Atria Riverdale

Our first impression was on the tour and the person who gave the tour was very open, and friendly and very professional showing us everything they had to offer. They were also very accommodating to us because we had to come back twice. During the tour we were able to eat lunch at in cafeteria and we have a variety of options to choose from and it was delicious. We love this community, the people who work there are amazing, very professional and really seem to care. The residents who live there are also very lovely. This community is very clean. We absolutely feel we are getting our money's worth. The activities are great, they sometimes take the residents to the museum or the theater.

This community has gone through management changes, and at first it was great and we heard the activities director was great, but they ended up leaving. Once they left the activities really dwindled. They advertised to us very clearly that the memory care unit was very separate from every thing else. this is typically a very clean appearing facility. The basic everyday cleaning was absolutely fine, but once COVID started the infection control was not consistent, and there were times the staff were not wearing masks, and our loved one actually got COVID. My mother is Jewish but does not keep kosher, she is severely under weight and sometimes has been told they cant accommodate to her wish for dairy during her meal in which meat as been served due to kosher laws.

Very impressed with this facility. All the residents were well taken care and dressed. We had the opportunity to watch them doing an exercise class. The environment was clean, comfortable and well appointed. The staff was very kind and helpful. We met with [name removed], their Executive Director and she will be coming on Saturday to meet my husband and to do an evaluation.
