About Riverdale Court
Riverdale Court provides residential, dementia and respite care for older people in Welling. The not-for-profit home is part of Avante Care & Support, which also offers home care, nursing support and specialist dementia services across its wider organisation.
Avante’s care model uses tailored care plans built around individual requirements, with families able to explore fees, funding and the home’s care arrangements. Riverdale Court is therefore suited to both permanent residential needs and temporary respite planning. Residential, dementia and respite care gives families three clear routes to discuss when assessing support for an older relative.
