River Birch Living offers assisted living, memory care, nursing homes, independent living, and continuing care retirement community services, so you're looking at a place with a range of choices for older adults, whether someone needs just a bit of help each day or more involved nursing care, and people get personalized medical support here, with 24-hour supervision, help with bathing, dressing, medication management, and coordination with hospitals like Health Care Service Corporation hospital and St John's Health Center, so families don't have to worry about finding transportation on their own for doctor appointments. There's a focus on making life comfortable and meaningful, with beautiful walking paths and a quiet garden for relaxing or socializing, regular movie nights, and community events that make it easier for neighbors to come together. Prices start at about $3,900 per month, which changes depending on the kind of room and care needed, but the costs help pay for small community living where staff know residents well, and where everyone's invited to take part regardless of faith or background since the place is run through Christian Horizons and the Arcadia network, both of which stress serving people from all walks of life.
River Birch Living puts money earned back into the community, so residents see upgrades, staff get fair wages, and there's always work happening to keep things up to date with new programs and building projects that improve comfort and safety, and they offer unique programs, like Pathway Memory Support® for those living with memory loss, which means staff get extra training to help people with dementia or Alzheimer's, along with special activities and ways to include families. The Hickory Point Christian Village part of the community has been singled out among the best nursing homes in the country for 2024, which says something about how they run things, and another program, GracePoint, provides short-term rehabilitation with private suites for folks coming out of surgery or dealing with injury, and staff are known for listening carefully to families and changing plans when needed, which seems to go a long way for people looking for care.
Rooms come with options like TV, high-speed internet, showers, tubs, ground floor access, and air conditioning, and many are designed to help wheelchair users get around more easily. Residents can eat at flexible times with meal choices to fit different needs including vegan, low-sodium, no sugar, or even room service if they prefer, visitors can join for guest meals, and there's both on-site dining and a private dining space for special occasions. You'll find amenities like parking and transportation to stores and medical appointments, with staff who are trained to handle diabetic care, medication management, and incontinence support, plus specialized memory care units that use safe designs to prevent wandering and reduce confusion for those who need it most. Folks can choose short-term stays, join in as much or as little as they want in activities, and live in small house settings where everyone can connect as neighbors or just spend quiet time alone if that's what suits them.
The place runs on a simple idea-help people stay independent as long as possible in body, mind, and spirit, offering support that matches exactly what each person needs, and doing so with a faith-led outlook, all while welcoming anyone, no matter their faith or walk of life, and with steady updates and focus on quality, River Birch Living tries to make a steady, dependable place for older adults and their families.
