Home Care in
Riverdale
Riverdale is the most affluent neighborhood in the Bronx, a hillside community overlooking the Hudson River with a distinctive character unlike anywhere else in the borough. Riverdale has the highest concentration of Jewish residents in the Bronx — 22% of households include a Jewish person, and 40% of adults in Jewish households are seniors over 65, according to the Jewish Community Study of New York. The neighborhood is also home to a significant Russian and Ukrainian immigrant population who arrived largely after the Soviet Union's collapse. The Hebrew Home at Riverdale — now part of RiverSpring Living on Palisade Avenue — is a 32-acre geriatric care campus that has served this community since 1917 and is consistently ranked among the best nursing homes in the country. Many Riverdale families, however, prefer the alternative of in-home care — allowing elderly relatives to remain in their own apartments and homes with family nearby rather than transitioning to a facility. Good Care Agency serves Riverdale in English, Russian, Hebrew, and Ukrainian, with staff who understand both the clinical needs and the cultural expectations of this community.
