Tender Touch Adult Care

Tender Touch Adult Care sits on Northwest Somerset Drive in Beaverton, Oregon, and is a small residential care home with room for no more than 10 people, and the owner lives right there, tending to daily needs and making sure everyone feels at home, and while different states may call this kind of place an Adult Foster Home, Assisted Living Home, or Personal Care Home, what people get here is personal care with a familiar pace. Men and women are welcome, and children can live in the home too, but pets aren't allowed and there's no vaping, smoking, alcohol, recreational drugs, marijuana, or CBD oil allowed on site, keeping things simple and focused on comfort. Staff provide help with bathing, grooming, meals, housekeeping, diabetes care, cancer care, Parkinson's care, Alzheimer's and dementia care, feeding and tubes, wound care, and even support for stroke recovery and paralysis, plus mental health and colostomy bag care, with a 24-hour caregiver always in the home, so there's support day and night, including night staff and an alarm system at the doors for residents who may wander. Residents get to eat meals prepared by chefs and meal planners, and you can choose single or shared rooms with options like private or shared bathrooms or accessible showers, and the house itself has indoor and outdoor common spaces including a fenced backyard, so you can enjoy fresh air and a bit of sunshine, or maybe watch TV either in your own room or in a shared space. Nurses are on staff, a doctor is on call, there's a Hoyer lift, a call button system, and transportation is available for doctor visits or trips out to shop, and they'll even provide respite care or accept hospice, so folks can stay through their last days if needed. There's a big focus on comfort and enjoyment, with activities happening in the house and outside, though pets can't come along, but residents can stay connected with WiFi internet. Tender Touch Adult Care doesn't post prices, but accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, and welcomes Providence Elder Place residents as well, all while offering board and care options along with memory care, nursing support, and independent living for seniors who want some independence but appreciate extra help and services that fit their own needs.
