Riverview Retirement Community
Spokane, WA - Assisted Living, Nursing Home, Independent Living, CCRC
Riverview Retirement Community's 32-acre campus is ready and waiting for you to visit. Since opening our doors in 1959 along the beautiful Spokane River, Riverview has had a rich history of satisfied residents. From opening the first assisted living facility in Spokane to pioneering the enjoyment of pets and plants in a care center environment, Riverview has been at the forefront of improvements in active adult living.
As one of only four continuing care retirement communities in Spokane, often people find their place at Riverview first in our independent living homes. However, your needs may change over time. Many of our residents transition to our assisted living or skilled nursing options so they can access more help but remain close to nurture the friendships they've built here. At Riverview, we're not about retirement, but re-vitalization. We provide more than a place to live. We provide a place to meet friends and fulfill promises you've made yourself your entire life.
