About Lydia's House
Lydia's House sits on a peaceful, landscaped 275-acre campus with gardens, walking paths, and areas for relaxing outside, which can be nice if you like nature and quiet places. Lydia's House offers a full range of senior living choices, including independent living homes and apartments, assisted living help, board and care homes, and skilled nursing support for those with more complex medical needs, so folks can stay in one place even as their needs change, and there's also a dedicated area for memory care called Lydia's House that helps people with dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Independent seniors can join in social activities and use resort-style extras like a dining room with all-day, allergy-sensitive, or diabetes-friendly meal plans, plus there's a beauty parlor, library, fitness and wellness schedules, and reading rooms, along with things like housecleaning and laundry, so people don't have to worry about chores.
The assisted living part has semi-private rooms, 1-bedroom, and studio options, and a call system for help at any time, supporting folks who need help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, grooming, taking medications, transfers, and personal care. Meals are home-cooked three times a day, and there's flexibility for special dietary needs, so residents can usually stay comfortable and healthy. Lydia's House takes care of transportation to doctor appointments and errands, helps out with non-ambulatory care, medication routines, and even assists with moving in. There's always someone around to help, especially in the memory care area, where they provide extra supervision, locked and secured environments to keep residents safe, and memory-focused programs like music or animal therapies, mental wellness sessions, and activities suited for those living with dementia or mild cognitive impairment.
The memory care community at Lydia's House is certified to serve up to 36 seniors, with both private and semi-private rooms, and its staff is trained for dementia care and skilled nursing. There's a holistic approach with physical, occupational, and speech therapies, along with short-term rehabilitation for those who've had injuries or hospital stays, and people have access to mental wellness and wellness programs, including things like craft classes, movie nights, arts, games, and resident-run clubs, which helps create a welcoming place for neighbors to connect. The secured memory care spaces remain separated from other parts of the campus, and there's 24-hour supervision for peace of mind.
Lydia's House feels homelike, aiming to preserve individual respect and dignity, with experienced caregivers and nurses who focus on each person's needs, whether that means help with everyday living or more specialized support due to Alzheimer's or dementia. Residents have furnished rooms, reliable emergency systems, and amenities like Wi-Fi, cable TV, barber shop, and even housekeeping with dry cleaning available. There are also services for hospice, respite care, and dementia waiver support, and prices for memory care start at $4,500 per month, depending on care level and amenities, with payment options including private pay, long-term care insurance, and Veterans Aid and Attendance. Lydia's House holds a license from Oregon's Department of Social Services, and it does its best to provide a comfortable, caring place where people can live as independently and safely as possible, surrounded by supportive staff and a well-kept setting.
