Our Experience
The cost was overwhelming. With creative financing we were able to afford it but I truly feel for those who can't. I'm not singling out El Rio. They are all like that. Based on the experience, we would recommend El Rio Memory Care to other families.
About the facility El Rio Memory Care

Operated by the family-owned and experienced Koelsch Senior Communities, El Rio is committed to delivering high-quality care in a purposeful environment.

Hi there,
We are so glad you are able to make it work, senior living can be hard to figure out financially sometimes. But we try to find ways to make all needs and desires work. Welcome to El Rio!

Short Term
My Father only spent 4 days at El Rio. He passed away 4 days after entering the facility. My experience with [name removed] the Sales Director was great. The staff was amazing! The facility was clean and spacious. The care even though short for my father was good.
The rates were comparable to other facilities that seemed not as nice.
I would recommend El Rio to others in need of a Memory Care Facility.

Dedicated memory care is so much better, but is going to cost more because it offers so much more...
A dedicated memory care facility is so much better than a memory care unit "tacked on" to an assisted living facility... because the patients have access to the entire building...grand entry, libraries, private dining, nicer dining etc. Of course, the cost is higher, but really so much more appealing...

Compassion wins
My mother lived at El Rio Memory Care for 15 months before her death. Never have I seen a facility that is driven by patient care and compassion for each and every resident like at El Rio!!
My mother told me regularly and unprompted how nice everyone is to her there and how happy she was. The nursing staff is professional and friendly and invaluable!!
El Rio gave my mother 15 happy months before her death. She felt safe and loved in her home. She was both.
Thank you El Rio for your love and care.

Comments like yours are the best possible confirmation that our efforts to 'create happiness by providing the finest living experience anywhere' are paying off. We strive to create the most loving and nurturing community we can—a true home to our residents—and it warms our hearts to know that we were able to do exactly that for her. Thank you for the kind words and we were so blessed to have your mother here.

My experience so far
We chose El Rio because the director was willing to come in on her day off and do a zoom tour for us. They answered all of our questions and you could tell that it was a nice facility. I could not go into the facility until a few weeks ago because of covid, but once I was able to go in it is very clean. The room that she has is a good size for what she needs. They do have some fun activities, I know she has been on a few bus rides and for example tomorrow they are having a Father's Day barbecue. I would recommend to other families who are looking.

What a great place! I know that my father will be very happy at El Rio. It is staffed with caring and knowledgeable people. It is clean and at the times of my visits - quiet! I know that the peace can be upset at any time but there isn't the constant chaos that some other facilities have.

Mom is happy here
This is a brand new community. They are keeping mom active with limited exercises. They are always engaging her to join the daily activities they will give them choices. The caregivers really care and it means something to them. The cleanliness is spectacular. They offer a shuttle to get to the doctor or the grocery store if needed. They have motion and light sensors everywhere which make her feel safe. I would recommend this community to families.

A Place for Mom has scored El Rio Memory Care 8.6 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.
We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.
Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
