Bend Transitional Care sits in the Mountain View neighborhood in Bend, Oregon, at 900 NE 27th St, and serves as a skilled nursing facility with 60 beds that mostly helps people who need recovery or are moving from a hospital to longer term care, so you'll see different options for care like skilled nursing, rehabilitation with physical, speech, and occupational therapy, and respite care for when caregivers need a temporary break, and there's a real focus on high acuity care and helping residents meet personal goals. The place belongs to Avamere and works with both Pioneer Behavioral Health and Providence Health & Services, which means there's access to mental health outpatient services and extra programs like individual and group counseling, medication management, acute detox, and crisis help, with weekly psychiatry visits and regular wellness checks, and there's always licensed nurses on site day and night. They have an award for Bronze Quality from the American Health Care Association in 2022, and Medicare.gov ratings show 5 stars for staffing, quality, and overall care.
Inside, residents find private rooms with safety features like a nurse call system, a courtyard patio, a fireplace lounge, a library with computers, a gym, a therapy room, and a nurses station, along with a beauty salon, patios, on-site x-rays, and pharmacy consultants, with amenities like doormen, gated entries, pools, and barbecue spaces mentioned too, though not every feature may always be available in every part of the community, so it helps to ask. The property is considered an apartment community, and includes various kinds of living spaces-single-family homes, condos, and townhomes in the larger complex-but the senior care center focuses on apartment-style accommodations for people who need skilled care and there are rental policies in place, some utilities covered, but exact details on those fees or what's included are best to confirm directly.
Bend Transitional Care values legal protections for residents based on things like gender identity, orientation, and source of income and actively collaborates with each person's physician to shape services that fit their needs, whether it's rehabilitation therapy, help with medicine, or getting to appointments with transportation assistance. The staff speaks English, there's information about the facility online that gets updated often, and the aim stays steady on keeping residents safe, supported, and working toward more independence whenever possible, with thoughtful touches like a resident lobby, regular activities, and a friendly social environment.
