Providence Brookside Memory Care is an assisted living and memory care community located in Hood River, Oregon, in the picturesque setting of the Columbia River Gorge. Situated next to Providence Down Manor and the Hood River County Senior Center, the community offers a range of services for seniors needing varying levels of care. Residents can enjoy the comfort of their own apartments, furnished with items from their own homes, while receiving assistance from trained staff available round-the-clock, overseen by a registered nurse.
For individuals with dementia or Alzheimer's Disease, Providence Brookside Manor provides specialized care in secure "neighborhoods" with no more than 12 units. These areas are designed to create a homelike environment where residents can receive personalized attention and support. Family and friends can access these neighborhoods with a security code, ensuring the safety and well-being of residents. Staff members undergo regular training to better understand the changing needs of those under their care.
The community also offers respite care options for family members or caregivers who may need a break. In addition, Providence Brookside Manor hosts a program for individuals with dementia to engage in socialization and activities, aimed at maximizing their intellectual and social abilities. The focus is on providing a supportive setting where participants can interact and enjoy meaningful experiences.
As part of their commitment to sustainability, Providence Brookside Manor has installed a 53.9-kilowatt solar array, thanks to the support of Pacific Power’s Blue Sky renewable energy program customers. This initiative underscores the community's dedication to environmental responsibility and reducing their carbon footprint. Through their mission to express God's healing love, witnessed through the ministry of Jesus, Providence Brookside Memory Care is dedicated to serving all individuals, with a particular focus on those who are poor and vulnerable. Their core values of compassion, dignity, justice, excellence, and integrity guide their approach to care and service.
