A Family's experience

Great overall experience. his wasn't easy for my parents but [name removed] with the facility made them feel welcomed and included from day 1. It was a great choice for our whole family and we are so grateful to have chosen Rittenhouse in Portage. My parents were in an apartment for several months (they have since moved into one of their Independent homes) but the cleanliness are five star. The friendliness of staff is above and beyond. They went out of their way to make -not only my parents but everyone feel at home. We had a couple of bookkeeping issues but everyone was always willing to help. Meals and dining were mehhhhh. My parents weren't big fans of their dining experience. It was fine when they needed that option, it would be a hard sell to have them go back. Activities look fabulous! My parents aren't very social so it might take some arm twisting to get them to participate but when they do they have a great time. I'm trying to convince them to be more open to participating even more Definitely great value for the cost. We haven't had the need for many of the full time services they offer yet but for what we have used it has been worth every penny. 2 years now and we wouldn't change a thing.

Everyday

I cannot say enough good things about Rittenhouse of Portage. The staff is exceptionally kind, caring, and professional, always going above and beyond to ensure the residents feel comfortable and valued. The facility is spotless, well-maintained, and has a warm, welcoming atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at home. The activities and programs offered are engaging and tailored to meet the needs of the residents, creating a vibrant and fulfilling community. Communication with families is outstanding; I always feel informed and reassured about my loved one’s care. Thank you, Rittenhouse team, for your dedication and compassion—you make a difference every day!

Great Care with Great Staff

I have been working at Rittenhouse for over 10 years. This by far is the best place for care and fun. The staff is passionate, friendly, and very helpful. I would recommend this facility to anyone needing socialization, care, and just an overall peace of mind.

pros and cons

The facility is overall a good value. The care can be a little suspect if your family member needs that extra layer of care and attention. There were many,many instances where grannie had pressed the button on her life alert device and no one came. I was hesitant to believe that until I witnessed it multiple times. The staff overall is wonderful, it's only a few in positions that are tough to keep filled that were the issue.. My grandma actually passed away earlier this year, but I would consider Rittenhouse for myself if my health wasn't too bad. For the money it's a good place and I'm still so thankful for your help!

Rittenhouse Village at Portage review

Our experience is The staff are very friendly when we're there and mom likes most of them. Our experience has been that. Sometimes the care is better than other times. We strongly recommend moms dentures be washed properly and poly grip be used as needed. Moms nails are always filthy I would think that would be part of bathing her twice a week. We would like her hands to be wash after meals because she has to eat with her hands. We recommend better communication between shift staff and keeping good nurses. Our observations when the is that Mom seems to need more help eating some foods. Hopefully they help her when we're not there. We'd like to see mom taken outside on every nice day. We have never seen them outside when we visit. Would like to see weekly nail care like was explained to us when she first went there. Our experience is This facility was the more affordable option.

A Good Decision

The friendliness of the staff and the many activities for the residents are strong point of the facility. The variety of the menu is good. The cost is a little high when there is memory care involved. Overall I am happy my mom is there.

Review for Rittenhouse Village At Portage

We are extremely happy here. Rittenhouse is covert friendly. All staff go above and beyond for each resident. The apartments are spacious and very nice. There are lots of activities daily both at the facility and field trips. Rittenhouse is more affordable than most of the other facilities and offer a lot more. My mom has made a lot of friends here. They are like a big family. I highly recommend Rittenhouse in Portage. I moved my mom from another facility that did a lot less and cost a lot more. The activities director is the best! She gives all she has to make sure everyone is happy and can be involved.

home away from home

MY dad lived at Rittenhouse in Portage for two years. It was a wonderful experience. Everyone (directors, kitchen staff, front desk, nurses, maintenance, aides, and cleaning staff) was kind, friendly and helpful. There was always some activity going on, as well as trips to local restaurants and fun destinations. They even had a "senior prom". My dad truly enjoyed his last two years at Rittenhouse.

Love Rittenhouse

Since I've moved in, I have only had dealings with maintenance. They have been helpful and when I needed help, they were there. I haven't experienced the meals and dining in the main building or the activities yet. I have a villa, so I pay for my own cleaning service.

Great staff, and great place to live if you are a senior.

The staff have been very nice and professional. I would think if someone could afford the cost, why not Rittenhouse Village.

My Review

Rittenhouse Village is a nice place. The facility is nice. The staff is pretty friendly. My loved one likes it really well. They have quite a few activities if you choose to participate. I had some issues with lack of communication initially, but I think that's been straightened out.
