Welcome
to Riverview Manor Riverview Manor is a licensed and
accredited long-term care residence in Peterborough,
in the heart of the picturesque Kawarthas. We are easily
accessible by public transit and offer convenient on-site
parking facilities. We are located within minutes of
a large regional hospital and emergency services.
Our dedicated staff provides compassionate, supportive
and professional care and services to 124 residents
with varying interests. Our Behaviour Management Specialist
offers leadership and support to staff and families
concerning the individualized care of residents with
Alzheimer's disease or dementia.
Our commitment to education provides our staff with
the knowledge to ensure each resident receives care
that respects their individuality and preference. It's
part of our Pursuit of Excellence mission.
Our modern, single-level home is designed for residents'
comfort. Bedrooms — private and shared —
are spacious, attractively decorated and feature en-suite
bathrooms. Corridors are wide and accommodating. Visitors
are welcome to join residents for a visit on our patio,
where flowers and herbs are evidence of our horticultural
program, or enjoy our comfortable lounge and spacious
dining room.
Riverview Manor enjoys strong community support. Based
on our belief that residents continue to be valued citizens,
we encourage them to take part in the life of Peterborough
and invite local townspeople to become involved in our
home. Children, local entertainers and clergy visit
us regularly. Volunteers add much to the good
times we have at our summer barbecues, birthday parties,
pub nights, holiday dinners and celebrations.
We are committed to continually strive to exceed the
expectations of individuals and communities we are privileged
to serve. Our commitment to every resident and to those
significant in their lives is to respect and value every
individual and provide an environment which facilitates
a purposeful and peaceful lifestyle and supports the
quality of life residents are entitled to enjoy.
Our residents are valued members of Riverview Manor's
management team. Our Residents Council provides the
opportunity for residents and their family members to
participate in planning and evaluating the services
in our home and supports a strong line of communication
between residents and administration.

How well you all lived up to our desire to have Lloyd

we feel an EXTRAORDINARY amount of kindness and comfort
for us and amazing love for our dad. You couldn't have
helped us more. Your special kindnesses and thoughtfulnesses
will always be cherished.
