Overview of River Place Nursing Center

Operated by RRL, LLC, River Place Nursing Center is a nursing home in Amory, Mississippi, with Nikki Williams serving as administrator. The 60-bed facility on Earl Frye Boulevard is currently at full capacity, with all beds occupied. It accepts both Medicaid and Medicare, providing coverage options for residents who need ongoing skilled nursing care.

Staffing support is important to the facility’s daily operations. Registered nurses provide an average of 51 minutes of direct care per resident each day; nurse aides provide 2 hours 20 minutes of direct care; and LPN/LVN support adds 30 minutes per resident daily. This combination of nursing and aide hours supports mixed-acuity residents in a smaller, more intimate setting than larger regional nursing homes.

The neighborhood has a Walk Score of 40, so some nearby services may be reachable on foot, but most trips will require transportation. This quieter, more residential location would be ideal for families seeking a smaller community where staff and residents know each other well.

State inspections documented instances where the facility addressed deficiencies through corrective action plans and returned to compliance. The most common areas of focus during inspections were residents’ rights, grievance processes, and restraint protocols. These areas have remained a focus of attention for resident safety and regulatory compliance.

River Place Nursing Center’s full occupancy and consistent staffing levels show its stability and welcoming environment for residents and their families. Families considering River Place should take a tour of the home and discuss the care routines and daily activities that shape life there.
