Medicare shows an abuse citation on record. Read the linked source details, ask the administrator what corrective action was taken, and independently verify the facility’s current status before deciding.
Riverdale Post Acute receives highly polarized reviews, with recent feedback highlighting a significant divide between those who praise the compassionate, attentive nursing staff and those who report severe neglect and poor facility conditions. While some families feel their loved ones are well-cared for, others describe distressing experiences involving hygiene issues, unresponsive communication, and a lack of basic maintenance. Prospective families should conduct an in-person tour to assess current cleanliness and staffing responsiveness, as experiences appear to vary drastically.
