THE RUMORS ARE WRONG

RUMOR #1

Staff Notebook

REGENT STREET ASSISTED LIVING is the most
expensive assisted living in the area.

WRONG. Accommodations at Regent Street begin as
little as $3265.00 per month for a private room with
private bath.

RUMOR #2

REGENT STREET ASSISTED LIVING charges addi-
tional fees for all services.
WRONG. All prices include assistance with bathing,
grooming, dressing, medication management, inconti-
nence care, assistance to the dining room and activi-
ties, three meals daily, snacks, transportation to
appointments, linens and housekeeping.

RUMOR #3

REGENT STREET ASSISTED LIVING does not have
medical personnel in the building.
WRONG. Regent Street has licensed nurses on duty,
in the building twenty-four hours a day, seven days
week. During the day shift there is not only a Nurse
Manager but Floor Nurse as well. Therapy can be
arranged, hospice can be brought in.

RUMOR #4

REGENT STREET ASSISTED LIVING is very formal
and much too fancy.
WRONG. Yes, Regent Street is very beautiful but the
atmosphere is warm, comforting and secure. All the
services are designed to make everyone feel a little
pampered and most importantly, cared for by a dedi-
cated and well trained staff.
