    Spacious clean riverfront home-like facility

    I was very impressed - the staff were friendly and the facility felt clean and home-like. The spacious, nice rooms (two floors with downstairs options), riverfront porches, home-cooked meals, lots of activities and exercise classes, and clear dementia-care policy - plus being close to the hospital - make it a solid choice.

    Rivercliff Terrace Inc sits in Kittanning, Pennsylvania, and offers care for seniors who need help with daily living, with community locations also in Sarver, Chicora, and Worthington. The facility provides assisted living, personal care, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and independent living options, plus respite programs for short-term stays, and Alzheimer's care services for those who need it.

    Residents get three meals a day plus snacks, with meal delivery to rooms or all-day dining in a restaurant-style dining room that considers allergies and diabetic needs, and the staff handle all meal prep and cleaning up. There's housekeeping, laundry, and dry cleaning too, as well as transportation for appointments and outings, and the staff offer move-in coordination to help new residents settle in. Activities fill the days, with both community-sponsored and resident-led groups, arts classes, movie nights, and regular outings, so people can stay as busy as they like or just enjoy the gardens and walking paths.
