Riverdale hosted a wonderful Christmas event with Reindeers, food, hot drinks, a singer, Santa and all friends and family of residents and workers were welcomed.

Riverdale Care Home

from D P (Husband of Resident) published on 18 September 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife has now been at the care home for about 6 months and is fully settled in. I was invited to a Country and Western Musical, BBQ and ice cream event at the care home. Really not my scene, however, my wife is very musical. I went and was immediately impressed with the fantastic organisation that
had obviously gone into the planning. The music, BBQ and the tattoo painting lady. The star for me was the maintenance man, normally rushing around with a screwdriver in his hand, fully dressed up as Woody from Toy Story. A really memorable day. I wish to thank everyone for the excellent planning for a most enjoyable day.

from Toni R (Resident) published on 26 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would just like to say how very happy we are that my husbands mother is in Riverdale care home Braintree. From the minute you walk through the door you are met with a big smile and a hello. The staff and management are amazing, we are all on first name terms. The activities they have daily are very
engaging. My dad is in there at the moment on respite, and he is really enjoying himself. You have plenty of choice when it comes to food. Your family member is looked after to a very high standard. The rooms have en suites, and if you need anything they are happy to oblige. I can not recommend this care home enough. When we took my mother in law for respite in the beginning, because she had just been diagnosed with double dementia we worried that she would be unsettled, but no, within a day or 2 she was ringing us up and saying that she wanted to stay and didn't want to go back home. Highly recommended, could write more but no space.

A beautiful home full of beautiful staff. We were so upset when we knew Dad needed nursing care, but the team at Riverdale knew exactly what to do and say to make things as happy as possible. It feels like a second home for us all, despite our short stay. The staff gave Dad his dignity back and we can't
thank them enough. The home is in a lovely location with beautiful gardens and the decor is classy and homely. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Couldn't recommend enough.

My mum was transferred from hospital to Riverdale for end of life care. The staff were amazing from the receptionists, nursing staff and cleaners. Everyone was polite, helpful and caring. My mum received excellent care, and passed away, pain free and with dignity. My heartfelt thank you, to you all.
I will never forget your kindness.

My Dad is well cared for and is listened too, they are lots of activities for the residents and rooms are kept very clean, staff are all brilliant and appear to enjoy their job.
One issue I have had is that my Dad's clothes often go missing and as tumble dried often shrink so have to be replaced.

I have visited Riverdale a number of times and each time I have been impressed by the quality of care, patience, and understanding of all staff. Their demeanour is always one of cheeriness and nothing is too much trouble for any staff member. At very short notice their arrangements for a Family Christmas
Day had to be changed because of inclement weather. But, you would never have known it! Well done to everyone for a wonderful afternoon.

Over the last few weeks, I have witnessed and experienced an overwhelming lift in the staff's morale in and around Riverdale. I believe this is due to new management who displays a real presence around the home. The home feels a much happier place to be. Staff are much more motivated. Overall standards
in both care and support have clearly risen along with activities, cleanliness, and overall appearance. I feel very lucky to have my Mum as a resident at Riverdale. When I leave after a visit I feel she is safe and well cared for.

We have been coming monthly to visit a resident for the past 18 months. We have found the staff friendly and welcoming, very positive in their interaction with residents.
She is well cared for and always looks smart. There are high standards of cleanliness in the rooms and the toilet!
