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.

Nice place but way too expensive for my budget. Close to shopping for groceries , gas, and my PC Dr. Just can't afford it on a low income at 84.

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.

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.

The tour guide spent maybe a total of 15 minutes giving us a tour and talking with us. She didn’t act like she cared about us or having us even visit. She may have been having a bad day but we were not impressed with her attitude. We are looking elsewhere.

Enjoying Peace of Mind

The personnel are responsive. The intake individual, [name removed], was exceptionally helpful and reached out to the previous facility to facilitate transfer and collect necessary documentation. My mother has progressed to a hospice level of care now. Avamere allows any hospice organization you contract with to assist with the patient's care.

It took 1 month to get my AC fixed . No housekeeping for 2 weeks. If there is anything delivered to the front desk it takes forever to get delivered. It is ice cold in dining room. The food is good but they are short on staff.

An overall title would be: A good choice for assisted living and the NM PACE program

When it comes to the friendliness the staff gets a 4-5, but the admin staff gets a 3. The staff gets a 2-3 depending on who and we can't speak to the activities. The frontline staff really got to know me and my Granny and knew what she liked and how to care for her best. They worked with me on challenges to overcome them. Also it's a very attractive facility.

Pretty much ok

the real experience is not the advertised reality. The chef changed and the food is not as good. The staff is not totally crisp with arriving with the help they agreed to. In a minor way. All in all it is MUCH better than the previous facility (not to be named). The facility itself is pleasant enough. The activities are real. My friend seems happy overall with just the above mentioned. I would recommend it.

The staff treat my mom with compassion and respect. The building feels like someone's home, not sterile or clinical. Based on the experience we have had, we would recommend this community to other families who may need a place for their loved ones.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know New Mexico’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about New Mexico’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
