Review for Discovery Commons Raincross

I visited most of the facilities referred to me by Place for Mom. Narrowed it down to 3 and took my dad to see them. He chose Raincross. Raincross was smaller with fewer residents. My Dad's condition was worsening, and we thought those factors would be helpful to him. My dad was there for 45 days before he passed.

Our Family's Journey

The staff is caring and great. The cost increased $[removed] after the first year. That was not disclosed when the original agreement was signed. The increase is ridiculous. Room size is adequate and activities seem to happen regularly. My mom does not really participate in activities so I don't really know about them.

Very friendly staff

I was very apprehensive about putting my mom in assisted living because she’s not a very social person. She’s quiet and keeps to herself. The staff there was so friendly and welcoming. She’s actually doing so much better being there than she was in our home. They take very good care of her, assisting her with showers and tidying up her room. She goes to the dining room for three meals a day, and she says that the food is very good. She enjoys the company of the other guests and has even made a good friend

Discovery Commons Raincross

I have pretty limited contact with them but they always seem friendly and helpful. I do wish they did more outings for the residents such as going out shopping, tours etc.

Raincross at Riverside review

My loved one always complained about the menu choices, but she complained always at that stage. However, I would recommend this community to other families based on the experience, but I would say the family should go and have all their questions and concerns answered onsite before making a decision.
