Assisted Living* Options
Residential care is Oregon’s licensed term for what you may know as assisted living. In our residential care neighborhoods at Touchmark in the West Hills, residents receive customized support to help them with day-to-day tasks. Our friendly and highly trained professional care team focuses on each day’s potential, rather than on any perceived limitations. Our Full Life Wellness & Life Enrichment Program™ calendar presents abundant opportunities to increase strength and flexibility, participate in a favorite hobby, explore new terrain, and enjoy a good time in excellent company. Our spacious and lovely studio, one-, and two-bedroom apartment homes in Portland, Oregon, are private and comfortable, with one or two bathrooms, kitchens or kitchenettes, large closets, and an individual emergency response system to give you added peace of mind. Let us take care of the housekeeping and utilities while you relax.

Centralized Nursing Support
We have launched a new staffing program that benefits residents, team members, and families in our community. Licensed nurses overseen by the Clinical Services team at the Touchmark Central Office are on-call to support your local nursing team between 5 pm and 5 am every day.
These team members are:
- Trained in evaluative care as well as all Touchmark policies and procedures
- Licensed in all states where Touchmark communities are located
- Equipped to advise and provide direct recommendations for staff on-site when community nurses are unavailable
- Available for phone and video consultations with team members and residents as needed
- In regular communication with the Health Services team in each community
- Compiling data and performing audits to improve quality assurance
- Able to access each community’s EMAR system
Our goal is to provide more comprehensive nursing coverage for residents and reduce community team member stress. Community contacts/nurses remain a vital part of this process. Any after-hours support is conveyed to local nurses to assist with continuously coordinated care, and local nurses are available should the need arise.
