Riverview Terrace is a senior living community in Spokane that offers a diverse range of apartment floorplans tailored for both independent and assisted living adults. Residents can choose from studio, one-bedroom, and select alternative apartment sizes according to their preferences and needs. One notable feature of Riverview Terrace is the unique flexibility it provides, allowing residents to begin with independent living and seamlessly transition to assisted living within the same apartment, removing the need for disruptive moves.
The community emphasizes a month-to-month rental model for room and board in the Terrace Apartments, with no required buy-in. Every individual living in the Terrace is enrolled in the assisted living program, which comes with a comprehensive package of amenities and services. These include a personal emergency pendant, access to a licensed nurse available around the clock, three nutritious meals daily plus snacks, beverages such as water and coffee available all day, high-speed internet, basic cable, light housekeeping, and participation in the full array of campus activities.
Riverview Terrace advocates what it calls “cruise ship” living for residents who seek the basics in services and an active, engaging lifestyle. For those requiring more substantial support, the community is prepared to manage a wide variety of medical conditions, including insulin-dependent diabetes, wound care, and ostomy management. Medication administration, bathing assistance, escorting to meals and activities, toileting support, and dressing are among the daily living activities offered, ensuring that care is tailored as residents’ needs evolve. The “level of care” system at Riverview Terrace means residents pay only for the services required at any given time, following an initial free assessment to determine individualized needs. Ongoing evaluations occur yearly, or more frequently if changes arise, guaranteeing that care remains appropriate and responsive.
Riverview Terrace is staffed by a dedicated team, with a nurse present at all times to meet the various care needs as long as those needs remain steady and predictable. Many employees have been with the community for more than five years, contributing to the continuity and familiarity valued by residents. Riverview strives for a consistent staff-to-resident ratio and meets or exceeds recommended staffing guidelines, underscoring its commitment to quality and attentive care.
The apartments themselves feature thoughtfully designed living spaces, from Roomette alcoves to spacious living rooms and contemporary kitchens. The Terrace has studio apartments, one-bedroom apartments, and several two-bedroom layouts. Residents enjoy beautifully maintained personal and shared areas, combining comfort with practicality. The approach at Riverview Terrace is grounded in supporting older adults through the aging process, with services and amenities that adapt to changing circumstances while fostering independence, community engagement, and overall well-being.
