Our experience

We moved my brother in law and his wife, who was living in another long term care facility to the veterans home in truth or consequences, New Mexico They had been on a waiting list. However, we were very pleased with Avamere in Rio Rancho. When the veterans home was available for them both, they wanted to be together. We would recommend Avamere to other families.

Review for Avamere at Rio Rancho

The staff is friendly and cooperative. I would recommend them to others who are searching for care for their loved one. They represent a good value in a very expensive market.

The assistance I received from [name removed] and [name removed] was amazing. They took on the difficult task of dealing with the facility in Roswell to arrange my mother's transfer. The assisted living home in Roswell did not make things easy but the staff at Avamere was persistent. They even helped me arrange transport. Once my mother arrived at Avamere everything was ready making for a smooth transition. My mom has been a resident for almost 2 months and I have no complaints.

Critical

Avamere at Rio Rancho

The caretakers add a strong work ethic if they even showed up to do their job you couldn't always depend on them to be there when you want them to be there. They were mostly older teenagers that really wanted to work, but we're not always dependable.

Review for Avamere at Rio Rancho

The staff is good...good communication the room she is is is big...you need to bring your own bed and things lots of activities and they try to include the residents...food looks ok never ate there but it looks edible. it is a smaller place and the price was better than some of the bigger ones...my fear was it being so big with [name removed] forgetting so much I think it would confuse her even more.
