Riverdale Post Acute is a nursing home on East Bridge Street in Brighton, Colorado, that focuses on helping people recover after hospital stays, and you'll see that it provides both short-term rehabilitation and long-term care, which means it serves people needing help for a few weeks and those staying longer. The facility features skilled nursing services around the clock and offers physical, occupational, and speech therapy, so people with different needs can get treatment. There are programs for dementia and memory care, and each person has a care plan that's made special for them. Riverdale Post Acute has a large rehab gym with modern equipment and staff who have training in advanced healthcare practices, so patients can do exercises supervised by licensed experts. The building offers spacious courtyards and comfortable common areas, giving families and patients space to visit or rest, and the staff work all week, with licensed nurses always on duty.
Riverdale Post Acute is owned by Centennial Master Tenant, LLC and is affiliated with Pacs Group, placing it in CHCA District I. It has 105 certified beds and sees about 93 residents a day, so it's not always full. Its nurse staffing level is 3.17 hours per resident each day, and nurse turnover is at 60.7%, which means staff changes happen fairly often. The front desk operates from 8 am to 4:30 pm all week, with admission support available by phone at all times, and licensed staff help with admissions and insurance questions.
The facility puts effort into wellness, recreation, and safety, and the focus is on giving patients a supportive, caring place to heal after a hospital stay, with amenities designed for recovery. Riverdale Post Acute uses social media and digital communication tools like Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, and Threads to share updates.
There are, though, several deficiencies noted by regulators: the facility has issues reported in areas like resident rights-meaning some residents may not always feel dignified or free to make choices or communicate as they want-as well as in nutrition and dietary practices, where some food wasn't handled according to professional standards, and in ensuring certain areas remain free from accident hazards, showing that sometimes more supervision or safety checks are needed. It has licensed experts handle admissions, care, and insurance, and its website provides basic sections about the facility, photos, open job opportunities, and a way to contact staff. Riverdale Post Acute specializes in post-acute care and tries to give patients a sense of healing, wellness, and safety in a setting built for recovery and support.
