Staff at Riverdale Court create a welcoming, friendly and safe environment for residents and support them to take part in activities at the home and to socialise with other residents. At the heart of the home is our philosophy of care, the Eden Alternative (Awarded Foundation), where staff encourage social interaction, engagement and work towards the eradication of loneliness and boredom.
