The reviews for River Glen Assisted Living present a mixed picture. Many reviewers praise the facility for its warm, home-like atmosphere, well-designed apartments, and a wide range of activities that keep residents engaged. The staff, including Claudine, Jena, and John-Michael, are frequently highlighted for their professionalism, friendliness, and genuine care for residents, making them feel like family. The facility is described as clean, with excellent therapy services and a strong sense of community. Several reviewers mention the positive impact on their loved ones' well-being, noting improvements in social engagement and overall happiness. However, there are significant concerns about recent changes in ownership. Many reviewers express outrage over substantial rent increases, with some claiming a 364% hike, which has forced many residents to leave. The new management, Jaybird Senior Living, is criticized for prioritizing profit over resident care, leading to accusations of greed and unethical behavior. This shift has overshadowed the facility's previously positive reputation, causing distress among residents and their families. Overall, while River Glen is praised for its caring staff and supportive environment, the recent ownership changes and associated financial implications have led to dissatisfaction and distrust among some residents and their families.

River Glen is everything and more than one should expect from a senior assisted living facility. Unlike the new modern institutional like facilities that exist only for the money not the welfare of the senior, River Glen cares about each individual. It's smaller, and home like atmosphere and staff along with an individual plan creates a better environment for the senior. I brought a senior brother from a large, assisted living facility in Colorado to River Glen and the difference in individual care was like night and day. The staff understood the needs of my brother from day one. With a smooth transition from admissions to a set program and professional staff of OT and PT made my brother feel that the staff really cares about his welfare. I would highly recommend River Glen to anyone needing a caring assisted living facility not an institution.
