Rackleff Place sits at 655 SW 13th Ave. in Canby, Oregon and is a smaller assisted living community, with 25 studio and one-bedroom apartments on a single story, so it feels cozy and neighborly and folks can get around without using stairs or elevators, and every unit has a private bath, a kitchenette, and its own telephone, so there's a bit of privacy and independence which is good, plus the doors lock and you can bring your own decorations to make the space feel more like home, whether you're there for independent living, need some help with memory care, post-hospital rehab, or just want an easier way to keep up with daily routines. The Life Lease program helps with peace of mind since the staff handles maintenance and security while you get to focus on living, and the staff always gets called caring, helpful, and friendly, which matters because people want to feel welcome and safe, especially if they're dealing with medical needs or memory issues. There are different levels of help, from basic housekeeping and meal preparation-meals are served in a dining room and special diets get attention-to hands-on support with bathing, dressing, medication, managing chronic conditions or memory loss, or getting around, plus there's a 24-hour call system and supervision for safety, especially for people who might wander.
Everything's on one level, and there's an interior courtyard and walking paths that make it easy to get outside, enjoy the fresh air, or garden a little, while inside there's a fireplace for relaxing and a community arts room where folks can join in on resident-run activities, movie nights, or use the ready barber/salon for a haircut. Wheelchairs can get everywhere and there's always move-in coordination and help figuring out care needs, and staff provide services in English. Clinical support includes pharmacy services and rehab for people recovering from hospital stays, plus hospice and respite care if needed, and the place is fully licensed as an Assisted Living Facility, managed by Prestige Senior Living, which takes care of the rules. People there say the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff works to make sure residents keep as much independence and choice as possible, with care plans that fit each person's needs, whether that means specialized memory support or support with daily life. Meals, community activities, emergency alerts and even space for gardening or arts, all add up to a place that's meant to meet a lot of needs in one spot, with a steady focus on dignity, comfort, and letting people live life as they like.
