Overview of Bethany Home
Bethany Home offers nursing home care, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing in Waupaca, WI. Nursing home and skilled nursing care provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock. Assisted living helps with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication management, while memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for a resident at risk of wandering.
The range of care levels can suit a resident whose needs grow over time, because care can continue within the community rather than requiring a move elsewhere. Bethany Home has 100 beds, with total nurse staffing of 0 hours and 2 minutes per resident per day. That figure represents the daily nurse staffing time allocated to each resident.
Payment options include Medicare for short term skilled care after a hospital stay, Medicaid for eligible care needs, and private pay for families paying directly. Rehabilitation care and rehabilitation services support residents during a recovery focused stay, while short term rehab serves temporary recovery needs. Respite care provides a short stay when a usual caregiver needs to travel or recover. A salon and spa lets residents receive grooming services at the community, and Wednesday worship services plus on site chaplain services provide access to religious support.
A Walk Score of 58 means the area is somewhat walkable, with some errands possible on foot. A resident who no longer drives may be able to reach certain nearby destinations independently. Gregory Reichenbach serves as the administrator.
Quality ratings
The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.

Why it matters: employees work here week after week and get to know each resident's routines and needs. Agency contractors often rotate between facilities, so a higher employee share usually means more consistent care.
