Rivermont Independent Living sits in Norman, Oklahoma, on a quiet, private property less than 10 minutes from Oklahoma University, and folks come here when they want to forget about household chores and focus on a life that's easier and a little more carefree, with caring staff around to help when needed and neighbors nearby who want to meet new friends and join all kinds of activities. The place has a fresh feel since it's been renewed and remodeled, and the brick buildings and well-kept gardens give it a calm and pleasant feeling, with a scenic courtyard, benches, and outdoor spaces for enjoying some Oklahoma sunshine. Inside, you'll find comfortable seating areas in the lobby and mezzanine, an art studio with supplies and finished pieces, and a lounge with plenty of natural light for relaxing or playing games with friends, plus an activity room for group events and a cafe with patio views.
The apartments come in one, two, and three-bedroom floor plans, each with a modern kitchen, washer and dryer connections, lots of storage, and heating and air units you can control yourself, plus everyone gets patios or balconies and high-speed Wi-Fi. Folks who want an extra hand or some company can use companion services, and there's 24-hour emergency maintenance, so no one has to worry if something stops working during the night. Rivermont Independent Living focuses on independent living, but families can also find Assisted Living, Personal Care, Memory Care, and Respite Care under the same roof, fitting each resident's needs and wants, which helps take some stress off down the road. The staff are fully trained, friendly, and always available, with Resident Director Jill Townsend on site, and Angie Williams and Kelly Joslin handling sales.
Residents can join a packed schedule of events and activities thanks to the Life Enrichment program, with group exercise, art, spiritual fellowship, happy hour socials, live concerts, educational sessions, and social events, and there are wellness programs and a structured calendar to help folks stay active and feeling their best. Restaurant-style dining in the Gold Leaf Dining Room serves up chef-prepared and nutritious menu choices every day, which residents say are enjoyable, and offsite devotional services are offered for those who want them. Also, there are on-site amenities like a salon for hair care, lounges for games and conversation, activity rooms with TVs, and a spacious lobby with a grand piano, so there's no shortage of spaces for socializing or relaxing. The community keeps things clean and tidy and offers a welcoming environment for adults 55 and up who want to meet new people and stay active without worrying about home maintenance. Rivermont Independent Living aims to keep residents healthy, happy, and engaged, with plenty of services and amenities for wellness and personal growth, and there are tours and virtual visits available for those who want a closer look at daily life, dining, and activities.
