If you want infections,muscle waisting ,lied too by staff on the condition your loved one is in ,malnutrition, weight drops down to 100 pounds , and being held hostage then this is the retreat for you ..then get 120,000 in bills because they maxed out 3 insurance carriers , then definitely I recommend this place 🤔🤨 if you want gaslighting staff then this is the recovery for you. If you want 1 doctor who never sees you and is the doctor for 3 half 3 counties and over prescribes dangerous combinations then this is the exact place you will want to go. Because it may be your last stop on this earth .... God Bless the people involved in such disregard for human life. And the people who are affected by there daily actions or lack there of ......

First off, the only reasons I am not giving five stars is a) the facility is way overdue for a remodel, however it is clean, and b) the doctor(s) have pretty terrible bedside manner. That being said, I can overlook these because the staff is amazing. Also, from what I’ve learned after 3 hospitals for my mother in 3 months (and 2 hospitals a year ago), the doctor takes all the staffs input and basically spends 2-5 mins a day with the patient (do not like this but it is our medical system). So ultimately, the staff are the people caring for my mother, not necessarily the doctor. I’ve seen a ton of language barriers, impossible communication, and just an all around lack of care elsewhere, and I see none of this here. My mother has an impossible prognosis, and the staff is aware of this, but are still giving everything they can to help her recover (from an induced coma and being bedridden) and making her life as pleasant as it can be until she makes her final descent. I’ve also learned family involvement is key to anyone recovering, so give them (your loved one and the staff) the support/input they need

If you or a family member are looking for a skilled nursing facility, I would definitely recommend River Bend Nursing Center. I was a resident at River Bend for about 15 months. The staff is always very helpful, and there are many hard-working healthcare workers who are responsive, compassionate and caring. I wish I had the space here to thank each one of them personally. I would like to acknowledge Nurse Henry who took such good care of me when I first got to River Bend and who was so great about keeping my family informed about how I was doing. Linda the speech therapist and Darwin the physical therapist both helped me so much with my physical recovery. Having been a resident there for over a year, River Bend came to feel like home. I recovered so well that I was recently discharged. I greatly appreciate all that everyone did to help me during my stay at River Bend. I really can't thank them enough. Sincerely, Jerry Rinard
