Extended Care Hospital of Riverside sits at 8171 Magnolia Ave in Riverside, California, and offers skilled nursing care with 99 certified beds, an occupancy rate of around 88%, and is part of Providence Health & Services, but it doesn't take new patients right now. This for-profit facility focuses on helping seniors and people with disabilities by offering a wide set of services, including skilled nursing twenty-four hours a day, dietary management, wound care for pressure sores and surgical incisions, pain control, and rehabilitation like physical, occupational, respiratory, and speech and language therapy, and the staff work closely with patients and families to plan the best care and discharge. It's not in a hospital nor does it belong to a Continuing Care Retirement Community, but it belongs to a network with broad community care options and gives resources on assistive devices, social services, and grief counseling. The staff-who sometimes speak other languages-include registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants, who together provide about 4.55 hours of care per resident daily, and care is often described as friendly and attentive, with residents having reported positive experiences.
The facility keeps records on resident health such as weight loss, use of urinary catheters, presence of pressure sores-seeing about 26% of high-risk long-term residents with these sores-and monitors for depression or anxiety, which affects about 8% of residents, with 13% having moderate or severe pain and 12% experiencing urinary tract infections. Extended Care Hospital of Riverside lets those able to manage their own medication do so, and makes sure all daily and emergency medicines are available and given safely. The facility offers flu and pneumococcal shots, runs regular recreational activities tailored to each person, and provides social services to help families and residents with information, support, and planning for safe transfers or discharges while also protecting resident rights.
Extended Care Hospital of Riverside is recognized for its clean, well-kept building and runs with full fire sprinklers. The attentive staff handle infection control with care and have a COVID-19 response, allowing visits based on local health guidelines. Residents get access to grief and loss support, help transitioning out of the facility, and programs for Alzheimer's care, respite, and hospice, with a focus on comfort, symptoms, and keeping independence when possible. The facility's not listed as a Special Focus Facility and does not belong to a Continuing Care Retirement Community, but it does accept Medicare and Medicaid, and maintains both resident and family councils. People have described the atmosphere as positive, clean, and supportive, and the team works hard to match activities and support to each resident's needs.
