Regency Retirement of Jackson provides both Assisted Living and Memory Care programs, allowing residents to remain on the same campus even as needs progress. The community is prepared to serve individuals who wander during the day or night, remain awake overnight, require oxygen, follow special diets, or live with diabetes managed by oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale insulin. The team is also equipped to support advanced dementia, so families do not have to seek a higher level of care elsewhere when symptoms intensify.
Round-the-clock clinical oversight underpins daily life. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on site 24 hours a day, backed by an on-call nurse for added coverage. Background-checked caregivers work awake night shifts, respond to PERS alerts, and use door alarms and wander-guard systems for safety. On-site services include podiatry visits, therapy space, an in-house geriatric psychiatry nurse practitioner, and an in-house primary care nurse practitioner, reducing off-site appointments. Staff can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and they handle transfer support for residents who use walkers, wheelchairs, or just need standby help.
Apartments can feature private bathrooms, cable service, and regular housekeeping, but specific layouts differ, so prospective residents should confirm which options are available in the suite they select. The community handles scheduled laundry, helping residents maintain a consistent wardrobe without relying on family members.
Dining is prepared to order, with snacks offered throughout the day. The culinary team accommodates gluten-free plans, vegetarian meals, mechanical-chopped or pureed textures, thickened liquids, and other physician-directed diet modifications or management strategies. This approach allows residents with medical or personal dietary requirements to eat safely without sacrificing choice.
Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, movie room, library, communal gardens, and scheduled religious services. Reliable internet access supports communication with family, and the pet-friendly policy means many residents can bring a companion animal. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
