Riverbend Residential Care Home is a family-owned and operated level 3 residential care home nestled in the heart of a beautiful Vermont village. With a capacity for twenty-two residents, the home is designed to create an intimate, family-like atmosphere that prioritizes both individual attention and community engagement. The building itself is a charming representation of Victorian architecture, featuring cozy shared living and dining rooms, private resident rooms, and inviting spaces such as a front porch, back deck, and a gardened backyard. Residents enjoy modern amenities alongside the historic character of the home, creating a warm and welcoming environment.
The home places great emphasis on fostering nurturing community partnerships, working in collaboration with local schools, health centers, medical specialists, transport services, art programs, and the area’s senior center. Its location right in the village center allows residents easy access to the town’s library, post office, bank, stores, churches, and other community resources, making participation in village life both convenient and enriching. Outdoors, residents can stroll the sidewalk to greet neighbors, relax on the swing in the yard, listen to the gentle sounds of the First Branch of the White River, and enjoy birdwatching at the feeder.
Professional care at Riverbend is available around the clock, ensuring residents receive individualized support tailored to their needs while encouraging as much independence as possible. Staffed with personal care providers including a Registered Nurse and Nursing Assistants, the home assists residents with activities of daily living, ongoing medical management, and appointments with specialists in fields such as eye care, audiology, cardiology, neurology, orthopedics, and rheumatology. Supervision of residents’ physical and mental well-being, medication management, and prompt response to requests for assistance are all integral aspects of the home’s service.
