Riverview has always been fortunate to enjoy enormous support from a very generous community which greatly assists in providing a loving, comfortable homelike environment. Along with a band of "couldn't do without" volunteers, 23 enthusiastic staff assist our Manager in providing the residents with many in-house and outdoor activities.

Riverview residents enjoy monthly picnics to local grazing properties. Many of them have family still living on the land or have worked on these properties in their lifetime. They love to reminisce and get back into the countryside which has been a huge part of their lives.
