The Fountains at RiverVue

Our initial experience at The Fountains was disappointing. The staff was unprepared to receive my mom, and her emergency bracelet failed to work throughout the entire week we were there. Despite my repeated alerts, it took three days to convince them to test it. Additionally, no staff responded when I pulled every emergency button in her apartment, as the bracelet clearly wasn’t functioning. I strongly recommend that families test their loved one’s emergency devices, regardless of assurances. One aide also made my mom’s bed while attempting to cover up an accident, ignoring the soaked mattress. This was unacceptable, especially considering the high cost we’re paying. The quality of nursing care varied significantly — some staff were excellent, but others provided subpar care. The first week was particularly distressing, and we had to escalate the situation with a call to the Executive Director, [name removed]. While she offered a sincere apology, progress in addressing the issues was slow. At upwards of [fee removed] per month, we expected much higher standards. While it’s better than previous facilities we have experienced - the level of care still fell short of expectations for many months. Communication was another challenge — staff rarely answered the phone, and assistance with coordinating outside appointments was minimal. It’s crucial to manage expectations, especially for out-of-town families, as they will likely be left to navigate many of these challenges alone. That's a BIG deal. On a positive note, The Fountains offers many onsite activities in a beautiful space, and has good dining options. The residents enjoy the food in a restaurant like atmosphere. Art classes. Movies and frequent religious services are available along with a great physical therapy team and area on the lobby floor. There is a reliable shuttle service for transportation.

OK at best

The Fountains has had a total renovation. The place look great. If your loved one is more independent The Fountains is a good place. If your loved ones requires assistance you may want to look elsewhere as there is not enough staff. On a good day you may find 3/4 caregivers for the entire building. On overnights there are 2 caregivers for the entire building. The weekends the staffing is less. There are daily activities but a lot of downtime without activities. The food is good and there is a nice variety offered.

Best I have ever seen

Everything is excellent, except the price is a bit high. The facility itself, the food, the staff, and the happy mood all impressed me - this is why we chose the Fountains at RiverVue. My sister is very happy to be there!

We never expected to have such a pleasant experience with an Assisted Living Facility

The entire facility is clean, as soon as you walk in you can tell. They keep us informed about everything that is going on with my mom. She is loving the food, which is amazing coming from the fact that she used to make her own pasta and sauce! I would recommend this facility to anyone that asks! We made the right choice for her. She is extremely happy and says she feels like she's dreaming!

My loved one is currently a resident at The Fountains at RiverVue in the Memory Care unit. I am really pleased with this facility and my loved one seems quite content. She is happier, cleaner and looks better. I was her caretaker and they are way better at it than me. The facility is not cheap, but it's worth it. All of her friends and her brother agree. The cleanliness and friendliness are great. The staff, care services and meals are also great. I would recommend The Fountains at RiverVue to others.

Tour Review

Our family had an in person tour with The Fountains at RiverVue and we thought it was a beautiful place, with beautiful surroundings, and just a gorgeous gorgeous community. The staff members were very very nice, they showed us all the different floors and different rooms - we did feel that the rooms were a little to small and we weren't sure with the level of care they provide here that it was going to be the right fit. Our loved one is more independent and the location was just a little to far. Our loved one is very much a city girl and this is more country .

The perfect place for mom

My mom is really happy here. Things are going very well. I'm very happy we chose this place. The staff is always nice and friendly. Mom says everyone is nice to her. Communication with the family is good. Mom likes the food, good quality and variety. It's expensive, but again we're very happy with our choice. It's close to home also, which is very helpful. I would recommend this facility to friends and family.

Tour of The Fountains

The Fountains at RiverVue is a lovely place. The staff were very nice and even followed up to see how he was doing, despite him choosing another community. The community was very close to our home, which is exactly what I was looking for. We chose another community because The Fountains was a bit upscale; I noticed that the male residents were all wearing slacks, which I thought wouldn't have been a good fit for my loved one because he's much more casual.

Good Place And I Would Recommend

It's a lovely community because the residents are fairly active and cognitively sharp. The dining can be improved. The food choices could be improved. The offer trips and activities. They offer exercise and bingo as well as other other options for activities. They do good with transportation for their residents. The staff are lovely and very helpful.

Probably the best move I've made for my mother

It's been an excellent experience. My mother loves the place, and I would highly recommend it. She loves the food. It's a great quality, and they give her plenty of it. If she wants more, they'll give you more. The staff is absolutely excellent. They're very attentive to my mother's needs. Overall there's not really anything they can improve on, other than restrictions on visiting due to Covid. But I don't blame them for that at all. That's just the situation we're in.

Think Twice

To all who are seeking a place for a loved one, please be cautious of this place. My grandmother had moved into this place several years ago after her husband passed away while still being semi independent. In the beginning, it was a second home to her, filled with countless activities, caring staff and management, and so on. Unfortunately, as time went on, and my grandmother was having much more trouble walking before transitioning to a wheel chair and constantly having to use the bathroom due to medical issues, the place changed. The facility kept tacking on extra care charges despite the fact my grandma had a private aid 12 hours a day. When trying to call the finance department to state that my family was paying privately for an aid for half the day, all we were left with was an argument, a cold nature from the woman who works in the finance department or at one point, no call backs because they could not be bothered doing their research. My grandmother had fallen, while an aid, who worked for the fountains (not private,) was in her apartment with her, resulting in three fractured ribs, stitches in her head, hip injury, a black eye, a bloody nose and being rushed to the ER. The aid in the room was the same aid my grandmother had asked management not to assist her due to the aids cold, rude and uncaring nature that had resulted in discrepancies in the past. To this day, my grandmother, facility staff and the aid all have different stories. How does a resident fall in their small apartment while an aid is present you may ask? We still ask to this day. On top of this, the facility nearly blamed my grandmother for the aid not doing her job properly. Not too long after this incident, my grandmother had to go to a rehab facility. The Fountains waited until the last possible second (3 days before she was to be released from rehab) to evaluate my grandmother to only say they would not take her back at the fountains. My grandmother was devastated. If you ask me, they did not take her back to cover their own behinds because of the incident that occurred with the aid in her room. The Fountains uprooted my grandmothers entire life due to not taking her back, and essentially left her without a place to live. On top of that, she was expected to pay for each day her belongings were still in her apartment. Imagine being held liable to pay an excessive amount of money when a facility essentially kicked you out of your home? Absolutely sickening. Please be Leary of this place before placing a loved one her. Please also do not trust the aid [name removed] with your loved one, as she is the aid responsible for my grandmas injuries due to carelessness. The staff and management are not what it used to be. They have no problem taking your money, but have problems with taking responsibility for the staff’s poor behaviors and correcting it.
