Anna's and Augustin Gligan AFH, also called Hillside Senior Care and Ivy Court Senior Living, sits at 6111 SE 43rd Ave in Portland, Oregon, and offers care in a quiet residential neighborhood that feels homey and calm, with families often saying the staff is kind and the food is good, while the flowers in the backyard and the big back porch give residents a place to sit, snack, and chat together when it's warm out. The facility can take care of seniors in small, family-owned settings, with adult foster homes offering 4 beds and a residential care facility with 16 beds, and staff there help out with daily activities including bathing, grooming, eating, laundry, and housekeeping, and they handle medication and arrange transportation or help with other chores when needed. The home serves three home-cooked meals every day, and staff also arrange games, visits from family, and activities so folks can keep busy and enjoy some company, and there are extra rooms for movies or games where residents can socialize if they want.
Rooms come with private bathrooms, allowing for a bit more comfort and privacy, and folks with pets, like cats or dogs, can bring them along, which some seniors appreciate, and safety features in every apartment, along with a 24/7 security system and keyless entry, help keep everybody safe. Staff help with dressing, personal care, and medication management, and nurses are on hand for medical support, with on-site hospice care, diabetic care, high acuity care, and even help for those who need memory or Alzheimer's care, so families don't have to move their loved one elsewhere as needs change. The place keeps things peaceful and quiet for seniors who find a lot of noise distracting, and with open hallways and wide walking paths, folks using walkers or wheelchairs can get around pretty well. The residential care homes under their names, like Elder Garden Care Home, Autumn Leaf Adult Care Home, and Cedar Mill AFH, specialize further with options like independent living, long-term stays, and even therapies for speech or movement in a dedicated therapy room.
Staff provide help around the clock and stick around every day of the week, so someone's always there if a problem pops up, and they work closely with each person-sometimes tailoring meals and plans for vegetarian or kosher diets or making sure the care matches what the doctor ordered. The home lets people keep living as independent as possible, but caregivers pitch in as much or as little as residents need, which families say makes it easier on everyone and gives the primary caregivers at home a break. People can expect structured activities-educational, social, or just for fun-to give their days some variety, and group trips out into the community are another perk for those who like to get out and about every so often. They allow both temporary care, for recovery or caregiver breaks, and permanent care for those needing support day to day, and their strong rating-about 4.6 stars-shows most residents and families feel satisfied with the help and living situation provided. Smoking isn't allowed inside, so it stays clean indoors, and the calm, respectful approach to daily living keeps the atmosphere friendly, safe, and dignified for all residents.
