Life Care Services

The Residency is a two-story retirement community that was built in 1992. It is situated on approximately 19 acres on Circle Drive just west of Monument Mall. It is close to shopping, banking and restaurants.

Life care can protect you and your hard earned assets from the ever increasing costs of Long Term Care. You can live independently but have the assurance of knowing quality health care is on the premises should you need it. When you need nursing care you just move down the hall, not to another facility. The one time entrance fee is similar to paying a one time Long Term Care Insurance policy premium with no elimination period. Your only financial obligation is the entrance fee and the monthly fee. When using the care center, the only additional costs are for additional meals and supplies. Also a portion of your entrance fee and monthly fees are considered medical expenses for your taxes.

Independent Living

There are a total of 93 Independent apartments. Square footage varies from 660 to 1500 square feet, with a variety of floor plans. The apartment is yours to decorate, flooring is furnished, and kitchen appliances are provided. Utilities, cable TV, housekeeping, one meal a day, maintenance, grounds care, scheduled transportation, Emergency Nurse Call Alert and much more are included in your monthly service fee. Garages and guest rooms are available at additional fees.

You are encouraged to live an active lifestyle, and the only thing that needs to change is your address. Many social and recreational activities are offered including gardening, exercise, music, Bible Studies, Vespers, cards, and games. There are also a variety of community activities with area churches, theatres, civic organizations and museums including North Platte Valley Museum and the Farm & Ranch Museum. There are always opportunities for volunteerism, a number of residents volunteer at the museums and Regional West Medical Center.

The Residency is just across the street from Monument Mall with a six-plex movie theater, department stores, and specialty shops and only minutes from downtown Scottsbluff. Golfers can choose from three 18-hole courses and many of the surrounding smaller communities have nine-hole courses. If you enjoy fishing, there are a number of lakes nearby.


Apartment Health Services

When Independant residents need a little help to remain in their apartments for a while longer, we have the program of Assistance in Living. This program is operated through our Home Health Department under that license so we meet all federal, state, and insurance regulations.

Assistance in your apartment could include cueing for meals, assessment and set up of medications, assistance with bathing, assistance with mobility and physical therapy, setting up of dental and medical appointments, change of dressing, education for nutrition and wellness. They will also take vital signs and do an assessment if a resident does not feel well.

These services are covered under your Life Care Occupancy agreement, and have no additional charge except for meals and supplies.

Assisted Living

Since some seniors need some help, but do not need the full nursing care, Assisted Living offers residents another step in their retirement living. When you are a Life Care resident, you may live in our assisted living wing at the Villa or Vista with no additional charge except for extra meals and supplies. You are still living in an apartment, but more help is available to you. Assisted Living residents have their own dining room, bathing room, activities room and nurses station.

We also offer Assisted Living to seniors that are not in our Life Care System. This is on a private pay month to month basis. There is no entrance fee. Private Pay Assisted Living residents have access to the Health Care Center at the Private Pay Rate.

Health Care Center

For any future medical needs, our certified, licensed Health Care Center, known as the Med Center is equipped with 21 beds. Our goal is always to provide you with quality care in order that you may return to your own apartment as quickly as possible. The only cost to you for the extra care is two additional meals daily and routine medical expenses. You may continue using your own family physician or use our medical director, a community physician, who is on call 24 hours a day. We contract with Synertx Rehabilitation, to bring you physical, occupational, and speech therapy. We also accept Private Pay Residents.
