My 94 year old mother has been at River Garden for a year and a half. I’m am so grateful and thankful that she is there . It has so many caring staff and the facilities are kept very clean. She lived with me for 8 years and had to transition after falling and breaking her hip. I would not want her anywhere else . I would highly recommend to any family looking for a facility .

We are thankful for the care our Mother received from The River Garden Hebrew Home Skilled Nursing Section. We treasure those days and appreciate River Gardens guidance during what could have been difficult times. We were given a wonderful gift of peace. The Coffin family.

Hello Everyone, Please accept my thanks to everyone who supported the care and well-being of my dear mother, Ms. Clara Brown. I want to recognize everyone from the receptionist, who greeted our family each day, to the security guard, for his time in keeping her and the many guests safe and providing direction. Thank you to the numerous nurses who gave extra attention to her care and well-being, the CNAs, the doctors who addressed my mother’s health concerns, and otherwise made her smile despite the circumstances. Please know that we extend our heartfelt thanks. My family and I are truly impressed by your thoroughness and kindness. I would be remiss if I overlooked the nutritionist who prepared strength-building meals for our mom. Thank you as well to the environmental specialist; all our concerns were resolved as soon as we entered the facility. Many thanks for leading the way forward in ensuring my mom was cared for in the most accommodating manner possible.
