About Edencrest at Riverwoods

from Oasis Senior Advisors

Edencrest at Riverwoods offers three levels of residential support—Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care—allowing residents to transition between services without leaving the community. Independent Living residents manage their own schedules while having access to optional support; Assisted Living provides daily help with tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication reminders; and Memory Care delivers structure and supervision in spaces purpose-built for individuals living with dementia.

Additional clinical coverage includes respite or short-term stays, ongoing physician oversight, diabetes monitoring, and speech therapy. The secured community layout helps reduce wandering risks, and on-site professionals supply routine and specialized care encompassing nursing, incontinence management, ambulatory assistance, optometry, massage, dental services, hospice coordination, medication management, occupational and physical therapy, and podiatry. Suites and common areas are designed to accommodate memory loss, and 24-hour staff coverage supports timely response to health events.

Apartments are available in several floor plans, each with a kitchenette, air conditioning, and access to high-speed internet. Many units include wheelchair-accessible showers, cable or satellite television, and features such as grab bars and widened doorways for easier mobility; however, not every apartment contains every listed feature, so residents should verify specifics during a tour. Common areas include a centrally located fireplace, a piano or organ for resident use, outdoor seating areas, and convenient parking for residents and guests.

Dining services supply three daily meals prepared by a professional chef, with an open-door policy for guest meals. The culinary team can provide international cuisine and accommodates gluten-free, no-sugar, and low- or no-sodium diets. All-day dining lets residents choose mealtimes that match their routines, and rotating menus aim to balance nutritional needs with variety.

Residents have access to an activity center, organized clubs and community groups, a library and computer lounge, and scheduled reminiscence programs. Social events include happy hours, intergenerational visits, birthday celebrations, dances, live-music sessions, and off-site outings. Indoor and outdoor walking paths, raised garden beds, a fitness program, a swimming pool, and a jacuzzi promote physical health, while the community’s “allowed outdoors” policy supports unstructured time outside.
