    Homey attentive staff, excellent care

    I live here and highly recommend it - the loving, professional staff provide 24-hour, one-on-one care in a small, homey community. My large room has a private bath, meals are home-cooked and healthy, the place is spotless with daily housekeeping, and management/owner are attentive and organized (they even helped with our move). My only safety concern is the lack of a gate; otherwise it's reasonably priced and an excellent place.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment across the reviews is strongly positive. Multiple reviewers emphasize the facility’s caring, professional and loving staff, and many recommend Blue Sky Adult Care Home to others. The small-community model is repeatedly praised for enabling one-on-one attention; reviewers report 24-hour caregiver coverage, residents who are thriving, minimal falls, and an environment where individual needs appear to be noticed and addressed. The facility is described as reasonably priced and highly recommended by families and visitors.

    Care quality and staff: Reviews consistently highlight respectful, kind and attentive caregivers and management. Several comments refer to the owner and management as organized, gentle and hands-on, with up-to-date medication records and well-maintained documentation. Staff are described as professional and caring, willing to answer questions and provide tours, and helpful during moves (including packing assistance). The small size of the home is framed positively — it fosters individualized attention and stronger caregiver-resident relationships.

    Facilities and cleanliness: Physical accommodations receive strong praise. Multiple reviewers note large, homey rooms with private bathrooms, nicely maintained grounds, and an overall gorgeous facility feel. Cleanliness is repeatedly called out as a strength, with daily housekeeping provided. The combination of private baths, roomy living space and tidy common areas contributes to the “like living in a nice house” impression expressed by several families.

    Dining and activities: Food quality is a recurrent positive: reviewers report home-cooked, healthy meals and generally “good food.” Activities are available, though descriptions indicate they tend toward simpler options (puzzles and games). Staff-driven socialization is mentioned, which suggests staff engage residents in activities, but the programming is described as basic rather than extensive or highly structured.

    Management, operations and family experience: Management and owner involvement are noted as attentive and organized; one review specifically praises perfect records and medication management. Families appreciated practical help with moving and packing, and reviewers mention supportive family relationships with staff. The facility is responsive during tours and questions, although one reviewer noted the owner was not home during a visit — a minor but repeatable observation for prospective visitors.

    Notable patterns and concerns: The most explicit safety concern raised is the lack of a gate at the property entrance — one review flags this as a point of caution. Activity offerings are described as modest, which may suit residents who prefer quiet, low-key engagement but could disappoint those seeking robust programming. Several reviews observe that some residents have limited ability to communicate; this is likely descriptive of the resident population rather than a criticism of care, but it is important context for families to understand the social dynamic. Availability appears limited: a wait list is mentioned, indicating demand exceeds immediate openings.

    Conclusion: Blue Sky Adult Care Home presents as a small, well-kept, family-style adult care home with strong staff engagement, high cleanliness, private and spacious rooms, home-cooked meals, and attentive management. It is especially well-suited to families seeking individualized attention in a home-like setting and those who value organized medication and record-keeping. Prospective families should weigh the modest activity programming and the lack of a gated entrance against these strengths, and be prepared for limited availability due to demand.

    About Blue Sky Adult Care Home

    Blue Sky Adult Care Home in Portland, Oregon, looks after just five residents, which means everyone can get more one-on-one care and attention, and you'll often find the caregivers stopping by several times a week to check in, sometimes telling residents they love them, making things feel homelike, and most rooms come with a private bathroom and the whole place stays clean with daily or as-needed housekeeping, plus regular showers or sponge baths, so everyone's comfortable. Blue Sky Adult Care Home is managed by Purple Door, LLC, and the staff include nurses and caregivers available day and night to help with everything from dressing and bathing to feeding, even if someone needs help managing a feeding tube or colostomy, and if someone's got diabetes and can manage it mostly themselves, staff still help with injections or monitoring as needed too. People who might wander or have memory problems can stay here, as the care team knows how to help those with Alzheimer's or dementia-you'll see them providing memory care and activities like puzzles and simple games that are easier to manage, and if a resident acts out physically or needs extra behavior support, the staff know how to handle that in a respectful and supportive way. The place serves healthy, home-cooked meals all day, with options for special diets like vegetarian, kosher, vegan, low-sodium, or gluten-free, and there's even room service, along with transportation and parking, plus pets might be allowed if someone checks first. Blue Sky Adult Care Home offers private one-bedroom memory care rooms, and residents always have access to safe outdoor areas and indoor spaces both set up for wheelchairs and other needs, like accessible showers, and there are transfer supports using mechanical lifts or hands-on help, whatever's needed. Visiting nurses and therapists can come in, and staff are on hand to remind residents about medications and daily activities, helping with things like toileting or grooming as often as needed, which is important if someone has incontinence or needs help with reminders. Amenities include an on-site beauty salon for regular grooming, devotional services for residents who want them, and support for mental health if someone's struggling with emotions. Blue Sky Adult Care Home is reviewed well-residents and families have given high ratings and left feedback which keeps the staff accountable, and the facility has transparent information about its prices and availability, so families don't have to wonder about the details. This smaller community helps people feel supported and attended to, whether they need hospice, memory care, assistance with daily life, or a friendly place to call home.
