We were lucky to have such a warm and caring staff help us through my father's hospice care
The night staff that I interacted with every night while my father was in hospice care were absolutely wonderful. They were not only careful and sweet to my father, but they were very kind to me and my mother as well. I'll never forget their kindness for as long as I live.

tour review
Our family had an in person tour and even though the receptionist was very nice and helpful, we were not all that happy. It seemed more like a nursing home more than assisted living. it seemed dreary, no really activity going on and not a lot of staff around.

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 New Jersey 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 New Jersey regulations for Assisted Living.

A Place for Mom has scored Riverwalk Village at The House of the Good Shepherd 8.6 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.
