My grandfather lived here as a resident and thrived in this home. He had back surgery and needed to go for some therapy, they got him better than he was before he even had the surgery. He was able to come back home, but unfortunately had to have another surgery a couple years later. But he wanted to go back to Riverview because he liked it so much, everyone there was so good to him and we really appreciated everything they did for him. Our family is so grateful and will definitely refer anyone we know there.

I want to thank everyone at Riverview Healthcare Center for taking Great care of my dad. He said their wasn’t one person there he didn’t like. He enjoyed talking to you all and said he loves all of you. If you spent any time at all with him you know he was telling the truth. His heart goes out of rhythm but stays full of love.

I could never thank Riverview Healthcare enough for getting my grandmother back up on her feet and back home. The therapy department worked very hard to make sure she had a successful rehab to home stay at their facility. On top of the wonderful therapy she received while she was there, the rest of the staff treated her just like she was part of their family. I highly recommend Riverview Healthcare and will most definitely be using them again if the need arises!
