Altrua Holistic Care Home sits on a quiet property at 17880 Schalit Way in Lake Oswego, OR, offering a peaceful place for seniors to live with the help they need, and you'll find that folks here can spend an afternoon chatting on the porch, snacking while looking over a garden filled with flowers, or playing games with others which tends to make for a comfortable rhythm to the days. It provides many kinds of care, with a real focus on each person's health in mind, and while some residents like a little extra help with things like bathing, dressing, laundry, or getting their medicine, others need more support for memory issues like Alzheimer's or dementia, and Altrua takes care to offer memory care with trained staff, secured spaces, and regular activities aimed at keeping minds busy.
Families notice the layout makes it easy for folks with walkers or wheelchairs to move about, since there are wide, open paths and comfortably furnished rooms, and there's a choice between private rooms or one-bedrooms, depending on what's needed. Meals are homemade and served three times a day, and there are snacks and drinks handy, too. Housekeeping, transportation, and medication management all come with the care, and the staff aims to help residents stay as independent as possible, lending a hand only as much as needed.
You'll see pets like cats and dogs belong to the amenities and bring company to those who want it, and there's a family feeling to the home, with friendly staff who know each resident and try to give them personal attention. There's a full-time activity director to plan events, social clubs, games, and trips into the community, so no one has to feel bored or left out. The property includes extras such as a beauty salon, access to nearby parks, cafes, pharmacies, and doctors, so daily life can stay active and connected. Health services cover medication help, diabetic support, incontinence care, and care for those who need higher levels of medical watch.
Altrua Holistic Care Home runs as a board and care home, combining many aspects of assisted living, memory care, independent living, nursing care, and even in-home care services in a single place, and it's connected with Ironwood Holistic Care Home in the same area, both focusing on care that feels natural and loving. The goal is to offer a safe environment where residents feel at home, cared for, and encouraged to live life as fully as they can, with help always close by but independence never out of reach. Pricing varies by room type and care need, and families can find support from Senior Living Advisors to pick the best fit, plus there are reviews and guides to help make the process easier. Altrua keeps a gentle pace, aiming for comfort, community, and well-being every day.
