My dad had been a resident in the memory care unit at Truewood for the last 14 months. He had been at a previous facility that was a nightmare. The moment we first visited Truewood, we knew this would be a wonderful experience for us & my father. From the nurses, caregivers & administration, they have looked after every need my father has needed. We are always informed of any changes (medical & other) that arise & communication with the family is A+. We cannot express enough how much we appreciate the care of my father. It sure makes life easier knowing he is cared for & this gives me peace of mind.<br><br>B. Young

My mother has been in memory care at Truewood (Riverchase) for nearly 4 years. The RNs(Lisa,Karen,Leigha) for this community are the best. The activities director is a gem. Support staff are helpful and kind to the residents.

The covered entrance to the front entrance is roped off. They should make repairs and reopen.
