Memory Care Questions & Answers in Beaverton, Oregon

It may be time when keeping your loved one safe at home takes more than one person can give: think wandering, missed medications, falls, or a caregiver running on empty. Planning should start when an Alzheimer's or related dementia diagnosis is made, because early support can help preserve remaining abilities. Our article on why you shouldn't wait too long to move a loved one into memory care covers the signs. Whenever you're ready, call (503) 520-1112. We're here to listen, never to rush you.

We care for seniors living with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. Our Types of Dementia page explains Alzheimer's, frontotemporal dementia, Lewy body dementia, vascular dementia, mixed dementia, Parkinson's disease dementia, early-onset dementia and mild cognitive impairment. Since every diagnosis (and every person!) is different, care starts with an assessment and an individualized service plan. Call (503) 520-1112 and let's talk about whether Murray Highland is the right fit for your loved one.
