Testimonials

“ElderHealth & Living Memory Village is a remarkable facility that provides quality memory care in a family environment. We were introduced to ElderHealth & Living thru the Day Care program known as The Club. My lovely bride enjoyed the fellowship of other memory challenged participants. The Club offered a wide range of activities and field trips. Her participation in The Club instilled a new life in her daily activities.
As it became more difficult to care for my wife at home we explored ElderHealth & Living Memory Village residential program. We are currently in our third year of residential living at ElderHealth & Living Memory Village. The quality of care far exceeds our expectations. Residents are treated with respect and compassion by well trained staff. Our family is so pleased that a Memory Care of this quality is available in the Eugene/Springfield area. 
What an amazing, awesome staff ElderHealth & Living has, from the point of view of a family member of one of the residents, I know firsthand what I am talking about because I’m there every other day.”

“My husband had Parkinsons psychosis (hallucinations, paranoia and delusions) in addition to the tremors and other issues of digestion and breathing. After caring for him at home, we reached a point where I could no longer do it by myself. The best thing that ever happened for us was to find ElderHealth & Living and get the best staff we could have ever imagined. Nine plus workers did what we had been trying to do every day. My husband felt secure for the first time in a long time. He called the gentlemen in his house his fraternity brothers and they all bonded together to take care of each other. They enjoyed meals together and going to the Recreation Center where they played games and listened to our favorite oldies. Live music in the house was a real plus because his family were all performing musicians and it took him back in time to happier times. Having the meals cooked on site from scratch was a pure delight for him. Thanksgiving and Christmas were special times at the house, in addition to birthdays and anniversaries. Everyone enjoyed any excuse to have a party and have fun. But the best part was the caring staff and how they allowed my husband to do for himself whatever he could still do. Staff supported his dignity to the very end. Placing my husband at ElderHealth was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life but it turned out to be a blessing, for both of us. ElderHealth rescued our sanity and allowed us to be husband and wife again.”

“I am so thankful I found ElderHealth and Living when the time came to find residential memory care for my mother. Every member of the staff I’ve ever encountered has been absolutely amazing. I appreciate their patience and skill in helping me engineer this challenging transition, but most of all I am continually floored by their collective efforts to get to know mom and tailor her activities and experiences to what they know she will love and respond to. Every week, I encounter a new reason to be awed by the dedication, professionalism, and kindness of the caregivers and support staff at EHL. Mom is thriving thanks to their compassionate care, and I am eternally grateful for the quality they have added to her life– and mine!”
– Jennifer Phillips, Family Member

“I can’t say enough about the quality of care my dad receives at EH&L. Small group homes, healthy meals, and appropriate activities are some of the many benefits to living there. The staff at EH&L know memory loss and the fact that all residents have some form of it makes this type of living arrangement ideal. The caregivers are enthusiastic, positive and caring to everyone, including the residents’ families.”
– Kathi Bean, Family Member

“If you need a place that you can count on to treat your loved one as good or better as you, then ElderHealth is the place.
We visited over four other assisted living/memory care locations in Eugene/Springfield before picking ElderHealth and our initial decision was spot on, ElerHealth is the best! Their staff is consistently loving, attentive, and truly care about the well being of their residents.
I have dropped in at all random times, weekday/weekend and my dad is always happy, ready to go and loaded with all his medication for the day.
The staff is very interactive with the residents and my dads condition/health has actually remarkably improved based on the care he has received at ElderHealth.”
– Hobie Anderson, Family Member

“We are so very grateful and blessed to have our mother here. She struggled in several other care facilities around town and it was only when she was able to go live at EHL that her chronic urinary tract infections cleared up! This was a game changer for her and her memory and behavior, no joke in our elderly population. Being properly cleaned when she toileted meant a clearer mind and all the aggression she felt was gone. She was like a different person. At EHL simple things like REAL food (NOT canned from Sysco), loving pets in many of the homes, fun activities and song circles, daily connection with housemates and the same staff, all these are game changers for loved ones with memory loss. And the love and care, you can feel in every house where hugs and care are obvious, care providers stay basically the same and know people they care for well, day to day routines are interesting but not unpredictable. No one sits in their room and languishes here. Why isn’t the the model for care facilities world wide? Thank you EHL for making my moms life what it is today.”
