Question 1

What type of care does Park Regency Thornton offer?

Accepted Answer

We provide long-term and short-term assisted living, as well as memory care for residents with most stages of Alzheimer’s or dementia. We have a well-trained team of professionals dedicated to serving all the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of our residents. Our goal is to provide a stimulating environment where residents get to know each other and our team by name.

Question 2

What makes Park Regency Thornton unique?

Accepted Answer

We have deep roots in Colorado. Our parent company, Bethesda Senior Living Communities, is committed to long-term care. While some companies view their facilities as profit-making investments that may be bought and sold when convenient, we are a small, not-for-profit community, meaning our investment is in our residents—now and in the future.

Question 3

When is assisted living appropriate?

Accepted Answer

Assisted living becomes appropriate when an otherwise active senior begins having a little trouble getting proper nutrition, maintaining the household or personal care routines, or remembering to take medications. We are staffed 24 hours a day with licensed nurses, medication aides and friendly support team. Together, we ensure our assisted living residents have the help they need when they need it. We provide our residents with maximum privacy and autonomy in an attentive and caring environment.

Question 4

Why not a nursing home?

Accepted Answer

Nursing homes are not the catch-all solution they once were considered to be, primarily because most people do not want to be in one. Nursing homes are designed to provide patients with ongoing, intensive medical and nursing services. And to do this well they must be both intrusive and pricey. For seniors whose health has deteriorated to the point where acute medical intervention is required regularly, the cost and restrictive living environment of a nursing home begins to make sense. But there’s a huge stretch of road between retirement and the nursing home. Our residents enjoy active, productive lives with just the right amount of support 24 hours a day. They can discover their independence, their tastes, their hobbies and their worth, while getting the support they need when they need it.

Question 5

Does Park Regency Thornton work with someone with dementia (or Alzheimer's disease)?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Seniors in the beginning stages of dementia may be most comfortable in our assisted living community. Those with more advanced needs may find our memory care community a better option. Our memory care community provides the most intensive care and supervision, as well as specialized activities to engage our residents’ minds. We offer both private and companion apartments in a 24-hour secure environment. Our compassionate team works with each resident and family to create an environment where residents can succeed and thrive while maintaining as much familiarity as possible.

Question 7

Do you charge a flat fee or are there hidden costs and extra fees?

Accepted Answer

We offer a variety of resources and financial options to help assist seniors and their families to be able to afford the retirement lifestyle that meets their expectations. Our fees are easy to understand, and never hidden. The apartment monthly fee includes: restaurant-style dining, laundry and maintenance, activities and wellness programs, and some transportation. Most residents will pay an additional fee based on their level of care assessment. These fees cover the cost of the additional support their needs require, including: nursing, medication management or administration, bathing, dressing and other personal services. And, residents who outlive their savings may be able to remain in our assisted living with the help of Innovage, a Medicaid managed care provider. We look forward to walking through how our fees will work for you or your loved one during your visit.

Question 8

Do you allow pets?

Accepted Answer

It wouldn’t be home without your furry, finned or feathered friend. We encourage residents to bring their faithful companions, and we offer referrals for services such as dog walking.
