River Road Retirement Residence in Niagara Falls, ON

The staff at River Road are very friendly and attentive to the residents. My sister in law enjoys the food and they have a variety to choose from. They have activities for the residents, however she does not participate in any. The community is well maintained inside and out.

Brompton Heights does a good job at working with you to make sure your loved one has the best care possible. They are compassionate, and skilled at different levels of care for the residents. The meals are decent for my loved one. Ice cream socials, outside entertainment, book readings, celebrations and more are some of the activities available for the residents to choose from.

When you have no idea what to do a place for mom can be a big help. It’s good to start looking before you absolutely need it because you have time to make decisions and assess the situation. We got my mom in a nice place where she’s so much better off. It is not assisted living. It is senior housing and they have a lot of amenities there. The woman who helped me actually showed me what we could afford, Where as I had no idea before. The only problem was the woman who helped me, did not live in the area, and was not familiar with where we were living and what was close by. But she was knowledgeable enough to direct us to the right direction.
