Review for Gateway at River City
A good place to live. I came from living independently to here so there are a lot of changes and compromises for me, but so far I love it here. For my needs this place works great for me. It's not perfect but it's damn close IMO!

I you require a special diet or are a non smoker look elsewhere
If you require a special diet such as low sodium or diabetic diet don't bother Gateway at River City does not provide such diets. Another thing if you are a nonsmoker you have no rights either smokers ignore the state of IL smoke-free IL laws and smoke outside of all 4 doors without the staff or administration doing anything about it. They have it listed in the lease that the only authorized smoking area for the residents is out back of the dining room however they ignore the IL law and their own rental lease. The administration is pretty much useless at even enforcing their own rules for the residents.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Illinois regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Illinois regulations for Assisted Living.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Gateway at River City

Gateway at River City offers Studio, 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedrooms. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Gateway at River City 1 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
