My mother was a Riverdale for six months. Let me say COVID is not an excuse to lock down the facility indefinitely. For Mother’s Day my daughter and I brought cheese to share in the visiting space. We were told after 5 minutes we had to move because we could not be supervised. Yet, the space that was set aside for visitors. Even my mother says this was the worst place she has lived. She says the food is “recycled.” I asked for menus four times and never got one. Riverdale had a COVID outbreak in June and did not tell me. I found out after I arrived to take my mother out for an appointment. During move out, everything was disorganized even after calling and confirming. The nurses provided medication and did their jobs as far as I know. The weekend nurses and staff are the best. New management is trying harder but have a ways to go.
