Regency Care of Central Oregon offers nursing home, skilled nursing, assisted living, independent living, memory care and respite care in Bend, Oregon. Nursing home and skilled nursing care provide licensed nursing on site around the clock. Assisted living supports daily tasks such as dressing, bathing and medication while a resident keeps an apartment. Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care.
Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, while respite care offers a short stay for a family whose usual caregiver needs to travel or recover. The range of care levels can suit a resident whose needs grow over time without leaving the community. There are 46 beds in the Southern Crossing neighborhood, a size at which staff and residents can get to know each other.
The area is very walkable, with most errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives can still get out independently. Medicaid, Medicare and private pay are accepted. Medicaid can help support a longer stay when savings may not cover the cost, while Medicare covers short term skilled care after a hospital stay rather than long term residence.
Amy Stone serves as administrator, and BD Bend III operates the community. Total nurse staffing is 5 hours and 51 minutes per resident per day, representing the daily hands on nursing time allocated to each resident.
