Find Residential Care Home Communities Near Portland, OR

Answer a few questions to get personalized results

Who are you searching for?

Residential care homes in Portland may appeal to seniors who value smaller, more close-knit communities and many opportunities for socialization. Portland care homes typically take in fewer residents, meaning older adults know each resident in the home and develop strong friendships.

Older-adult care homes vary more than other options for senior living in Portland, so families can choose from a wide range of prices, amenities, and services. A Place for Mom will work with you to understand the cost of care homes. From there, we’ll help you find the right fit, whether you’re staying on a budget or searching for luxury retirement communities.

We are also serving Assisted Living facilities in surrounding neighborhoods like Buckman Community Association, Grant Park and Hollywood.
You may also consider nearby communities such as Vancouver, Forest Grove and Beaverton.

What are care homes?

Residential care homes are houses in residential neighborhoods that are equipped, adapted, and staffed to care for a small number of residents, usually between two and 10.

Although residential care homes vary significantly depending on the community, services usually include:

  • Help with personal care
  • Medication management
  • Mobility assistance
  • Nutritious meals
  • Social activities and outings
  • Housekeeping
  • Laundry
