Overview of Bridgecreek Memory Care

Sapphire at Bridgecreek, previously operated as Bridgecreek Memory Care, is located at 1401 S 12th Street in Lebanon, Linn County, Oregon. The facility is classified as a residential care facility, not a skilled nursing facility. Sapphire Health Services operates the facility; the owner name is not publicly listed. Jody Burton serves as administrator. The license was issued September 7, 2000, putting the facility at approximately 25 years in operation. Licensed capacity is 58 beds across 31 apartments. Occupancy is not publicly reported. The facility claims to be the only Alzheimer’s-endorsed community in Lebanon and the surrounding area.
Inspections are conducted by the Oregon Department of Human Services, Aging and People with Disabilities via unannounced surveys. Five inspections are on record, with the most recent on February 7, 2024. The facility has accumulated 13 citations and 18 deficiencies, both well below Oregon state averages of 27 and 31 respectively. No fines and no severe citations are on record. Care types available include memory care, assisted living, specialty care, home care, hospice, transitional independent living, and rehabilitation services. While rehabilitation services are provided, the facility is not classified as a skilled nursing facility. Staffing is available 24 hours.

The Radiant Program is the facility’s signature memory care approach. According to the facility’s description, it is a sensory engagement model built around the five senses with practical tactile activities such as baking, painting, and gardening, and specific ambient and evening rituals. The program offers willing residents meaningful daily roles such as delivering mail, watering plants, and setting the table as a means of preserving identity and routine. Private and shared rooms are intentionally left unfurnished so families can bring personal items and create a familiar environment. Two separate dining areas, a daily snack cart, and individual dietary tracking support residents. Amenities include a beauty and barber shop, a large whirlpool bathtub, cable and Wi-Fi, common areas, and a courtyard with a patio and trees. A creek behind the facility provides resident duck-feeding access, a detail noted in multiple visitor accounts.

Reviews on Caring.com and A Place for Mom are predominantly positive, with staff consistently praised for knowing residents by name and maintaining high staff-to-resident ratios. Individual reviewers have flagged ongoing staffing turnover and food temperature inconsistency for rooms furthest from the kitchen. Families should ask about both directly. Samaritan Lebanon Community Hospital is approximately 1.43 miles away. The Oregon Cascades West Council of Governments serves as the area’s ADRC for Linn County, with a Lebanon office at 44 Industrial Way, Suite D (541-259-5860). The Senior Companion Program operates through Samaritan Health Services for Linn and Benton counties at 541-812-4185.

Sapphire at Bridgecreek suits families seeking Alzheimer’s and dementia care in Lebanon. The facility’s Radiant Program approach and compliance record well below state averages may appeal to families evaluating options. Families should ask administrators directly about staffing turnover, food service consistency, and pet policies before placement.

Frequently Asked Questions

What government services provide money for senior housing?

Several government programs offer financial assistance for senior housing in various countries, focusing on the United States for a broad overview:

  • Medicaid: Medicaid is a state and federally funded program that can cover the costs of nursing home care for those who meet eligibility criteria, including income and asset limits. Some states also offer Medicaid waivers that help pay for home and community-based services to prevent or delay nursing home placement.
  • Medicare: Medicare, primarily a health insurance program for people aged 65 and over, does not cover long-term housing costs. However, it can cover short-term stays in a skilled nursing facility under specific conditions following a hospital stay.
  • Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly Program: This program provides housing for low-income seniors. It offers rental assistance and access to supportive services, such as cleaning, cooking, and transportation.
  • Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) Properties: While not a direct subsidy, LIHTC encourages developers to create affordable housing. Seniors with low incomes can find reduced-rent apartments through this program.
  • State and Local Programs: Many states, counties, and cities offer their own programs to assist seniors with housing costs. These can include property tax relief programs, rental assistance programs, and programs that offer affordable senior housing options.
  • Veterans Affairs (VA): The VA offers several programs for veterans, including the Aid and Attendance benefit, which provides monthly payments to veterans who require the aid of another person, or are housebound, to help cover the cost of care in homes, nursing homes, and assisted living facilities.
  • Social Security: While Social Security primarily provides retirement income, for many seniors, these benefits are a crucial part of their budget, including housing costs.
How do you pick the homes you recommend?

Before recommending homes, we conduct a thorough evaluation on crucial factors that define a senior home such as the quality of care they provide, the reputation of the organization, and a comprehensive review of community testimonials as well. Every detail is assessed to assure that seniors are offered not just senior care options, but trustworthy homes where they can experience the care that they deserve.

Do you help families that need Medicaid?

Yes. Assisting families who need Medicaid is important to us as it plays a crucial role in offering financial support to seniors confronting economic challenges. We would like to keep essential healthcare services accessible to all community members, irrespective of one’s financial circumstances.

How much does this service cost?

We extend our services at no cost, ensuring that families and seniors can benefit from tailored assistance in their search for care and home options. Our ability to offer personalized guidance without charge to families and seniors is made possible through the support and funding from the communities with which we team up.
