It's the most wonderful time of the year, and we now many of you will be spending time with loved ones. We ask that residents please let us know if they will be staying in the building, having family over to Park Regency, or going out with family for Christmas and New Year's, so we can plan how big of holiday dinners to make and, most importantly, who will be in the building to get their medications, and who we need to prepare medications for them to take with to their family's get-together. You can stop by the front desk or call (970) 461-1100 ex. 83 to let us know. Thank you.

Plans for the New Year

we are now five years old and it is time for a face lift. We are in the process of developing plans to be implemented in 2013 to include upgrade of the front lobby and lounge, add or change out pictures in common space areas, replace worn furniture, carpet, etc.

We are open to your input as we develop our 2013 plans. Please give us your ideas of what would make our environment more pleasant and user friendly. Write a note to Jerry, Carol, or Rebecca.

Staff Changes

Effective December 1st, Jerry will be the Park Regency Loveland Executive Director and the Park Regency Thornton Manager. Carol Pegg will be the new Park Regency Loveland Administrator.

On January 1, 2013, Rebecca Topscher will take over the position of Marketing/Admissions Director and Karla Romero will take over at the front desk as out new receptionist.

We expect our operations and service levels will continue or improve with these great employees in their new positions. They have been training for the new jobs for months.

Please feel free to congratulate these people on their promotions.

Park Regency provides transportation for residents to and from medical appointments, local emergency rooms, and group outings. Transportation is available as follows: Monday through Friday 8:00am to 5:00pm. (Please keep in min that Park Regency provides transportation within 10 miles of Park Regency at no cost.)

Every resident has the right to be transported to the hospital emergency room 24 hours a day. This is done by calling 911 either by the resident or a staff member or by being taken to the emergency room by a relative or Park Regency transportation if available. Likewise, a resident can return from the emergency room by a relative or if an administrative person is available, then that person will come to pick you up. Should no one be available to pick you up, both MC and McKee will call Yellow Cab for you.

If residents need transportation on weekends or holidays they should have family or friends provide the transportation. If family or friends are unavailable, then the resident should be prepared to call a local cab company or senior transport. The local Yellow Cab number is: (970) 224-2222. A one mile trip would run $5.75 plus $2.25 for each additional mile. SAINT provides door to door transportation within Lovealnd only. The Loveland SAINT number is (970) 223-8653. They provide transportation within the hours of 8:15am until 4pm. You must make an appointment at least 2 days ahead of time. A donation of at least $1.00 would be appreciated. There is also a new free transport service called Connecting Health. The University of Colorado Health and Columbine health Systems are providing ambulatory van runs on a regular basis Monday through Friday between PVH, Harmony Campus, MCR, and the Greeley Medical Clinic.

Calling All Artists!

Park Regency Premier Senior Living is pleased to announce that we are hosting an Arts and Crafts Show featuring the talents of our residents here at Park Regency, as well as those of our local community in the Loveland area.

This event is free of charge to both participants and the public. It is open to young and old alike and all forms of art and/or crafts will be considered. Some of the art forms that will be displayed include mosaics, oil paintings, water color paintings, and photography. We do ask that you keep in mind that this is a family-oriented event.

Park Regency will make the space available for all artists to display their art or crafts, but we do ask that all outside artists bring their own tables or other display needs. All participants will be able to sell their projects at this event (though you can just display), so you will also need to provide whatever you may need to collect monies from those attending to view and purchase your art.

Space is available on a first-come-first-serve basis as space will be limited to around fifty participants, so we encourage you to sign up early.

To sign up, all we need you to do is call Sue Stormo at 970-461-1100 x3157 or Jim Pegg at 720-684-7858 or 970-461-1100 x3170, give us some basic information and you're all set. It's just that simple.

August Updates and Events

5th Anniversary Party!

On Saturday, August 18th, 2012, we will celebrate Park Regency's fifth anniversary. We have been under the same management and ownership from the beginning and are very proud to be associated with Park Regency in Loveland.

The party, which includes all residents, will also be celebrating our the 70th birthday of our administrator, Jerry Bootzin, which is August 3rd. Jerry finds it hard to believe that he has reached his 70's and still has so much more to accomplish.
 
We will have a wonderful BBQ buffet from 11:30am to 1:00pm. Family members are invited at no cost for this event. However, family members should let us know if they will be joining us for the buffet. In the evening we will have a cocktail hour from 5pm followed by a dinner of appetizers and live entertainment with Cliff Spratt and Hawaiian dancers Nadine Lund and her daughter, who will perform outside on the patio, weather permitting. Dress for th entire day is casual Hawaiian. Please R.S.V.P. with the receptionist at (970) 461-1100 ex. 83.

Our beautiful flower beds:
Our flower beds, flower pots, and shrubs have been looking really good this year due to some extraordinary effort on the part of a few residents, staff, and volunteers. Pauline Jones, our resident gardener, has spent much of her own time in weeding and caring for all of our landscaping. She has made recommendations for getting some of the flowers and plants that we have now. Elden Hill, our chef, his daughter Christina, and his ex-wife Joyce, have all helped to provide flower beds and the patio water feature on their own time. All of these individuals have worked very hard to make Park Regency the pleasant environment it is. We thank them.

REMINDER:
Park Regency is a non-smoking environment. There is no smoking anywhere on Park Regency property for residents, guests, or staff.

REMINDER ABOUT MEDICATION CHANGES:
Park Regency needs to know about all medication changes, even if the resident adminsters their own medications. Many times residents to out to a physician who provides the resident or family with new prescriptions, but Park Regency is never told. When it comes to medications, please keep Park Regency informed. We need this information for our records.

New patio gate:
We will be adding an additional back gate of wrought iron to allow for large pieces of machinery to enter the patio area to work on the area of the building that faces the patio without moving anything.

Other August events:

Our Carnival has been moved to Wednesday, August 1st.

Come and join us on Wednesday, August 22, 2012, at 2pm in the activity room for John Reed Austin as he performs for our monthly birthday party. John is our resident's favorite performer and we always look forward to having him back to perform for us. We would love to have everyone come and see this wonderful entertainer. All family and friends are welcome to join us for this wonderful time.
