BeeHive Homes of Rio Rancho
BeeHive Homes of Rio Rancho in Rio Rancho, NM offers three types of care, assisted living, memory care, and respite care. Assisted living includes support with everyday activities. For an individual with dementia, memory care provides a secured and supervised setting. A brief respite stay gives a usual caregiver a break, whether they require rest, travel, or time to heal.
Having 12 beds, the home remains small, so residents and staff come to know each other well. Rooms are private, each serving as a personal living area for one person. Pets can remain with their owners.
Rates are determined by the level of care. Level 1 assisted living costs $5,555 monthly, Level 2 care costs $6,050, Level 3 is $6,300, and Level 4 amounts to $7,050. An entrance fee of $2,000 is also listed.
The home is operated by Rio Hive LLC, and Megan Smith serves as the administrator. The three combined suit a resident with evolving needs, as well as someone seeking a small environment with assisted living, memory care, or short-term respite care.
