Spotlight on: Legacy Staff at Riverstone Terrace
A Day in the Life at Riverstone Terrace Senior Living – A Conversation with Sales Director Sebastian Rodriguez
Where Legacy Meets Love: Inside Riverstone Terrace Senior Living
When it comes to finding the perfect senior living community, the details matter. At Sequoia’s Placement for Mom, we’re passionate about connecting families with communities that feel like home. That’s why we were thrilled to sit down with Sebastian Rodriguez, Sales Director at Riverstone Terrace Senior Living, to get an inside look at what makes this community so special.
From their legacy staff to their homey memory care unit, Riverstone Terrace is a shining example of what senior living should be. So, grab a cup of coffee, and let’s dive into the heart of this incredible community.
A Warm Welcome: Trivia, Laughter, and Community
The moment we walked into Riverstone Terrace, we were greeted by the sound of laughter. A group of residents was gathered in the common area, deeply engrossed in a game of trivia. It wasn’t just any trivia game—it was lively, engaging, and full of joy.
Sebastian smiled as he explained, “This is what we’re all about. Creating moments that bring residents together and make them feel at home.”
It’s not every day you walk into a senior living community and feel like you’ve stepped into a family gathering. But at Riverstone Terrace, that’s exactly the vibe.
Meet Sebastian Rodriguez: A Passion for People
Sebastian Rodriguez has spent 15 years in sales and marketing, but his transition to senior living has been uniquely rewarding. “This industry is about more than just business,” he shared. “It’s about giving families peace of mind and ensuring residents live vibrant, fulfilling lives.”
Sebastian’s journey to senior living wasn’t a straight path. He started in the building construction industry, moved to digital marketing, and eventually found his calling in senior care. “This is my first time working in a business-to-customer role, and it’s been incredibly fulfilling,” he said.
The Legacy Staff: A Team That Feels Like Family
One of the standout features of Riverstone Terrace is its legacy staff. Take Kelly, the Memory Care Coordinator, for example. She’s been with the community for 23 years, starting as a caregiver and working her way up.
“There’s nothing Kelly hasn’t seen,” Sebastian said with a smile. “Her expertise and dedication are invaluable. She’s seen it all, and she knows how to handle every situation with grace and compassion.”
But Kelly isn’t the only long-term team member. Many staff members have been with Riverstone Terrace for over a decade, creating a sense of continuity and trust that’s hard to find elsewhere.
The Big Three: Dining, Care, and Activities
At Riverstone Terrace, they focus on what Sebastian calls “The Big Three”: dining, care, and activities.
🍽️ **Dining**: Forget bland cafeteria food. Residents enjoy chef-prepared meals that rival a restaurant experience.
💙 **Care**: From assistance with daily living to specialized memory care, the staff is dedicated to providing personalized support.
🎉 **Activities**: Whether it’s trivia, fitness classes, or live music on Fridays, there’s always something fun happening.
“We’re always looking for ways to enhance the resident experience,” Sebastian explained. “It’s not just about keeping residents busy—it’s about creating meaningful moments.”
Memory Care That Feels Like Home
One of the most impressive aspects of Riverstone Terrace is its memory care unit. Unlike many memory care facilities, which can feel sterile and institutional, Riverstone Terrace’s unit is designed to feel like home.
The layout is spacious and easy to navigate, with plenty of room for wheelchairs and walkers. The courtyard is a true highlight—a serene, beautifully landscaped space where residents can relax and enjoy the outdoors.
“Our memory care team is top-notch,” Sebastian said. “They keep residents active and engaged, which helps slow the decline. It’s truly special to see.”
Peace of Mind for Families
For Sebastian, the most rewarding part of his job is giving families peace of mind. “Knowing their loved ones are cared for allows families to relax and enjoy life,” he said. “That’s what we’re here for.”
He shared a story about a resident who was hesitant to leave their home. The team at Riverstone Terrace didn’t give up. They worked with Senior Doc to provide in-home evaluations and even sent Kelly and the activities director to the resident’s home to start building trust.
“We’re relentless when it comes to helping families,” Sebastian said. “We won’t give up until we’ve found a solution.”
Why Riverstone Terrace Stands Out
So, what sets Riverstone Terrace apart? Here are a few key highlights:
Legacy Staff: With team members like Kelly, who’s been there for 23 years, the community has a wealth of experience and dedication.
Homey Memory Care: The memory care unit is designed to feel cozy and welcoming, with private family spaces and a stunning courtyard.
The Big Three: Dining, care, and activities are at the heart of everything they do.
Peace of Mind: Families can rest easy knowing their loved ones are in good hands.
