There really is now place like Home. But The Esther is as good as it gets.
When Dad got COVID 4 days prior turning 100 yrs. old he lost the strength in his legs and after rehab we felt he needed some way to keep a quality of living that we couldn't give him at home. He wasn't thrilled at first and is somewhat set in his ways (you can imagine). But the staff and "

He wasn't thrilled at first and is somewhat set in his ways (you can imagine). But the staff and "famaily" at the Esther have treated him like a king. They have taken care of his ongoing medical needs, social desires, and our requests for him. The folks at the Esther are upbeat and helpful anytime we arrive to visit and they take Dad to his many appointments for medical needs. We couldn't ask for much more from folks there and would recommend starting out searching at the Esther THANK YOU ALL [name removed]

Took my 1st tour about a year ago. No ramp to get in. 2nd tour month later and had conversations re: Medicaid contracts. The Esther stated that they were applying for their Medicaid Contracts within 6 months. I paid my $[removed] deposit and picked my choice of room. Fast forward ... NO INTENTION OF CARRYING OR APPLYING FOR MEDICAID CONTRACTS. FACILITY OPENED UP OVER 1 YEAR LATER. DEPOSIT AND RENTAL COSTS INCREASED BEFORE THEY ALLOWED TO MOVE IN. BASIC STUDIO COSTS $[removed]. Avoid this bait and switch method of operation!!!!!!!!!

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 Oregon 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 Oregon regulations for Assisted Living.

Frequently Asked Questions
about The Esther at Riverbend

The Esther at Riverbend offers Studio, 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedrooms. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored The Esther at Riverbend 8 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.
