The Esther at Riverbend Assisted Living

We cannot say enough great things about The Esther and their staff. The Caregivers were amazing while taking care of our Mom. They made sure she was comfortable and we had anything that we needed. Everyone was very compassionate and caring. Everyone made sure we had meals, water, coffee, etc. whatever we needed. They made us feel like family. Thank you from our family for taking such great care of Mom.

When we first began the search for an assisted living community, our biggest hope was to find a place where Mom wouldn’t just “get by” but where she could truly thrive. Choosing Esther at Riverbend has been the best decision our family could have made. From the moment she arrived, we noticed a positive change. The warm, caring team welcomed her as if she were family, and the atmosphere felt alive with purpose. What really stands out is that Mom isn’t just surviving day to day anymore she is flourishing. She’s more engaged, more active, and most importantly, she’s happy again. One of the things that gives our family incredible peace of mind is the new Go Icon feature. It allows us to know when she’s joining in on activities, and it reassures us that she’s not spending her days isolated. Instead, she’s out there playing games, attending social gatherings, and laughing with friends. We can actually see that she’s socializing and enjoying her time, which has made such a difference in her overall outlook. Seeing Mom thriving making connections, staying active, and truly enjoying life has lifted such a weight off our shoulders. Esther at Riverbend is more than just a community; it’s a place where residents are encouraged to live fully, with dignity and joy. Our family couldn’t be more grateful.

I moved my father to The Esther at Riverbend after determining that a different assisted living community was not a good fit. The Esther has been wonderful, and he has been absolutely thriving since his move. I could not be happier with the bright and new building, the spacious and well laid out apartment, the helpful and engaging staff, or the thoughtful and community-oriented activities!

After a lengthy search, we found an excellent Assisted Living home, the Esther at Riverbend for our mother. The Executive Director, Tonya Hodges' professionalism and exceptional knowledge of the Assisted Living industry made the Esther an easy choice. On arrival, we were immediately welcomed by Tonya's staff and community residents. The grounds are well maintained, and the interior common areas are kept meticulously clean. The staff have a very positive attitude, and provide attentive and compassionate care for our mothers specific needs. Of note, Alena, a care partner, demonstrates daily a friendly, caring, and supportive attitude towards our mother and other members of the Ester residential community. We are very pleased to have our mother at this Assisted Living facility where she is thriving.
