The staff at River Road are very friendly and attentive to the residents. My sister in law enjoys the food and they have a variety to choose from. They have activities for the residents, however she does not participate in any. The community is well maintained inside and out.

Transportation

Buffalo has a number of different options to get around the city. Public transportation in Buffalo is run by Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority, which has over 60 bus routes and can get you to the Buffalo Metro Rail light rail system. The Department of Senior Services, meanwhile, offers the Going Places Transportation Program for seniors 60+.

Health care

Buffalo offers several health care providers for seniors wanting to be proactive about their health or for seniors seeking treatment for chronic conditions. The area has several hospitals, including Buffalo General Medical Center, Mercy Hospital-Buffalo, and Kenmore Mercy.

Senior activities

Buffalo has been having a renaissance, based on its proximity to nature and its vibrant environment. The city’s remarkable transformation includes a redeveloped waterfront, revitalized neighborhoods, and a burgeoning craft beer scene. From old-school taverns and dive bars to craft beers, casinos, and live music, the Nickel City runs from dusk to near dawn. The city, however, is perhaps most famously known for its chicken wings. Buffalo’s Anchor Bar changed the course of American food history in 1964 by inventing the Buffalo-style chicken wing. In the decades since, Buffalo’s corner taverns have perfected variations on the wing, each with its own secret recipe. While you’re in Buffalo, you’ll be right near Niagara Falls State Park, known for its awe-inspiring scenic beauty. The raw power of 4-6 million cubic feet of water rushing over the edges every minute of the day is a true natural wonder that can be experienced by land or water.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living is long-term care for seniors who are generally active and independent, but who require increased supervision and help with some daily tasks.

Services and amenities in assisted living facilities often include:

  • Housekeeping
  • Nutritious meals and snacks
  • Help with personal care
  • Laundry
  • Social activities and outings
  • 24-hour emergency response
