Disappointed in memory care
Facility is nice. Food is good. Aides are babysitters. No nursing. Activities director (not a nurse) is the best employee. If the patient needs help, they call for others. My husband fell in the bathroom 3 nights in a row; all 3 nights they called the fire department medics to ambulance him to the hospital. No injuries any event. When I said the level of care was not enough the LVN said they were doing the highest level. I gave notice that day.
I commented only on the Dementia Unit. The facility also has independent living and assisted living units which I understand are nice and well liked. I know it is known as "best in town".

Everyone is so friendly, and it feels like they are family to my mom. The communication is very good, and yes they are taking good care of my mom. I would recommend this community to other families.

Great Place to Live
I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. The community is short staffed, like a lot of places are nowadays. They have lots of activities for the residents to choose from.
My concern is with the accounting department. They don't understand that they have double billed in the past. They have also not been able to get their billing correct until recently, and they are not being helpful with resolving the situation.

Community Tour
I thought Rio Terra was outstanding as far as the facility and overall appearance. Of course based on a tour, I can't say what the actual living experience would be like.

Tour of Rio Terra
We had a nice tour with Rio Terra. We were looking for a place that focused only on memory care and we felt this facility would not meet my loved ones needs.

Rio Terra has been and continues to be an amazing opportunity for my mom to live in an atmosphere of wonderful residents and staff. She is content, busy and quite happy. I am so thankful to have found Rio Terra for her. The staff truly care about every single resident every single day.

Very nice facility, but very expensive
I toured here when looking for a place for my Mother-in-law. The building was very nice, but the care was very expensive. It looked like you got what you paid for, at least. The person that gave the tour was able to answer our questions and seemed knowledgeable about the facility. It ultimately didn't fit our budget or our needs. However, it’s probably a nice place to live if you can afford it.

Very responsive management
My Dad is happy living here. The management has been very responsive for us in regards to any issues we’ve had. The food is excellent, it’s very well balanced and nutritious and there are plenty of options to choose from. The facility is kept very clean and housekeeping comes by to clean Dad’s room weekly. There are so many activities to participate in, everything from movies to outings. I would recommend them.

Amazing
This community was unfortunately out of our price range. The person that took us on tour was friendly and knowledgeable. This community seemed to offer some nice amenities including a movie room and a game room. This community does allow pets. I would recommend taking a look at this community.

Not Impressed
I was not impressed with my tour of this community. I toured the memory care portion for my mother, and her needs. The lady I made the appointment with was not available. The person that gave me the tour didn't really seem to know what they were taking about. From the start it just left a bad taste in mouth.

It is like a close knit family
The staff try to help in every way they can. They have cottages behind the main building. It is a gated community and I feel safe. They keep the community clean. The food is good and they offer activities in the main building. I would recommend this community.

Fine Tour of This Community, but Wasn't The One for Us
This is a nice community, and our tour of it went well. The community looked good, and well maintained. The staff was nice, and friendly. Our questions were answered, and everything well. Unfortunately we did find a community that suited my mother in law needs better. Overall our tour went well of this community.

I would live at this community myself!!!!
When I have to call the community the front desk is always on top of things. The staff are accommodating and friendly. We have good communication. The food is great and they are always offering activities to my mom to help keep her active. This is a clean nice community.
