Aspen Ridge Memory Care

My mom was in Aspen Memory Care for over a year. She had the best care not just on her good days but even on her worst days. The love and compassion they have for the residents is more than I could ask for. I didn't have to worry about her I knew she was being taken care of.

Go in with realistic expectations. The staff is caring and patient, far more than others in Bend. The facility may be older but it's nice, clean, and the support and compassion of the staff (from the very to on down) make this an exceptional experience in such a stressful phase of life.

My mother at 97 was at Aspen Ridge. The kindness of the entire staff was exemplary. During her passing, they kept the quiet sacred space, visited her often. Even the director kissed her on the forehead. They took care of every detail to make our life easier including a smooth relationship with hospice. After her passing, some of the staff went in one by one to say a prayer and let her know how much she meant to them. many of the staff even came up to me to tell me that my mother changed their lives by her example. The love for my mother was beyond words. I cannot express enough how wonderful the staff is as Aspen Ridge memory care.

My father lived at Aspen Ridge Memory Care in Bend, OR, for 6 years. In his time with this organization, I always felt content that he was part of their family. Memory care is a difficult business, but under the current management team, I have witnessed an esprit de corps within the ranks that allows a coordinated effort to provide quality care for its residents. The Activities Director strives to provide program enrichment and excursions to those residents able to participate. When Dad passed in October 2018, the compassion and care to our family was exemplary.

I was looking for a place for my husband to go and this place was the only one that had availability. We were a little hesitant at first but it’s been a great experience. The staff is amazing, they couldn’t be any better. Every time I talk with them, they seem knowledgeable and easy to communicate with. The facility is pretty nice and new and it’s always clean, so there aren’t any smells or anything like that. [Removed], the activities director, is amazing! Not only do they do in house activities, like music and games, but she actually takes them out too. They’ve gone to places like the movies, museums, restaurants, ice cream shops, and coffee shops. I know there are more than those too. I really wish it wasn’t as expensive as it is, but I would recommend this place to others for their loved ones.

Dad is doing well at this community. He likes the food and participates in some of the daily activities. The community is clean and the grounds are well maintained. The staff have been encouraging and we have good communication with them. This community is in a good location for us and I would recommend it.

I am hospice volunteer who visits their community regularly. I have seen a dedication to the people living here and a professionalism that deeply impresses me. It is a pleasure and an honor to visit here.

This community was nice and I did like the staff. The room was not as big as we were needing. They had offered me a meal and it did seem to be appealing. I liked how the community was clean and taken care of. I would recommend this community for families wanting good care for a loved one.

Mom is happy there. The facility is beautiful and well-maintained. There are a lot of activities throughout the day. The price is more than I had hoped, but they do a good job of taking care of Mom.

Aspen Ridge was very accommodating given the circumstances of my fathers needs. They accepted him on a very short notice. We arrived close to midnight after a very trying and long trip to their facility and the director was there to meet us and get us settled in. Making for a nice transition from his previous facility.

My mom was in the Alzheimer's unit there. My mom was lucky; she was always happy and got good care. They have assisted living there too which we thought about for my sister but I heard some remarks and my sister knew some people there who said it's a lot like high school sometimes. A lot of patients or residents have little groups and some of of them are not so friendly. The memory care was good for my mom but we didn't think the assisted living would be the right place for my sister.
