The health inspection rating stands at 1 star, the lowest rating on the scale, indicating a greater number or severity of health inspection findings relative to other facilities.

Riverdale Post Acute is certified to accept payment through both Medicare and Medicaid programs.

Prospective residents and their families are advised to verify current payment options and availability directly with the facility.
When compared to national benchmarks, the facility presents a mixed profile. The 5-star quality measure rating places it among the higher-performing facilities in that category nationally. However, the overall 2-star rating and the 1-star health inspection rating indicate areas where the facility's performance is below the national average.

About CMS Star Ratings
CMS assigns 1–5 star ratings to Medicare and Medicaid-certified nursing homes based on three domains: health inspections, staffing levels, and quality measures. The overall rating is a weighted composite.
A 5-star overall rating does not guarantee excellence in every domain — inspect each sub-rating independently. Data is updated quarterly.
