These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 74% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Riveridge Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center receives highly polarized feedback, with recent reviews highlighting significant concerns regarding medical oversight, communication, and facility hygiene. While some families praise the kindness of the nursing staff and the facility's holiday events, others report serious incidents of neglect, including unmanaged health crises and poor responsiveness to basic care needs.

Key Review Excerpts
“The building itself may be older, but the staff are so kind & friendly. This facility always seems to have fun holidays planned for the residents and staff.”
“My Mother spent exactly one week at this facility. By the seventh day we had her taken to the ER for a blood sugar of 528. Apparently this was going on for days and she ended up with ketoacidoses.”
“All you smell is Urine. The dementia patients are left in the front room by themselves with no supervision.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

Original nursing home datasets
EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
These are the 6 closest facilities in our data within 10 miles. Proximity does not mean they provide the same care type or have stronger quality signals, so compare each profile and verify services directly.
