"My daughter-in-law will move into Sellwood Senior Living. I was impressed at how bright and cheerful the facility was. The staff was very friendly. Any time a staff member passed my daughter-in-law they would greet her and introduce themselves. They invited us back for lunch. The meal was really good. The studio apartment that she will likely be in is nice and roomy, and it just hit me as a very nice facility. I was able to taste their food. The gal told me that they don't use salt, they use just spices. And it wasn't spicy to the taste, but it was very flavorful. The facility was very clean. It looks like it had been upkept. The residents were coming and going because it's in the downtown area type thing, and they seemed very lively. I encountered one other person and I asked her how she liked living there, and she said she really enjoyed it, that they were welcoming. I just got a good feeling."

"My grandmother was so well cared for and loved by the Bortes family. We were always so pleased with our visits with the family and their sweet children, we are comforted knowing she was genuinely happy during the final months of her life. "

"My wife was a resident of Arcadia Senior Living. The people were fine and everything, but like a lot of places, they ran short of help. She had a good-sized living room and bedroom. The upkeep was okay, but having less people, it probably wasn't so. There weren't enough people working, and new people were coming in all the time, and I think they didn't know what was going on. The dining area was fine. They did many things for the residents, such as exercise and games, but I think they've gone through three changes since then. I think the people who put on those activities get disappointed because not too many residents show up. She was really a good working gal. When she did all the chores to get things ready for the people, but nobody showed up, it disappointed her. That's too bad, but it's not the worker's fault."

"I toured Columbia Place Assisted Living. It's clean and comfortable-looking. I would stay there if I could. It's efficient, and the director who showed me around was very helpful. The apartments and studios that were available at the time were nice and clean. They had a kitchenette, and those were nice. They had a memory care section. They had everything figured out as to the evaluation of the patient, where they should be, and what they should do to keep active. The menu, the cooking, the setup, the activities they had for them, the courtyard, everything just looked wonderful, and the area was great."

"When we first started looking for a place for my mom, we were overwhelmed and unsure of what to expect. From the moment we walked into Markham House, something felt different. The staff greeted us with warmth, took time to answer every question, and made my mom feel seen and valued. Now, a few months in, she’s made friends, joined activities, and calls it her “new home.” Watching her smile again has been everything. We’re so thankful we found Markham House."

"A Place To Call Home IV Andresen Rd is an adult foster home. My wife has only been here a couple of weeks. We are waiting to get set up for physical therapy, so right now, they're just taking care of her meals, showers, and whatever else she needs. I come almost every day to see her. The owner of this place has four of these. I went and visited three of the four and these are very nice homes, much better than I've seen anywhere else. The staff is very friendly. The girl that's here almost all the time, Violet, does a good job of taking care of my wife. Cleanliness is excellent. They do several things. They have entertainers that come in and they've got somebody for yoga that comes in and musicians, much better than you would see anywhere else probably."

"My wife is at the Hampton & the Ashley Inn. It's a warm setting. The staff are caring. The facility is very clean and pleasant. The staff members are very helpful. If I come in and I can't find my wife, I'll ask one of the staff, and they in turn can locate her and direct me to her, so that's a nice feature. I won't say it's a huge facility, but it's large enough to spend about five minutes looking for somebody. They have several TV rooms, several rooms with tables, and facilities to do puzzles or whatever your interest is. The activities include things like exercise and games where you try to come up with the correct answers. I haven't seen anybody poorly handled or mishandled. There's maybe one patient that gets very boisterous and not cooperative at all, but they seem to manage them and are trying to be as considerate as possible to them. My wife said the meals were fine. You walk down the halls and there are pictures of all sorts of things."

"We were impressed with MorningStar Assisted Living & Memory Care of Happy Valley. I think that's my favorite for my mom. It was very clean, very bright, very open, and the people we encountered were extremely friendly. It felt like the residents had a lot of freedom as to obtaining meals when they wanted and what they wanted. The rooms that we saw were very spacious. We like the feel of it overall, and the location is really nice for us. The staff who gave us the tour was very knowledgeable. The studio was open and not staged, but we saw a one-bedroom and a two-bedroom that were staged, so you could see a layout of how furniture would fit and such, so that was helpful. They sent us home with a little pastry, which was nice. We'd like to take my mom out there and do a meal and a tour with her at some point in the near future. We saw the opportunity for residents to do everything from reading, and there's an opportunity to have your nails done and your hair done. They have a massage location, and somebody can come in and do massages. They also have games. They have an activities director. Lots of different activities and events were going on. It was also beautifully decorated for Christmas; it was very classy looking."

"L&s Adult Care Home has a new owner who runs the facility. Her name is Sarah and she was very good. The home was clean. It was old and it's a smaller home care for five adults and interestingly, it was a home for women. So for my mom, that would be fine, and I can understand where that also might be an advantage. The staff was very nice and very helpful with entertaining questions. It's a house that is run by a woman and her husband, and they are parents to one nine-month-old child and a two-year-old, and they live at the facility. So, if you're an older person and you enjoy being around kids and family, which seems to be quite pleasant, that would be awesome. You would have a built-in grandchild to interact with once in a while and nothing can help brighten our day sometimes, but having a little bit of time to maybe play together with the child. For those who don't want the occasional interruption of children or the inevitable times when the kids are tired and upset and need attention from their parents, it might create an environment where there's a little more competition for your caregivers' time. I don't think that overall, it's a negative, I think it's positive that they're a small little family, but it's the kind of thing that could be a risk and the one thing we know with kids growing up is that their needs continuously change. So, it might be something that could get better, because the kids are learning to live with older adults as well, or it may have times when it's not so optimal."

"The staff at Cascade Inn has been very kind to my sister, who can be challenging to deal with sometimes. She has made lots of friends here but does not partake in any of the activities, I have urged her to go on the outings but she won't do it. I hope she loosens up in the future and takes advantage of all the things Cascade has to offer the residents"

"My disabled Mom had maggots and flies in her room, so needless to say the housekeeping is non existent. They find a way to blame the resident for all of the staff's shortcomings. "

"My mother-in-law will move into Brookdale Oswego Springs Portland. Everyone from the front staff to the office staff to even the kitchen staff was very, very welcoming. They've been extending that hand to my mother-in-law when we went to have her see what it was like. It was wonderful. It's a small enough community that you don't feel overwhelmed with a lot of people. There are 60 rooms there, and five to six activities on the schedule every single day if you want. Everything about the place was just wonderful. Many different areas of the place have a meeting room where there are arts and crafts or singing movie night. It's a one-bedroom apartment with plenty of room. There's a courtyard all the way around the unit. In the back, there is a seating area outside, which is in a lovely forest. Inside, there is a library where they also show movies. There's a common room where they have exercises and games and all kinds of things in that room, different tastes, etc. There are several of those rooms throughout the place. Everywhere you look, you see green trees and flowers. We had a meal, and it was delicious. There were choices on the menus, so you didn't have one thing for each part of the meal. You had choices within the menu to make, depending on your taste."
