  SRG Spring Ridge

  She's been there two years. It is closer to where I live and it is just gorgeous. It's really nice. She gets two meals a day and they have lots of social activities. They have transportation to get her to her doctors' appointments.

  Trilogy Home Care

  I've had several agencies, and these people are the best that I've ever had. Great management, great people. If you have a personality conflict with your care-giver, they will make sure to work with you until the right person for you is found. Their billing is more than reasonable. They are dependable, bend over backwards to be fair. Never had a problem, a while now.

  They were very good. I found they had several qualified people and I was very pleased with my interaction with them. The quality of the care givers they had really stood out to me.

  CALAROGA TERRACE

  Overall, the care has been excellent--the care-givers are friendly and have established friendships with my mother. Also, Calaroga's management has been responsive when there is an issue about billing (which has occured rarely) or when I have needed assistance in dealing with hospital staff. Initially, my mother moved into an apartment on the and quot;unassisted livingand quot; floors. However, as she has become increasingly frail, she has now transitioned to her own studio apartment on the assisted living floor. Still, my mother says she feels both independent and well cared for. Although she no longer participates in the numerous scheduled outings, she is very happy Calaroga has two libraries on site and a shuttle bus for shopping trips. During my mother's five years in Portland, I have had the opportunity to get a client's view of several assisted living places in Portland. I have found Calaroga to be the best overall provider of care in a friendly, engaging environment. (It is important to note, however, that Calaroga does not provide skilled nursing services.)

  CALAROGA TERRACE

  They were outstanding. She was there for eight years and we found the place and took her there and brought her up in California and took her around for the tour and were (8:16) __ that is why she lived there. They were very quick to respond and very easily got exactly the apartment that she wanted and she was so pleased with them for eight years. Everybody there was absolutely professional and wonderful. I can't find fault with any of them. They screened the people so carefully and all the staff and the caregivers and so forth were extremely helpful and professional.

  THE HEIGHTS AT COLUMBIA KNOLL

  Moved my mom in to an apartment, the first time out of her own home. She really enjoys the nice spacious rooms, terrific accessible bathroom and kitchen. The food is great, I enjoy eating there myself. She enjoys the residents, comfortable with their social interaction. The staff is polite. The facility is beautiful and bright. There are lots of activities to participate in if they are interested.

  Larry Fein started medication management services for my 88-year-old uncle about seven months ago.  My uncle is able to live in an independent retirement living facility, but his dementia makes it impossible for him to be responsible for taking his prescribed medication on his own.  Larry has been a life saver for us, enabling us to not have to spend an hour round trip driving to manage my uncle's medication needs.  He was able to help us set up a weekly medication box which my uncle only needs to use once a day, and it has worked out very well.   With Larry's extensive experience, I know we will be able to utilize his services more as my uncle's condition worsens.  He is very professional and knowledgeable, and we would recommend him highly.
