We recognize the importance of treating the whole person – not just treating a medical issue
Traditional Long-Term Care
River Garden serves people with ongoing care needs in a gracious residential setting. Each resident is offered a continuum of choices, from the privacy of one’s own room to full public spaces encouraging the mingling of residents, families and visitors. The out-of-doors is easily visible and accessible. This environment supports sophisticated clinical services, but is characterized by its residential nature.
Quality of life is our priority. The care team not only focuses on medical care but on levels of participation, as well as the cultural and traditional values of our residents. We regularly critique the effectiveness and quality of activities offered in order to develop and facilitate programs based on the cognitive and physical level of residents. Recognizing the importance of treating the whole person, that physical, emotional, mental and spiritual needs must be met, we also have on-campus chaplaincy services available to all residents, family members and staff.
