthly costs, and the Housebound Allowance for seniors still able to reside at home but in need of home care services. |

The ombudsman's services are free and typically include investigating complaints made by residents, their loved ones and third parties. At all times the ombudsman is an advocate for the senior. Additional services include supplying copies of inspection reports to seniors comparing assisted living communities in Clayton County for their long-term care needs. |
Riverdale-area assisted living communities must adhere to the comprehensive set of state laws and regulations that all assisted living communities in Georgia are required to follow. Visit our Assisted Living in Georgia page for more information about these laws.
