About River Bend Senior Living

from Oasis Senior Advisors

River Bend Senior Living provides two primary levels of care—Assisted Living and Memory Care—to support residents who need help with daily tasks or specialized programming for cognitive loss. Assisted Living residents receive support with activities such as bathing, dressing, mobility, and medication reminders, while maintaining as much independence as possible. The Memory Care program is structured for people with Alzheimer’s disease or related dementias and incorporates secure areas, staff trained in dementia communication, and daily routines designed to reduce anxiety and confusion.

Beyond everyday support, the community offers a range of clinical services intended to manage changing health needs onsite. A licensed nurse oversees medication management, diabetes monitoring, and scheduled wellness checks. On-call podiatry, hospice coordination, and incontinence management are available, along with ambulatory assistance for residents who use mobility devices. Families who need temporary help can arrange respite or short-term stays, and the fully secured setting adds an extra layer of safety for residents at risk of wandering. The campus is designed specifically to accommodate memory loss, ensuring that medical and cognitive support are integrated around the clock.

Apartments come in multiple layouts, some with kitchenettes, balconies, or patios, while others feature wheelchair-accessible showers, handicap-friendly floor plans, or views of the deck and outdoor areas. Every unit is air-conditioned and wired for cable or satellite TV and high-speed internet, and common spaces include a central fireplace and piano. Parking is available for residents and guests. Because floor plans vary, not all accommodations include every listed feature, so prospective residents should confirm specific details during a tour.

Daily meals are prepared by a professional chef and served restaurant-style, with an all-day dining option for flexible scheduling. Menus include standard, vegetarian, low-sodium, and no-sugar selections, and guests can purchase meals when visiting. Hydration and snack stations remain open between scheduled dining times to support residents who prefer smaller, more frequent servings or need extra calories.

Residents have access to an activity center, indoor and outdoor walking paths, a library and computer lounge, and raised garden beds. The community schedules clubs, social outings, fitness classes, chair yoga, happy hours, live music, birthday celebrations, and intergenerational programs. Montessori-based and reminiscence activities foster engagement for Memory Care residents, and a swimming pool provides supervised aquatic exercise.

The rooms were described as clean, spacious, bright, and adequate, even if some found them small or lacking a stove. The food generally received good marks for being tasty and accommodating, with one reviewer noting their loved one finds things she likes despite being a picky eater.

However, there were concerns about staffing levels, with some reviewers feeling that the community was understaffed, leading to issues with cleanliness, attentiveness, and overall service.

Some reviewers expressed dissatisfaction with the variety and quality of meals, suggesting room for improvement.
