The Regency Skilled Nursing and Therapy, located in Shawnee, Oklahoma, is a care facility that offers specialized services primarily in the field of nursing home care. As a certified participant in both Medicare and Medicaid since January 31, 2007, the facility provides an array of care services designed to meet the diverse needs of its residents. Currently accommodating 87 occupants, the facility aims to support individuals requiring various levels of nursing care, including long-term residential care, short-term rehabilitation, and respite services. The Regency is equipped with a licensed team of nurses and therapists to deliver comprehensive medical support, which includes physical therapy, occupational therapy, and access to Saint Louis University Hospital's specialized services.
The facility emphasizes the importance of rehabilitation in its care routine, offering physical and occupational therapy to aid residents in achieving greater mobility and independence. It also includes amenities such as a barber/beauty salon for residents' convenience and offers resident and family counseling to ensure emotional support and effective communication. However, feedback from residents and families suggests mixed experiences; while some praise the caring staff and improved recovery outcomes, numerous reports highlight concerns about hygiene, unresponsiveness, and frequent staff miscommunication.
Despite the criticism, The Regency continues to provide care through a structured framework. Professional medical and therapeutic support is available, albeit within an environment where the perceived quality and reliability of care services appear variable. The facility’s staffing and management practices, as pointed out in several reviews, may impact the overall resident experience significantly. Efforts to address these challenges may help enhance the quality and safety of care for all residents potentially.
