Palm Terrace Care Center sits in Riverside and has helped people for over 30 years, giving short-term rehab, long-term care, assisted living, and memory care for seniors, so folks who stay here might get many kinds of help depending on what they need, and you'll find round-the-clock supervision, skilled nursing care, and help with bathing, dressing, moving around, or taking medicine, and the staff speak English and are friendly and trained, which makes things smoother for everyone. The nurses work day and night, and there's always a call system available, so you'll never have to wait long for help, and personal care aides assist with things like laundry, grooming, and other daily needs. The community provides physical, occupational, and speech therapy, and an in-house therapy team works closely with residents, families, and doctors to make custom care plans, and they use the latest research and both hands-on and high-tech therapies to help people recover after injury, illness, or surgery, plus there's support for folks with wounds, chronic conditions, or even those needing IV therapy.
For seniors with Alzheimer's or similar problems, Palm Terrace runs the Integrated Cognitive Program, which helps reduce confusion and keep residents safe, and the memory care area tries to stop wandering and encourage comfort. The building has safety features like handicap-accessible rooms and emergency sprinkler systems, and there's a choice of private rooms, semi-private rooms, and apartments with their own kitchen or kitchenette, washers and dryers, housecleaning, and cable TV, and monthly rates go from about $5,000 to $8,000, depending on your room.
Palm Terrace is a for-profit place with certified beds, and it accepts both Medicare and Medicaid, so folks with those insurances will find coverage here, and as of June 2025, 5 of its 71 beds are open. It's not a CCRC, and doesn't have any resident or family councils, but the staff keep care plans updated with input from residents, their families, and healthcare providers. Onsite there's a library, game and arts rooms, salon/barbershop, dining area, fitness center, and peaceful outdoor spots, and if you want to head out, you'll find restaurants like Wanda's Cafe and Yard House and a V 215 pharmacy nearby.
The community offers a full activities schedule, including movie nights, music, arts and crafts, social programs, health and wellness classes, and outings, which help keep people engaged and active, and there's transportation if you want to leave the campus for appointments or fun. Meals are prepared for everyone, and there are laundry, dry-cleaning, and room maintenance services to keep things easy. Medical services are available for podiatry, wound care, medication management, and more, and you'll always have a nurse nearby to help, so you can feel safer. Palm Terrace has a 5-star overall care rating from Medicare.gov, and tries to provide care in a comfortable and gentler way, especially for those in need of respite, palliative, or end-of-life support. The facility sits close to Parkview Community Hospital Medical Center for easy access to doctors or emergencies, and with a focus on safety and support, many families find Palm Terrace fits a broad set of care needs, whether it's for a short recovery stay or longer care.
