Regency Woodland accepts Medicaid.
Operated by BD Salem I, LLC, Regency Woodland is a 40-bed assisted living community under Melinda Gibbins’ administration in Salem, Oregon. Situated on Sunnyside Road with a Walk Score of 76, it sits in a highly walkable area where most daily errands can be done on foot.
Operating for 37 years, giving it a lengthy history in Salem’s senior care landscape, the facility offers studio and one-bedroom housing options. It accepts residents seeking assistance with daily activities while staying as independent as possible in a residential setting. As a smaller community, the property provides a more intimate setting than larger assisted living homes in the area. Its location in a really walkable neighborhood makes it easy for family visits and allows mobile residents to access nearby errands and services on foot.
State inspections by Oregon’s Department of Human Services, Aging and People with Disabilities have included attention to staffing documentation, facility administration, staff training protocols, and fire and life safety compliance. Through follow-up visits and corrective measures, Regency Woodland has worked to address identified areas.
Visiting the home in person, for families exploring options in Salem, will give a good sense of the studio and one-bedroom layouts, plus how daily life is structured there.
