GUIDE TO INDEPENDENT LIVING IN OREGON

 Oregon is part of the vast Pacific Northwestern forest and mountain range that draws in settlers from around the country. The region’s mild summers and cool, misty winters encourage seniors to enjoy an active life outdoors, with endless hiking and biking trails, camping areas and fishing spots that rival any in the nation. 


To learn more about living independently as a senior here in Oregon, CLICK HERE. 

This guide is intended as an aid for seniors in Oregon who have chosen independent living for their retirement years. It goes over likely costs, types of care and the various free and low-cost resources available to help seniors of all ability levels thrive. 


OREGON NURSING HOMES GUIDE

Nursing homes are intended to provide long-term care for seniors and people with disabilities. Specifically, these facilities are for people who don't require hospitalization but also can't safely live independently in the community. Although nursing home care is quite expensive, federal law mandates that Medicaid programs cover the cost for eligible residents in certified facilities. This guide provides cost comparisons for nursing home care in Oregon, its top cities and neighboring states and alternative levels of care. Seniors and families can also find information on financial assistance, regulations and other relevant resources.
