Cascades of Bend Retirement Community

The staff at Cascades of Bend are caring and attentive. I had to quickly move my Mom from out of state, and they went above and beyond to assist in the process. The activities coordinator is great at her role. Front desk is friendly. The caregivers and overall staff pay attention and communicate well! I visit 1-2x a week and feel a real sense of community with the residents. They could often use extra staff and/or maybe server training for meals to help timeliness and flow of service, but overall a great place!

We can't say enough great things about everyone at Cascades of Bend. When your parent gets to that stage where they start needing help, you feel guilt, sadness, and even anger. Starting the process of moving them feels like betrayal. We felt like we were just putting mom into storage, like she was an inconvenience to us. We toured multiple places, but the staff here just felt better. After moving in, that intuition became a reality. We were amazed on day one that most of the staff had already learned her name. They all did little things to make her feel welcome. Like the lady with the prescriptions who always remembered mom liked a coffee with skim milk, or the front desk people who always smiled and said hi. Everyone here genuinely cared about making people feel welcome and nurtured. Moving mom out of her home nearly broke my heart, but moving her into Cascades mended it. She instantly took to her new home, smiling and making friends on day one. We couldn't have asked for a better place.
