Home The Hebrew Home at Riverdale

Welcome to our Nationally Acclaimed Hebrew Home at Riverdale

Recognized as one of the nation’s very best long-term care nursing homes, with over 100 years of nonprofit service, we continually push the boundaries of what’s possible in skilled nursing care here on our riverfront campus in Riverdale, New York.

The name so many families have trusted to treat their loved ones
like family.

The Hebrew Home at Riverdale is designed for older adults who need more consistent, comprehensive care than can be provided at home. It’s an ideal community for individuals who require daily assistance with activities like bathing, dressing, or eating, as well as those living with complex conditions such as stroke, Parkinson’s, or Alzheimer’s. With expert medical support, medication management, and on-site rehabilitation services, our skilled team provides peace of mind to families and expert around-the-clock care to residents who they treat like family. That’s the RiverSpring Difference.

Ideal for a range of older adults – from those needing assistance with the tasks of daily living to those requiring specialized treatments and 24/7 care such as memory care, we take pride in elevating what it means to age with dignity.

“I’ve been working as a CNA in Hebrew Home for three years. One of my residents always tells me, ‘You guys are so lovely. You’re like my first or second family, because most of the time you’re with us for 24 hours.”

–Margaret B., Certified Nursing Assistant

“Here at the Hebrew Home, they have helped me incredibly. I can walk. I got some of my independence back. They were very nice to me. The therapy team is excellent. They’re very encouraging. I’m grateful that I came here. I want to thank the Hebrew Home for helping me get through this journey.”

–Renee S., Resident

Spiritual Support, for Every Soul

We celebrate the moments that matter most to our residents—hosting services and communal meals for Jewish holidays, observances for Christian and Catholic traditions, and memorial gatherings that honor each life with dignity.
