Mt. Hood Adult Day Center

Mt. Hood Adult Day Center sits at 376 NE 219th Ave in Gresham, over in the Clear Creek Business Park in Building C, and it's the sort of senior day care center where folks with disabilities or certain diseases can get specialized help while their families get some relief and guidance, and you'll find it's mostly aimed at adults in need of daytime support, so there's adult day care, social activities, and programs that focus on keeping people active, both in mind and body, and sometimes even spiritually. The place runs Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm, and all the staff speak English. There's a Program Director, Nerissa Donlon, who oversees things, making sure the care plans fit what each person needs most, so everyone gets a fair chance to stay sharp and social. The Eastside Explorers program brings some structure to the day, with activities and social events, plus there's digital signage to keep everyone on track, and families can stay in the loop too through the facility's family engagement services. Staff provide information about health conditions that affect those attending, and they help families understand all the options available, walking them through care choices and setting up tours right at the center, so you can meet both the staff and the people who go there. Mt. Hood Adult Day Center falls under senior centers that offer both community-based care and daytime supervision, which can mean everything from life-enriching care for adults with disabilities to help with memory and mobility challenges, and the folks here know their way around things like memory care, skilled nursing, rehab, independent living, residential care, in-home care, and assisted living, since they've got a team with over 20 years of experience connecting seniors to what fits them best. The center carries memberships with local and national groups like the Alzheimer's Association, Senior Provider Information Network, OSRAA, and Search & Rescue. You'll also find they offer same-day service if needed, and families can get free consultation or virtual help to talk through senior placement and eldercare service options. The daily programs are designed to help each adult do as much as possible, and the whole setup is meant to be safe, stimulating, and supportive, with a caring eye on both social and health needs for seniors living in East Multnomah County and the Portland/Vancouver Metro area.
